MEGADETH Tour Manager Reports On Six Flags New England Performance

November 7, 2006

MEGADETH's official web site, Megadeth.com, has been updated with another journal entry by MEGADETH's assistant tour manager, Tracey Wiedeman. An excerpt from the entry follows:

"Here I sit on another airplane leaving another MEGADETH gig but this time the show had a different flare. On Halloween night MEGADETH premiered their new song 'Gears Of War' at Six Flags New England for a special VIP event for Xbox who has a game of the same name coming out on November 7 th .

"The day could have not started off any better when Jenn and Shaun from Xbox and myself were allowed to take the Superman rollercoaster on a test run. So here are the three of us taking the coaster deemed as the best rollercoaster on the planet for a spin not once, not twice but three times in a row! Talk about a rush! This coaster drops 221 feet on the first hill and rolls at 77mph! The original design of the coaster was supposed to be higher but with the nearby air force base, they had to adhere to certain height restrictions. When we finally decided we had better get back to work, my legs felt so rubbery and it took a while for the spinning in my head to stop!

"Now there is only a short few hours before the band arrives. Therefore we continue with set-up accordingly. As soon as the band arrives we have an appointment with the Xbox gamer Blake who beat the designer of the game in only one day to give the band a tutorial on Gears of War before their interviews with MTV begin."
