It appears a heart attack while performing onstage in Studio City, CA, last night claimed the life of drummer Nick Menza, who appeared on the most commercially successful Megadeth albums, Rust in Peace (1990), Countdown to Extinction (1992), Youthanasia (1994) and Cryptic Writings (1997).
In the third song of a set with the band Ohm, Menza collapsed onstage. The hard rock community and Menza’s former bandmates in Megadeth express their shock and you can get the latest reaction HERE.
