MEGADETH TO STREAM 2017 WACKEN PERFORMANCE

 “As we continue to self-quarantine,” says Dave Mustaine, “my thoughts go to all the production teams and road crews out there who count on artists being on the road to make a living. They are the driving force that help make things happen. It’s the road crew that help keep everything running smoothly,” continues Mustaine, “and make the show sound and look the way we envision. MEGADETH’s crew are the best in the business. We are the MEGADETH family and I want to do what I can to help ease some of the financial stress they are currently experiencing.

On August 4, 2017, MEGADETH performed a blistering set to approximately 75,000 metalheads at Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany. This is the first time the performance has been made available online airing originally only in Germany. Kicking off with “Hanger 18,” the band played a mix of classics such as “Wake Up Dead,“ “Peace Sells, “Symphony of Destruction” and “Mechanix,” as well as newer tracks including “Fatal Illusion,” “Poisonous Shadows” and their GRAMMY® Award winning track “Dystopia.”
