Watch MEGADETH play METALLICA’s Ride The Lightning for the first time

MEGADETH have chosen the second night of their This Was Our Life tour to play their cover of METALLICA‘s Ride The Lightning for the first time.

Dave Mustaine & Co. performed the song – which the frontman co-wrote during his tenure with METALLICA in the early 1980s, and which MEGADETH recorded for their current, self-titled album – at the 14,000-capacity Movistar Arena in Bogota, Colombia.

MEGADETH‘s This Was Our Life tour will arrive in Europe in May, before the band return to the US to play on IRON MAIDEN’s Run For Your Lives tour in July.
