Regarding why he has chosen to sell these items now, MacDonough told BLABBERMOUTH.NET, "I'm in the process moving and for the ten years I've been touring I've aquired a lot of 'swag.' I usually took one of everything but now I have a couple boxes full of things I don't wear and it's just taking up space. I figure [the fans] would enjoy it more than I am so there you go, that's it in a nuttshell. It's not a beef against Dave [Mustaine] and MEGADETH or Jon [Schaffer] and ICED EARTH. I hope [the fans are] able to enjoy some of this stuff. Peace, and you'll be hearing from me soon."
MacDonough's replacement in MEGADETH is James Lomenzo, who has previously played with BLACK LABEL SOCIETY and WHITE LION, among other bands.
Lomenzo will make his live debut with MEGADETH on March 16 at the Desert Rock 2006 festival in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
