Rumors

MEGADETH & LAMB OF GOD Will Tour This Year, But It Will Not Be On Mayhem Fest

While we were pretty amped over the rumors of Megadeth and Lamb of God possibly headlining the upcoming return of Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, festival organizers have officially thrown water on our embers of hope.

"The rumors are not true," organizers wrote on Facebook. "We love Megadeth & Lamb Of God but have something completely different in mind for you later this year.."

Last week, Chicago DJ/promoter Nick Fury (Forever Deaf Fest) leaked what appears to be the tour's July 10 stop in Tinley Park, Illinois.

According to Blabbermouth, full tour details for the Megadeth/Lamb of God pairing will be revealed tomorrow (Monday), which marks Dave Mustaine's first US tour since revealing and beating cancer.

Lamb of God will be touring in support of their upcoming self-titled album, due out March 8 via Nuclear Blast.

The band released their first single "Checkmate" with new drummer Art Cruz earlier this week. Pre-orders are available here.
