This was some seriously bad news. Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine recently said he’s been diagnosed with throat cancer. That means most of the Megadeth shows this year will be canceled. He did say that the Megacruise will still happen October 13-18.

“I’ve been diagnosed with throat cancer. It’s clearly something to be respected and faced head on – but I’ve faced obstacles before. I’m working closely with my doctors, and we’ve mapped out a treatment plan which they feel has a 90% success rate. Treatment has already begun.

I guess that headline can go either way but this it’s actually the funnier way. Megadeth took the stage last night at the 2012 Croatia Metalfest and were not only booed by fans but had beer thrown at them. Apparently W.A.S.P. was supposed to play but claimed that because of Megadeth, they canceled their set. I don’t know why that is but the audience was PISSED. After security stopped the beer bashing, someone was able to throw a rock that hit Dave Mustaine right in the head. Hahahahaha. I’m so glad. Dave is such a douchebag. He’s against gay marriage, claims Obama wasn’t born in the US and has told starving African women to “put a plug in it”. What a dick.

Oh boy, here we go. Dave Mustaine and StarGreetz are developing an interactive app that will teach you how to play Megadeth tunes. Mustaine says: “You don’t have to be good; you just need a guitar, and an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. And most importantly, you need to want to shred like Megadeth.”
