Watch Megadeth's entire set from Wacken festival 2017

Last weekend the heavy metal monster of Wacken rolled into Schleswig-Holstein, Germany for another long weekend of the best and brightest rock and metal bands on the planet. Headlining the Harder stage on the Friday were the mighty Megadeth, who played a savage sixteen song greatest hits set to thousands of headbangers and pitters as the clock struck midnight.
