Megadeth And Image Entertainment will release That One Night: Live In Buenos Aires, a live double CD set on September 4, 2007. The companion to the gold-certified DVD of the same name that was released earlier this year, the CD set contains 22 tracks, including three–“Skin O’ My Teeth,” “Die Dead Enough” and “Angry Again”–not included on the DVD.
This show was filmed live at Obras Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina on October 9, 2005 before a rabid audience of over 25,000 fans. The disc features songs encompassing Megadeth’s career, ranging from their 1986 album Peace Sells…But Who’s Buying through 2004’s The System Has Failed. “This was one of the greatest nights of my life,” says Megadeth founder and frontman Dave Mustaine. “I am glad I was able to document it and share it with you.”
Megadeth–Mustaine, along with guitarist Glen Drover, drummer Shawn Drover and bassist James Lomenzo–just finished playing festivals overseas and will return to the U.S. for a headlining tour this fall.

WatchMojo NewsletterThis is bound to be an intersting read for anyone who liked Motley Crue, or for anyone who has ever wanted to be a rock star, or for anyone who has ever wanted to be addicted to drugs… ok maybe not that last one.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Motley Crue founding member Nikki Sixx whose brutally honest upcoming book The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star (due September 18th from MTV Pocket Books/Simon & Schuster) chronicles his battles with drug addiction and his road to recovery, will be a featured speaker at the 18th Annual National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month luncheon on Capitol Hill, September 6th. He is the first rock star to speak at this event — a particularly ironic distinction since he was once one of the wildest men in rock.
NAADAC, the Association for Addiction Professionals invited Sixx to share his story at this national forum alongside Terry Cline, Ph.D, Administrator, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and H. Westley Clark, MD, JD, MPH, Director, SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.
The Heroin Diaries, and accompanying CD, The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack, (released August 21st via Eleven Seven Music) offers insight into Sixx’s self- destruction with substance abuse, and his subsequent freedom from addiction. The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack, written and produced by Sixx: A.M. (Sixx, James Michael and DJ Ashba), was inspired by haunting diary entries that became The Heroin Diaries. Although the album was not intended for radio, the lead single, “Life Is Beautiful” is already in the top 20 on the rock radio charts.
Twenty-five percent of the book’s profits go to “Running Wild In The Night” — Sixx’s fundraising initiative for Covenant House California, which helps keep runaway, abused and abandoned youth off the streets.

John Fogerty reclaims his rightful place among America’s most iconic and revered artists with the forthcoming Revival, due October 2nd.
Fogerty’s contribution to popular culture cannot be overstated; his songs have become part of rock’s DNA, the very building blocks upon which much of American rock and roll has been built. As the album title tantalizingly suggests, Revival represents a renewed musical spirit and heart from Fogerty that incorporates all the best elements of a career that has resonated deeply with generations of music fans and the thousands of artists that he has influenced.
“It just seemed like all the records I have made since Creedence Clearwater Revival have all been sort of pushed off center,” he says. “I felt like I was dancing around the outskirts of what is my true center. With this album, I really wanted to stay on the mark, right in the middle, right where rock ‘n’ roll is. I wanted this one to be easier, a lot more fun than some of the past records have been.”
That renewed sense of joy shines through on the self-produced Revival. The wistful, infectious opening track “Don’t You Wish It Was True” instantly puts a smile on the listener’s face. “Gunslinger”’s cinematic western-theme evokes vintage-era Creedence, while on the deliciously swampy “Creedence Song,” Fogerty correctly and humorously assesses “You can’t go wrong/if you play a little bit of that Creedence song.” His love of classic Sun Records-era rockabilly permeates “It Ain’t Right,” one of many tunes on the album that allows Fogerty, whom Rolling Stone named one of the greatest guitarists of all time, to show off his blistering guitar work. “The River is Waiting” is a gorgeous, hymn-like spiritual that features well-known vocal trio, The Waters on backup vocals. A trenchant observer of the world’s troubles, Fogerty weighs in on the current administration with the rollicking, biting “Long Dark Night” and the ‘mission critical’ statement of “I Can’t Take It No More” with its unmistakable admonition “…another fortunate son.”
