MEGADETH Drummer: 'Turkey?? What Turkey??'

November 23, 2007

MEGADETH drummer Shawn Drover has issued the following update:

"Turkey?? What turkey??

"I hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving yesterday. I, unfortunately, slept through most of it. I fell asleep during the second quarter of the Green Bay/Detroit game, and woke up during the fourth quarter of the Dallas game. Needless to say, I missed out on most of the food, etc. but man, I needed to sleep — that 16-hour time difference from Brisbane to Atlanta is killing me. I feel pretty good today, though — I think I am going to take a good walk on this awesome-looking fall day.

"OK, enough of that...

"As you know, [the Australian Gigantour] went off without a hitch and was a success all around. The crowds were so great, as they always are in the land of Oz — lots of cool sites as well. The beach in Perth, being my personal fave, as I was there each morning at 7 a.m. watching the surfers, etc. (The 'Damien - Omen 2' birds woke me up each morning, so sleeping in was not an option)

"All in all, very good memories of my time in Australia... Actually, all of the Pacific Rim tour, come to think of it.

"As I write this, I am spending quality time with my family. I am making plans to go and see the Atlanta Thrashers play my Toronto Maple Leafs, as I have a killer box seat hook-up.

"My brother Brian just informed me that my niece, Tara, went to school with Brian Little (great Thrashers player) so I will be paying close attention to him, though ultimately, I do want the Maple Leafs to win. It will be a fun time, regardless."
