Megadeth frontman to undergo serious neck and back surgery

[Brian Damage]

MEGADETH frontman Dave Mustaine has checked in with the following update:

"Droogies!

When you love someone or something so much that it actually starts to hurt you, yet you continue to stay in a relationship, or in a circumstance, or in a situation where you start to do damage to yourself and others.

Well, I have been working with a very badly damaged neck and the few lower vertebrae, right beneath my neck in between my shoulders is damaged too. What I have currently injured, and am requiring the start of what could be a very quick and painless procedure. I would work my ass off to heal again, like I did with my arm injury, and should be back in the saddle in no time.

I will have to get a much more complicated procedure done, between my shoulders, after I get back from this year's touring which will end sometime short of the Christmas Holidays.

I am asking for you to please send some prayers, and good thoughts my way on Thursday morning at 10:30 AM PST, July 30th.

Thanks to my family; I love you all! Come on Oz!"

MSGD!

Dave's probably been busy finishing the recording of their next album 'Endgame', which is supposed to be out in September. That's most likely why there was no Gigantour this summer.
