Megadeth have returned to play their first show for 2020, and their first since Dave Mustaine was diagnosed with throat cancer in June last year.
The band are currently opening for Five Finger Death Punch on their European tour, and it marks their return to the stage for the first time in 15 months.
Mustaine completed his cancer treatment in October 2019, after previously saying of his diagnosis:
“I was on tour, and I just had some dental work done when I was at home. My teeth are really, really, really sensitive, because I’m a redhead … It just felt like something was wrong in my tooth area.
So I see the oral surgeon, and he was such a cock. I was in the chair, and he looks at me and then he takes off. And I’m sitting there, and I’m waiting and waiting and waiting, and he comes back in and he goes, "It looks like the big C. You need to go see an ear, nose, and throat doctor." I was just stunned with his bedside manner; he was just such a dick.”

It's great to see Dave back in the game!
