I guess having a new guitarist has not given the band enough break to learn new songs... I sure would like to see some different older material mixed in. Some other songs from "Peace Sells" and "So Far So Good" would be nice instead othe same ol ones. Could be a far worse set than this though.

I've seen this band three times (maybe four if I decide to go to Gigantour) in the last few years and the setlist is so redundant it's ridiculous.

Call 'em Dejadeth...

hahaha no really i haven't seen these dudes(well this one dude) since the countdown tour way back when with suicidal tendencies. i will be there in a month though. this setlist aint that bad i suppose.can i get a hellyeah for take no prisoners.

i would like to also see maybe the conjuring or good mourning/black friday, five magics and dread and the fugitive mind but i guess they can't play em all.

lookin forward to this tour though.love high on fire and bodom. never seen in flames so that will be a treat although they won't be playing much old stuff which is a bummer. but i don't hate on their newer stuff(am i the only one who likes soundtrack to your
escape?)

np - iron maiden - the nomad

Still a great list of songs. Hell, they didn't even play Hangar 18 when I saw them open for Heaven and Hell.

the set list is much like the new album... predictable and for the most part.... forgetable.

I am in agreement with the masses that more ...Killing.. and ..so far.. material would be great. Also... Holy Wars (personal fav) and Devil's Island.

Just as the guitar solos are not interchangeable, Dave does a good job delivering the vocals, as recorded. Must be tough after a few hundred times but still appreciated.

Broderick rips the lead

And yes Mr MIQ, I can read. Maybe too closely at times

NO 'A Tout Le Monde'. I hated that song on Youthanasia and I especially hate it now on United Abominations.

Probably the worst Megadeth song this side of 'Breadline' or 'Almost Honest'.

COMMENT | dave probably cant play liar sober

No chance in hell Metallica could create such a brilliant song like 'Sleepwalker', these days. It's a killer one.

Megadeth decided to play Mechanix following Holy Wars in ABQ last night. Dave was on fire the entire night!

I agree that they should play A Toute Le Monde. First of their songs I ever heard. I have seen some people bashing In Flames new album. Saying it's "Pure S..t". Well, it's not. It flows nicely. AND you can hear more of what he is saying. Not that I give a s..t about the meaning, I just like to hear what I'm listening to instead of a ton of screaming. But yeah. I still think this will be good tour. One hell of a way to spend a day.
