Megadeth's South America tour has not been going to so great. A fan got stabbed in Argentina, a show in Paraguay got cancelled over security concerns, and then on August 26 the band's El Salvador show got cancelled due to extreme weather. The band got through "Hangar 18" and "The Threat Is Real" before pulling the plug on the gig during heavy storms.
Dave Mustaine has since taken to Twitter to point out that the promoter didn't tell fans the band left, that their gear was ruined, and has confirmed that the show will be made up at some point. So y'know, more good times on tour! Was the venue not aware that you can track weather on the Internet?
San Salvador, thank you for coming. I'm sorry the rains came and we could only play two songs. I guess we'll be making this show up too! ?☔️

To the fans that refuse to understand the show is over. Our gear is soaked, we are done. If you keep insulting me, you'll be muted.

It's pouring, lightning was right over us, our gear's ruined, & the promoter knows we left but won't tell the fans. https://t.co/4UPH4RqhjR

I am more concerned that the fans are ok. A giant metal structure in an open field during lightning ain't too smart! https://t.co/8yV0iN6dZi
