Megadeth and Lamb Of God Announce North American Co-Headlining Tour

There have been rumblings about Megadeth and Lamb Of God working on something together for a few weeks now. Some wondered if that would be the re-ignition of Mayhem Fest, though the organizers claimed that wasn't the case. Now, the two bands have announced their plans: a massive North American co-headlining tour, with Trivium and In Flames opening for them.

'Massive' isn't just a reference to the scope of the bands, either -- the tour has legs in both summer and fall, and includes multiple stops in Canada. That plus two of the biggest bands in metal history trading headliners -- and two of the biggest contemporary legends opening for them -- make this an impressive trek.
