MEGADETH - MUSTAINE UNDERGOES SURGERY

MUSTAINE UNDERGOES SURGERY

MEGADETH frontman DAVE MUSTAINE will undergo surgery on Thursday (30Jul09) to mend his inured back and neck.
In a blog posting, the singer reveals he has been suffering excruciating pain and will check into hospital this week for an operation to fix damaged vertebrae in time for the band's upcoming tour, which kicks off in September (09).
Mustaine will then undergo more serious surgery later in the year, when the roadshow is over.
He writes, "I have been working with a very badly damaged neck and the few lower vertebrae, right beneath my neck in between my shoulders, is damaged too. What I have currently injured, and am requiring the start of what could be a very quick and painless procedure. I would work my a** off to heal again, like I did with my arm injury, and should be back in the saddle in no time.
"I will have to get a much more complicated procedure done, between my shoulders, after I get back from this year's touring which will end sometime short of the Christmas holidays.
"I am asking for you to please send some prayers, and good thoughts my way on Thursday morning at 10.30am PST, July 30."
