MEGADETH will support the Canadian leg of the Heaven and Hell tour, according to a posting of frontman Dave Mustaine in the forum of the band’s official site:
“So, there are going to be some kewl surprises on this new leg, but we are only going to be playing 45 minutes. Hopefully that can be massaged into 60, but this is just our first time for this record through a beautiful country that half of MEGADETH hail from now, so once we are done demolishing our way through the HEAVEN AND HELL tour, we will be back to Canada for our own dates; if not this year, for sure by Gigantour 2008.
“I know we are going to be playing at around 180 mph to cram as many songs in the 45 minutes, much like the now famous (or infamous, if you will) Download Festival.
“I look forward to being reunited with my bandmates and crew, as well as getting back on the road. This is going to be a very interesting tour. I can’t wait!”
