It was the greatest show ever ... dave mustaine is a true legend.... people going insane everywhere .. i have to tell everyone cause im still so pumped lol ..... any megadeth fans in here at all Posted by Yates (Member # 5391) on :
Oh yeah, I love me some Megadeth.
They have to be one of the only hard metal bands from the 80's I still dig. Because they never changed their style, unlike many other bands did.
I try to see them everytime they come to Florida but I missed them last time around.
And look at this........They are going to tour with my all time favorite Dream Theater.
Can't wait to see this tour, just hope they make a stop down here.
Hey i think gigi is a bit of a metal fan 2 .... do u like megadeth gigi ... i know u like some metallica....

I never got as heavily into Megadeth as I did into Iron Maiden, Helloween, Metallica, Anthrax, and some of the others back in the 1980s. But, I still always had a working respect for them as a band, and I enjoyed what I heard of their music. I'd certainly consider Rust in Peace to be one of the best heavy metal albums of all time. Dream Theater was one of my favorite bands during the early 90s, so I may have to check both of them out when they come around on tour this time. Sounds like a good bill!

I dunno, seems like Megadeth tried to change their style with that disaterous album "Risk." I first got into them in college when "Peace Sells" came out. They made pretty good solid albums like most of my favorite 80's metal bands like CJ mentioned above. In fact, I saw every one of the groups CJ mentioned above on more than one occasion back in..."the day." Megadeth was the only one of those I never saw. I did catch Slayer, Motorhead, Exodus, Overkill, Queensryche and Celtic Frost as well come to think of it.

Dream Theater and Megadeth kick ass.
I like Rust in Peace, and pretty much everything DT has done.
Ozzfest has Maiden on it, as well as some other heavy metal bands, but unfortunately there is a lot of that fake hardcore bullshit on it too.
Sounds of the Underground tour has my all-time favorite band Opeth on it, but there are a bunch of screamo bands there, might leave early. :\

Yeah, I knew about Maiden being there and I actually contemplated going for that reason alone. In the end I decided against it though since it's not being held at any good local venues. Also, Maiden was really the only band that I would've wanted to see from the whole line-up so I guess it isn't really worth it anyway for me. Besides, I've seen Maiden live on a couple of other occasions. The only thing that really had me intrigued though is that I heard that Maiden is planning to do a setlist that involves material specifically from their older catalog (first 4 albums). If that's true, that's bound to be an awesome experience for diehard old-skool Maiden fans like me. If anybody's going then I hope they enjoy themselves!

I've seen Maiden 6 times and wanted to see them at Ozzfest since Sabbath and Maiden are my two all time favorite metal bands. HOWEVER, Maiden is not going to be with Ozzfest when they come to Dallas, so I ain't gonna catch it. I'm really actually tired of listening to the older stuff (have been listening to it since '82) and actually enjoy the recent concerts when they played lots of newer material even though it turned a lot of the fans off.
