Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine recalls going to a pretty messy gig at the iconic Cuckoo’s Nest punk club in California, where things got “carnal and out of control”. On the digital version of Megadeth’s latest record, The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead!, the band covers the Dead Kennedys song Police Truck.
