Yesterday, Megadeth played an acoustic set at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Michigan for a handful of fans selected by local radio station WRIF 101.1 FM.
The band played a selection of new and old songs, including "Use the Man", "Public Enemy No. 1" and "Symphony for Destruction." You can check out footage from the performance below.
