MEGADETH and
IMAGE
ENTERTAINMENT
have
confirmed
the March 6,
2007 release
of “THE ONE
NIGHT: LIVE
IN BUENOS
AIRES” live
DVD. The
show was
filmed live
at Obras
Stadium,
Buenos
Aires,
Argentina on
October 9,
2005 before
a rabid
audience of
over 25,000
fans. The
90-plus
minute film
and CD
features
songs
encompassing
MEGADETH’s
career,
ranging from
their 1986
album Peace
Sells…But
Who’s Buying
through
2004’s The
System Has
Failed. A CD
version will
be released
March 27.
“This was
one of the
greatest
nights of my
life,” says
MEGADETH
founder and
frontman
DAVE
MUSTAINE. “I
am glad I
was able to
document it
and share it
with you.
‘That One
Night’ is a
lesson in
metal
fanaticism
by some of
the best
participating,
most
frenzied,
and intense
concert-goers
in the
world! I
have waited
ten years to
show the
rest of the
world how
much
Megadeth and
Argentina
love each
other. If
seeing this
doesn't
convince you
how lethal a
Megadeth
concert in
Argentina
with some
very close
personal
friends can
be, don't
worry…you're
already
dead.”
MEGADETH
recently
wrapped up a
leg of dates
in Japan and
Australia,
as well as
their second
annual
GIGANTOUR
festival
tour of the
U.S., which
included
Lamb of God,
Opeth, Arch
Enemy,
Overkill,
Into
Eternity,
Sanctity and
The
Smash-Up.
The
multi-act,
two-stage
festival ran
September 6
through
October 8. A
DVD and CD
of last
year’s
inaugural
GIGANTOUR
was also
released by
Image
Entertainment.
In a review
of the New
York
GIGANTOUR
show, Ben
Ratliff of
the New York
Times noted:
"Mr.
Mustaine was
one of
speed-metal’s
originators,
and his
double-time
riffs are
propulsive;
bending over
his guitar,
long blond
tresses
hanging
down, he
gives his
solos the
direct
feeling of
wrestling
with the
music as he
plays it,
with some
chaos and
aggression"
(September
30, 2006).
Since
wrapping up
GIGANTOUR
2006,
MUSTAINE and
the
band--guitarist
GLEN DROVER,
drummer
SHAWN DROVER
and bassist
JAMES
LOMENZO--have
been working
on a new CD,
set for
release in
2007 via
Roadrunner
Records.
