Justis Mustaine Comments On Dropping Havok From Upcoming Megadeth Tour

As previously reported, Havok were dropped off the upcoming Megadeth, Amon Amarth, Suicidal Tendencies, and Metal Church tour, due to an apparent contract negotiation between them and Mustaine Management that went wrong. Now, Dave Mustaine’s son Justis, who runs Mustaine Management has commented on the situation:

“I worked with Havok for one year. Despite getting Havok paid, marketed and exposed in that time- bringing them a new merch deal, booking agent, and overseeing what has clearly been their biggest year yet – I was compensated poorly for my work. I finally put a contract in front of them, which would secure me 15% of income (the industry standard). They refused to agree, so I dropped them. I wish Havok all the best in their efforts to be a professional band, but as evidenced by today’s gossip-mongering, they’ve still got a long way to go.
Great music, great band!”
