Mustaine—will make its highly anticipated return for
the first time since 2008. The multi-artist

LACUNA
COIL all personally picked by
MEGADETH frontman
DAVE
MUSTAINE—will kick off January 26 in Camden,
NJ. Before wrapping February 28 in Denver, CO, the
tour will make stops all across the U.S. and Canada
including a January 28 show in New York and February

MEGADETH has also teamed up with
VIPNation.com to

for all the details.
GIGANTOUR is a chance to, as MUSTAINE says, tour with like-minded artists “that play heavy music in a high-energy environment,” with a fan-friendly ticket price. He founded the tour in 2005 and invited such artists as Anthrax, Dream Theater, Fear Factory, Lamb of God, Opeth, Static-X and In Flames to join MEGADETH.
Lemmy, frontman of the legendary MOTÖRHEAD, looks forward to performing at this year’s GIGANTOUR amongst all the other talented musicians.
