MEGADETH's DAVE MUSTAINE Was A Parasite Magnet
The Associated Press reports: MEGADETH frontman Dave Mustaine never realized when he hit the road, how much of it he brought back with him.
Mustaine says he went to see a health practitioner who did an analysis of his body.
She told him he found 51 parasites in his body, many of which were varieties of worms.
He couldn't believe it.
He says he's sure he picked all that up staying in less-than-clean hotel rooms and other hazards of being on tour.
It doesn't stop him from freaking out that he's going to catch germs from fans.
Mustaine says he has fans cough into their hands and then shake his, or they give him hugs.
He says part of the hazard of his being so outgoing and affectionate is that he's sick a lot.
