According to Megadeth.com, MEGADETH has topped the Readers' Poll in Japan's Burrn! magazine for the year 2007 in the following categories:

* Best Live In Japan (2007 Japan tour)
* Shining Star (Dave Mustaine)
* Best Tune ("Washinton Is Next!")

The results of the poll are published in the March 2008 issue of Burrn!

A 17-minute version of the interview MTV Finland conducted with MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine on February 4, 2008 prior to the band's concert in Helsinki can be viewed at this location (Windows Media). In this interview, Dave talks about Finland, the TV series "24", charity, new music, lineup changes, LED ZEPPELIN, Jeff Beck and more.

The Helsinki show marked MEGADETH's live debut with new guitarist Chris Broderick (ex-JAG PANZER, NEVERMORE).
