Peace sells and Megadeth is buying
It's been rumored for several weeks that this year's
Metalist festival was going to have a huge act. Megadeth is the band. I'm kind of stoked. But sadly, tribe member Marty Friedman's guitar wizardry will be lacking since he left the band a few years ago. A metalhead friend ensures me that Dave Mustaine has surrounded himself with youngens who are up to the task. I don't know. To me it feels like seeing the Beach Boys without Brian Wilson. But screw it, I'll go anyway.
YNET gets it wrong when they say this will be Megadeth's first visit to Israel. They played Cinerama Theatre in Tel Aviv in April of 95.
