Suicide Silence Kicked Off Megadeth Tour?

Metal Injection reports that there might be some drama between MEGADETH frontman Dave Mustaine and SUICIDE SILENCE, who were opening for MegaDave on his recent tour. It all started when SUICIDE SILENCE issued a statement saying they won't be playing the last show of the tour, which read:

"We're sorry to announce that we won't be playing tonight in Reno, NV. Megadeth, Warbringer, and Arcanium will still be there so head out and show your support for those awesome bands!"

Then Lambgoat received a news bit, which they published uncredited:

"Suicide Silence not allowed to play Reno due to Dave Mustaine's ego. Kicked off last two days of tour and had laminates removed."

This bit was confirmed by a tweet Suicide Silence drummer Alex Lopez posted, which has since been deleted:

"Dave Mustaine kicked us off the Megadeth tour cuz he wanted to take our laminates for a little incident weeks ago, so we told him to fuck off."

And that was followed by a tweet by bassist Dan Kenny stating:

"I would love a fist fight with Dave Mustaine… I hear he is quite good at MMA; I would triangle him in a second!"

We'll have more on this story when and if more solid details come to light.

Or could it be that Dave thought they didn't suck enough to make Megadeth look better.

Surprised about Mustaine's ego or surprised about the worst band I currently know of getting kicked of a tour with Megadeth? Scratch that, the answer to either is no.

Think you need to put your pacifier back in there VNM.

Are you surprised? Dave Mustaine runs the f***ing show on that tour... obviously what do those kids think is going to happen if they tell him to "f*** off" which I doubt they have the balls to say. Tweeting fags. And for the record Suicide Silence is probably the most overhyped new band this year. They suck. Get over it Suicide Silence you blew stop b****ing.

ok, im sure the reason dave mustaine is kicking them off tour is cos he is sick of ss little scene kids plauging their shows. ss are better than megadeth in my opinion but their fans are so annoying. also if dave is getting attention he has a cry about it. and thats why he kicked them off tour

Only during this occasion do I agree with Mustaine's choice and actions. I mean its Suicide Silence, what have they done to tour with the likes of Megadeth? And if their music isn't terrible enough, just listen to the remixes they did recently! They've just jumped on the bandwagon on what these scene/core bands are now doing!

Yeah, dude. I think Suicide Silence is just another one of those bands that just sound like all-breakdown. Quite unoriginal. I know Dave is a prick, but I can't blame him for kicking an extremely sub-par band off of his tour.

I'm just happy that for once, Mustaine's ego put him at odds with an actual sh**ty band.

f*** Suicide Silence. f*** them hard, f*** them fast, and dont call them back the next day, in fact, dont even pay for their cab ride home the next morning, tell them to foot it. Terrible band, just terrible.

All this metalcore sh** is really getting out of hand anyway. SS has no right touring with legends like Megadeth in the first place.

Haha glad they got kicked off, not sure if the "drama" part is true or not but Suicide Silence can die.

I personally like metalcore if its progessive and interesting and such, like After the Burial and old Between the Buried and Me. I guess the people that don't like it should probably thank Suicide Silence. When a band that generic is that popular it pretty much marks the death of the genre. Now people will start making watered down versions of Suicide Silence which will then become popular, then that will become popular and people will copy it and water it down. And this equation will repeat itself until metalcore just sounds like Nickleback. Oh well.

Definately couldn't listen to more than one song of these guys in a row...but if I was REALLY p***ed off it might be allright...for one song. haha. they're definately nothing special by any means. I'm with whoever said...how the f*** did these guys get on a Megadeth tour?? lol

Suicide Silence f***ING SUCKS. Most of their fans consist of emo fags and metal wannabe posers. I witnessed this first hand when i saw them open for CARCASS. True, Megadeth doesnt seem as extreme now as it did back in the day, but i would pick Megadeth any day over Suicide Silence or any deathcore band for that matter.
