Megadeth are currently on their last tour ever after 43 years – but Dave Mustaine is teasing another “f**king massive” announcement
As we all know, Megadeth are finally calling it a day after 43 years of thrashing. However, frontman Dave Mustaine seems to have one final card up his sleeve…
In an interview with Turkey’s Apaçık Radyo, Mustaine revealed that there’s a “fucking massive” Megadeth announcement on the horizon. With plans to reveal it later this month, Mustaine can hardly contain his excitement, teasing: “It’s out of this world, let me say it like that… I gave you a clue right there!” [via Blabbermouth]

For now, all we can do is speculate. However, last November, Mustaine did suggest a rather “out of this world” goal in conversation with Metal Hammer; when discussing his ultimate dream for the farewell tour, Mustaine said that he would love to see Megadeth out amongst the stars. “I hope we’ll be playing up in space,” he said. “I think that will be a really fitting climax.”
“And I’m not talking about on the side of a vomit comet!” he insisted. “A gig on the moon – a full moon landing. That would be cool!”
Of course, there’s no guarantee as to what the plan really is. While we are yet to find out if Mustaine is going to be knocking out a space suit, we do, however, have confirmation that he’ll be hopping into a set of swim shorts in the near future.
That’s right, there’s going to be another Megacruise. “We got another Megacruise we’re starting to work on… the Peace Sails cruise,” he reveals.
Back in 2019, Mustaine was unfortunately too ill to join fans on the Megacruise due to his throat cancer diagnosis. This time around, he’s keen to hit the high seas. “[Missing the first cruise] was a real shame for me…” he reflects. “That was the beginning of the evidence that I was developing [throat] cancer. And so I had to stay home.”
Megadeth’s Farewell tour has kicked off without a hitch, with many fans lapping up the band’s cover of Metallica’s Ride The Lightning in particular.
