Last week, Dave Mustaine tweeted to Bill O'Reilly that he bought all of Bill's books, so Bill should do him a solid and listen to the new Megadeth record, Dystopia.
Here's the tweet, if you missed it:
@oreillyfactor bill, dave here. I bought all of your books. How about you get my new album #Dystopia by @Megadeth? pic.twitter.com/BdBUPEIY7p

Well, somebody in O'Reilly's office clearly got the message to Papa Bill, who had no problem letting all of his viewers know that "hard rocker Dave Mustaine formerly of Metallica, and currently of MEGADETH" is a fan. The video is worth watching if only to hear O'Reilly put the emphasis on the "deth" in MegaDETH, although Bill admits he's more of an R&B guy:
Overall, this is a nice bit of free publicity for Dave, although I'm curious how he reacted when he saw the Metallica mention.
Megadeth is about to embark on a North American tour. Dates here.
