Biografía
Megadeth (formed in the mid-1980s) is a pioneering group of the American thrash metal music genre, hailing from Los Angeles, California, U.S.
Formerly the lead guitarist of highly revered metal band Metallica, Dave Mustaine formed Megadeth alongside bassist David Ellefson in 1983. Alongside Anthrax, Metallica and Slayer, Megadeth is credited as being one of the driving forces of thrash metal music over the ‘80s and ‘90s, dropping the progressive rock influences common and instead emphasizing the skills of its instrumentalists.
In the early years, Megadeth’s line-up changed regularly. In 1984, it replaced Lee Rausch with jazz fusion drummer Gar Samuelson and guitarist Chris Poland. The band’s debut album, Killing Is My Business… and Business is Good!, released through Combat Records in 1985, attracted major label interest and became popular in both underground and mainstream metal circles.
After signing with Capitol Records, Megadeth released its major-label debut Peace Sells…But Who’s Buying? in 1986, which eventually went platinum, followed by So Far, So Good… So What! in 1988.
Around that time, Mustaine’s behavior became erratic, leading him to enter rehab and the band to partially break up. After hiring guitarist Marty Friedman and drummer Nick Menza. Megadeth’s fourth studio album Rust in Peace, signaled the group’s return.
In the hope of appealing to the same mainstream audience Metallica did, Megadeth stripped back their sound on Countdown to Extinction in 1992, but lost none of the technical proficiency fans had come to expect. The album was certified double platinum and resulted in Megadeth becoming one of the biggest bands in the world.
Megadeth’s sixth full-length album Youthanasia in 1994 followed the same mainstream trend as its predecessor, and was succeeded by a rare collection of unheard recordings titled Hidden Treasures. The band subsequently released Cryptic Writings in 1997, Risk in 1998 with former Suicidal Tendencies drummer Jimmy DeGrasso, and The World Needs a Hero in 2001.
In 2002 Mustaine relapsed on his drug addiction after receiving pain medication following the removal of a kidney stone. He subsequently suffered nerve damage to his left arm, which left the guitarist unable to use his left arm. After temporarily disbanding Megadeth, Mustaine underwent a great deal of physical and mental therapy before releasing the compilation album Still Alive… and Well?.
The band reformed in 2004, and has since released The System Has Failed (2004), United Abominations (2007), Endgame (2009), Thirteen (2011) and Super Collider (2013). Megadeth has sold over 50 million records worldwide, earned platinum certification for six of their fourteen studio albums. The band has been nominated for 12 Grammy awards, and won its first Grammy for the song “Dystopia” in 2017 for Best Metal Performance.
Due to COVID-19, Megadeth’s tour, The Metal Tour of the Year with Lamb of God, Trivium, and In Flames, was postponed from the summer of 2020 to 2021, with Hatebreed replacing In Flames due to visa complications.
In early 2021, Megadeth announced the upcoming release of its next studio album during a Masterclass Zoom video. Leading up to the album’s release, the song “The Dogs of Chernobyl” dropped and drummed up a lot of fan anticipation. However, before The Sick, the Dying...and the Dead! was officially released, sexually explicit videos of Ellefson surfaced online. He was subsequently dismissed from the band and formally replaced by James LoMenzo.
To create buzz around the replacement, the band released a photo showing the neck of the bass guitar and the new band member without revealing his identity.
Over the course of its 39-year career, Megadeth has had numerous guitarists, drummers, and bassists. Mustaine has the distinction of being the only original band member still in the group. Following the dismissal of Ellefson, the band’s current lineup includes Mustaine, drummer Dirk Verbeuren, guitarist Kiko Loureiro, and bassist James LoMenzo.
To promote the album, the band is currently on tour again. The current tour, The Killing Road, stretches across the globe, hitting several major cities. It will continue through late 2023, so keep an eye on the band’s official website for timely updates on Megadeth tour dates, tickets, and cool fan perks.
The band boasts a dedicated fanbase. In return, Megadeth offers some fantastic fan merchandise and benefits. For the current tour, there are VIP packages available for the die-hard fans out there.
The Exclusive Viewing Area Experience includes a premium reserved ticket or a general admission pit ticket — plus, VIP early access to the venue, a photo with the band, a commemorative VIP laminate, and more. The Q&A Experience includes a premium reserved ticket or a general admission pit ticket — plus, a special Q&A session with the band, exclusive VIP merchandise, and a collectible Megadeth poster.

Membership is open for true Megadeth fans to join the Cyber Army Fan Club. There are multiple levels of membership, including a free tier. The top membership tier, the premium level, comes with loads of perks and exclusive access to members-only contests, giveaways, and prizes.
Megadeth creates tons of fan merchandise. For beer lovers, the band even has its own beer line, which includes two tasty selections: Unibroue Megadeth A Tout Le Monde and Unibroue Megadeth Saison 13. Purchase the gift set, which also comes with a Megadeth-branded pint glass, to try them both.
The band has its own mascot named Vic Rattlehead. The mascot regularly appears on stage with the group during performances and on tours. He is also featured on album cover artwork and promotional materials.
Megadeth hosted its own music festival, dubbed Gigantour, in July 2005 and numerous times since then. The group also had a MegaCruise in October 2019.

