(Gibson) Thoughts and prayers go out to Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine. During Wednesday's (Sept. 14) "Big Four" concert at Yankee Stadium in New York City, Mustaine announced he will have to endure surgery on his neck after injuring it during a show on the Mayhem Festival tour.At first, Megadeth considered canceling the show, due to Mustaine's condition. "I shouldn't even be here," Mustaine said, via the New York Post. But, they decided to perform one last time before Mustaine heads for the surgical bed.
