Gigantour 2008
Legendary Megadeth guitarist Dave Mustaine’s creation of one of the biggest heavy metal tours grows with each passing year. Since 2005, his decision to take an arsenal of great metal bands on tour with Megadeth has been nothing but positive and 2008 is no different. This year’s meaty lineup includes heavy metal juggernauts Megadeth, Sweden’s own In Flames, Finland’s metal masters Children Of Bodom, and American newcomers Job For A Cowboy and High On Fire.
