Megadeth Officially Resurrect Gigantour

I mean, what do you say. Megadeth has brought Gigantour back after four years of dormancy. Not only will Megadeth be on the fucking revived Gigantour, but — as we reported weeks ago — so will Volbeat, Lacuna Coil, and the almighty Motorhead. Mustaine referred to Volbeat as “a great band that’s coming up.” Sure — handpicked.
All of the band’s on the tour were personally picked by Megadeth mainman Dave Mustaine. Gigantour 2012 will kick off early next year, with dates tentatively set for late January through early March.
Conceived in 2005, Gigantour last three years, and never actually came close to being as popular as Ozzfest or Mayhem or even Snocore.
The last one boasted Children of Bodom, In Flames, High on Fire, and Job For A Cowboy. I didn’t go. I went to the first one. I forget who was even on it.
Remember that Megadeth’s new album TH1RT3EN comes out November 1 through Roadblunder.
Mustaine first mentioned he would bring back Gigantour back in July.
