Is DAVE MUSTAINE Gonna Watch METALLICA Perform With LADY GAGA At This Weekend’s GRAMMY AWARDS?

During an appearance on yesterday’s (Friday, February 10) edition of SEX PISTOLS guitarist Steve Jones’s radio present, “Jonesy’s Jukebox”, on the 95.5 KLOS station in Los Angeles, MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine confirmed that he’ll attend this weekend’s Grammy Awards.

MEGADETH is nominated for a 2017 Grammy Award for “Best Metal Performance” for the title song of “Dystopia”. This marks the band’s twelfth Grammy nomination in this class. Megadeth is hoping to win its first Grammy at the 59th annual event, which will likely be held on February 12 at Staples Center in Los Angeles and broadcast on CBS at 8 p.m. ET.

Dave Mustaine’s former band, METALLICA, is scheduled to perform with pop celebrity Lady Gaga at this yr’s Grammy Awards. The group is up for the Grammy Award for “Best Rock Track” for the track “Hardwired” from its new album, “Hardwired… To Self-Destruct”.

Regarding MEGADETH’s “Dystopia” nomination, Mustaine informed the WRIF radio station in Detroit, Michigan: “I am really, really excited. You know, it’s hard, after getting nominated several times, to not become just a little bit jaded, ’cause this is our twelfth nomination. It is great to be nominated — don’t get me wrong; I love it — but it’s also very bittersweet.

“Lots of people would question, ‘Do I wanna go there again and not get chosen to win?’,” he continued.

“I think it is nice to be nominated, even if you do not win, since you get that recognition from all of your peers, and people get to see it that may not know who you’re.”

Mustaine added: “I do think that it is sort of a drag sometimes when people win that are so obvious that they weren’t supposed to win. There have been some times over time — not just the ones that I was in, but another ones — where the bands won and they had nothing to do with metal. I think the most famous one was the JETHRO TULL one,” referring to the time in 1989 when METALLICA lost the “Best Hard Rock/Heavy Metal Recording” Grammy to flute-driven progressive rockers JETHRO TULL.

MEGADETH lately accomplished a month-long U.S. tour with AMON AMARTH, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, METAL CHURCH and BUTCHER BABIES.
