DAVE MUSTAINE & JASON NEWSTED Jamming On Old METALLICA Is One Step Closer To Happening

So, Newsted is confirmed for Gigantour, the festival tour that Dave Mustaine is throwing. We know this. Then, a few weeks ago, Newsted hinted that maybe he and Dave might get up on stage and jam an old Metallica song that Mustaine wrote.

At the time, I was playing it off as Newsted being all talk, but now, Mustaine has commented on it as well, leading me to believe this is a very strong possibility.

Mustaine tweeted earlier this weekend:

Does anybody else feel a bit weird about this? To me, personally, I feel like Dave Mustaine is above this, which is something I very rarely say. This is his tour. And, with Newsted trying to do his own thing, I don't think he should shy away from his past, but maybe focus on the new material? The cynical part of me feels the whole reason they're doing this is so more people mention Gigantour, for which they've clearly succeeded as I'm writing about this!

At the same time, the less cynical side of me thinks hey, maybe it's just a few dudes that wanna have a bit of fun and get up on stage and jam! I guess it would be a sight to see these guys play old Metallica tunes.

How do you feel? Are you in or are you out?
