SYMPHONY X Confirmed For GIGANTOUR

May 13, 2005

MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine has posted the following message in the "Forums" section of the band's official web site:

"I am honored to announce that the fantastic group SYMPHONY X has confirmed to join us for Gigantour this summer in the U.S.

"I am triple stoked, and I know you will be too. This is a great opportunity for both MEGADETH and SYMPHONY X fans to discover each other. AND they come highly recommended by Mike Portnoy [DREAM THEATER] and the Drover brothers.

"I would like to personally thank the lads in SYMPHONY X for pushing the recording of their new record back in order to support my dreamchild of Gigantour. I look forward to meeting Mike Romeo and his crew and treating them better than they have ever been treated on any tour they have done."

Gigantour is a six-week festival trek co-headlined by MEGADETH and DREAM THEATER. Other main-stage acts include FEAR FACTORY, THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN and NEVERMORE. Also scheduled to appear on the second stage are DRY KILL LOGIC.
