MEGADETH Guitarist Celebrates 40th Birthday In Calgary

March 8, 2010

MEGADETH guitarist Chris Broderick has issued the following update:

"Thanks for all the birthday wishes!!

"I had a great time in Calgary [on March 6 as part of MEGADETH's tour with TESTAMENT and EXODUS].

"It's funny how in the three years I have been in MEGADETH, I have always been on tour during my birthday, and I have to say that all of you have made these times unbelievably fun (what better way to spend it then with all of my friends?).

"I am never one to really celebrate my birthday and I was hoping that no one knew but when Chuck Billy [TESTAMENT vocalist] started to bring the birthday cake up on stage, I knew I was in for it. Ahahahah.

"I now know that Dave [Mustaine, guitar/vocals], Dave [Ellefson, bass], and Shawn [Drover, drums] knew far in advance and were planning this (thanks to you all). The most hilarious part was when Chuck threw the cake into the crowd and some of the fans just let the cake rain down on them."

Check out video footage below.

Chris Broderick joined MEGADETH in late 2007 as the replacement for Glen Drover (brother of current MEGADETH drummer Shawn Drover).

Glen Drover is currently filling in for Alex Skolnick on TESTAMENT's North American tour with MEGADETH and EXODUS while Skolnick is busy on the road with his ALEX SKOLNICK TRIO.