Megadeth
Dave Mustaine is consistently one of the most intriguing rock stars in metal. Whether you agree with him 100% of the time or not... it's indisputable that his presence is a marvel to behold. One thing's for certain, from the moment the intro tape stops to the closing notes of "Holy Wars" - a Megadeth show is going to batter you with a high energy, virtuosic, anthem laden roller coster.
Of the many times I've been lucky enough to see Megadeth, I've never seen them deliver a show as impactful as their 2007 Download Festival appearance. Mustaine & co excel when they have a point to prove, they absolutely wanted to make sure they were the band of the weekend... and breezed through to achieve this.
It's been a long held desire of mine to see Megadeth in Buenos Aires, Argentina... Dave Mustaine's favourite place to play. Hearing the South American football crowd like atmosphere on their 'That One Night' DVD is infectious and perfectly demonstrates the magnetic connection a Megadeth devotee can have to their rich catalogue. From their pioneering thrash metal, through to their intelligent hard rock music, Megadeth have the ability to pace a show perfectly and you're in for a treat when you make the very wise decision to buy a ticket.

For me, Havok was the highlight of the night, but do not think that means that the night was any kind of disappointment. Rather, I just think that the half-hour set from Havok was that killer. Havok for me is the Megadeth of the modern era with improvements. Lyrically, they bring a much more thought-provoking game to the table that Megadeth has ever done, and musically Havok is definitively more "thrash." I am not much of a fan of Children of Bodom, and Suicidal Tendencies dropped Houston among other cities from their end of the tour. That meant that, for me, Megadeth was the only one that had the power to really step it up, if anyone. Truthfully, it seemed like they spent too much effort to include songs for which they made videos. I would have been happier with more songs from the newest CD mixed with fewer oldies-but-goodies. I will close by just noting, however, that the newest lineup of members is really good though. Dave's voice was a little weak at times, but the instrument play even through some of the most intense solo parts was nearly flawless whether it was Dave or Kiko. Overall thoughts: Great concert! Havok 5/5; Children of Bodom NR; Suicidal Tendencies NR; Megadeth 4/5.

After driving 90 miles from my home, I arrived at the Sands arena . Vehicles were traveling the wrong way at the entrance. We were rerouted to Casino parking. Cars and suv's were bumper to bumper, honking horns. I almost got t-boned 4 times, rear ended twice and narrowly avoided a head-on collision several times. We went around the 5-level parking garage for over an hour and a half inhaling carbon monoxide. The only thing I got was a headache. No where to park. I got disgusted and drove another 90 miles home. I did not get to see the show. I am hurt, angry and disappointed. I am only grateful for the times I saw Megadeth years ago. The venues suck any more and fans are treated like garbage. My ticket for Megadeth was bought as my birthday present from my significant other from Ticket Master. He also ordered me a Megadeth t-shirt and the Dystopia CD. The shirt and CD NEVER ARRIVED. Tickets to a show we never got to see. A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. NEVER AGAIN. Thanks for nothing.

Megadeth, the American thrash metal band have been recording and touring consistently since their formation in 1983 minus a brief hiatus in the mid 00's. Dave Mustaine and co are known for having one of the most energetic and technical live shows on the circuit and whether you like the frontman or not, you cannot deny his talents as a showman.
Constant interaction with his crowd keeps the show feeling like a unitary experience as everyone is encouraged to sing, clap and mosh along with the rockers onstage. Having only achieved a handful of hits in the UK, Dave's skill is making the audience cheer as loudly for every track picked for the setlist.
Megadeth are an impressive live band as every member endeavours to get the best possible sound out of their instrument and they demonstrate this on extended versions of cult hits such as 'System Of Destruction'. Their dedication to the metal sound is a clue that Megadeth are likely to still be touring thirty years for now should they all be able.

So sick! Havok killed it. Children of Bodom killed it. Suicidal Tendencies killed it. Megadeth killed it. Spent pretty much the entire show getting rocked in the pit, despite breaking my finger at the beginning of the second act. It was pretty awesome to be about 10 feet away from a shredding Dave Mustaine. I'm really glad I attended this show, I definitely would have regretted it if I hadn't.
My last experience at the Warfield was terrible, but it was dub step and our seats were on the balcony. Two things that I can't stand, dub step and not being able to enjoy the pit.
General admission floor tickets for Megadeth definitely changed my mind about the Warfield. I think I just might come back in the near future.

I had a awesome time at the Megadeth concert at Casino Rama! What an amazing show! Dave Mustaine was so interactive with the crowd, pointing out someone in the front row floors sleeping. Maybe on something he would have wanted in the eighties. The sound is amazing in there too! My ears were ringing for hours afterwords. The band has great stage presents even in between songs watching the video screen with the clips and jokes MEGADETH is Awesome! At the very end of the night a guy even jumped on stage Dave shook his hand took a bow with him in front of the crowd. Also threw out every pic, drum stick, wrist bands & song list to the sleeping girl!

AMAZING!!! I had the best time, I just wish I had the money to meet the band. I did get to meet the Drummer from the first band. He was bad ass! Really nice, I just can read their name.
This was the 3rd time seeing Megadeth, second time at the Revention Center. Awsome venue and just the right size. Thankful I was able to get to the front and your security was awesome. They bring you fresh water!
Amazing night!!

Arrived around 7,parking was non existent . Got inside and saw all of Children of Bodom. Excellent musically but vocals were a bit harsh. Suicidal tendencies were solid. Megadeth were excellent yet had issues with the vocals getting washed out by high volume of the instruments. I would have put up with lower volume in order to hear the vocals clearly. Otherwise a great show.

What can I say...I was at a sold out 1,600 person venue with Megadeth literally feet away from me. It was more than awesome. The guitar playing was amazing (from lead, rhythm and bass) and drummer did a solid job. Ellefson was really into it (considering he grew up near here) and Mustaine sounded great and seemed to enjoy it. Highly recommend for anyone with remote interest.

An awesome show that reminded me of the reasons why I love Megadeth. My son was so happy that I took him along too, he said it was the best experience ever and that he now understood what it was like to at 80’s metal music gig. We both can’t wait to see them again. Hope they do their own tour soon.
