Megadeth's Gigantour 2012 dates announced
Wed, 02 Nov 2011
Megadeath are re-launching their Gigantour next year (2012) and Dave Mustaine is planning to take Motorhead, Volbeat & Lacuna Coil along for the ride, according to Megadeth .com
The critically acclaimed package festival founded in 2005 by the metal godfathers will make its return for the first time since 2008.
Motorhead frontman Lemmy said (via Gibson):
"The whole bill is pretty diverse and I advise everyone who likes being deaf, and/or can lip-read already, to come out and see what the stuff that doesn’t get any MTV Video Awards sounds like! Gigantour is just that! Megadeth are one of the greatest bands to tread a stage anywhere and me and Dave have been promising each other we’d tour together ever since we met!"
