Megadeth is breaking all kinds of records
The numbers are in! Megadeth‘s “Rust In Peace Live” CD sold a massive 3,000 copies! Wow!
The album, capturing some legendary self-indulgent show, debuted at number 161 on The BillBoard 200, which means at least there were 39 other albums who did worse so it’s not all bad news.
When asked for a comment, Dave Mustaine refused, citing being busy with unwrapping 2,000 CDs he just ordered from Amazon.
Airbourne to play next year's Wacken
The highly original Airbourne have been confirmed for next year’s Wacken Open Air festival in Germany. Also confirmed are Blind Guardian, Apocalyptica, Suicidal Tendencies, and Avantasia.
