BLECH! Not a line-up I would be interested in seeing. Since I've seen Megadeth 5x over the years, I doubt I would go see this line-up. |

| I'd be down with seeing Megadeth (only seen them once, many years ago supporting Judas Priest on their PAINKILLER tour) and Lacuna Coil (Cristina is so damn cute) but I'm not a fan of the other bands. I assume that Cristina will come out onstage with Deth every night and recreate her duet with Dave on "A Tout Le Monde (Set Me Free)"??? |

| Not a show I would go see. I'm not a fan of Devildriver, though I will say that it's a MUCH better band than Dez's previous group! _________________ What a strange, strange freedom. Only free to choose my chains.

I wonder how the "Droogs" will repond to this?
And Dez's old band really sucked and I don't like this one either except the guitar player or bass player who headbangs all cool.
Ps. shitty lineup |

| I went to Gigantour last year. I only liked two bands that time which were Overkill and Megadeth. This lineup I only like one band. Plus I absolutely HATE Static X!! |

| After having Dream Theater, Nevermore and Symphony -X... what happened?? This current line-up is definitley not for musicians like Dave's original intention! |

| these bands fit in with Megadeths current style. more commercial type metal. nothing wrong with it. _________________   |

| I saw Gigantour 2005 & 2006 and they both had decent line-ups. You can read my thoughts on those tours here: http://www.nolifetilmetal.com/compilations.htm Just scroll down to the Gigantour compilations (of which there are three.)
2006 MEGADETH ~ LAMB OF GOD ~ OPETH ~ ARCH ENEMY OVERKILL ~ INTO ETERNITY ~ SANCTITY ~ THE SMASHUP
2005 MEGADETH ~ DREAM THEATER ~ ANTHRAX ~ NEVERMORE ~ SYMPHONY X ~ DRY KILL LOGIC ~ FEAR FACTORY ~ BOBAFLEX ~ LIFE OF AGONY
As for this year's tour, think I will pass. I'm not a fan of any of those band except Megadeth.

| Wish I would've caught the first two tours, this one does look pretty weak. |

| Got to see the first Gigantour. I was late and had the privilege of missing the majority of the metalcore bands, Symphony X's sound was a little muffled due to the setup of the previous bands, and I had to leave before Megadeth because my buddy who was with me had a heart condition that was complicated due to Dream Theater's massive light show. Despite that it was an awesome experience that (for me) ended with Dream Theater, Burton C. Bell, Sir Russel Allen, and Dave Mustaine doing a mind-blowing rendition of Cemetary Gates (a tribute to the late, great, Dimebag). Was looking forward to last years tour but Dave didn't bring it anywhere close to where I live (would have loved to see Arch Enemy, Overkill, Opeth, and Megadeth). Now hearing this line up I'm not sure I'd go even if it did come to me, except to see Megadeth but I'd be better off waiting for Megadeth to tour solo. |
