On Thursday Havok Dropped From Megadeth Tour Amid Contract Dispute was a top story. Here is the recap: (Metal Hammer) Havok say they have been removed as a support act from Megadeth's upcoming North American tour after refusing to sign what they are calling an "unacceptable" contract.

Havok were named alongside Suicidal Tendencies, Amon Amarth and Metal Church as support acts on the North American tour, but have revealed they will no longer take part after a falling out with Mustaine Management, the firm run by Megadeth mainman Dave Mustaine's son Justis.

Havok say: "It is with deep regret we are forced to inform fans of metal that we will not be on the upcoming Megadeth tour with Amon Amarth, Suicidal Tendencies and Metal Church. We will also not be going to Mexico in August and early September as was planned.

"We were really looking forward to these shows, but, unfortunately, Mr Mustaine has chosen to remove us from the lineup. The reasons for our absence are directly related to a contract negotiation insisted upon by Mustaine Management - a negotiation that has gone awry." Read more - here.
