on his cancer treatment on Tuesday and the veteran rocker said his recovery is going well. "I’m almost through the last round of treatment and my doctors are feeling very positive regarding my progress. I want to thank all of you for the support and well wishes these last few months. I can’t express enough gratitude as it has made this hard road easier knowing you are in my corner fighting with me!" wrote Mustaine, who revealed in June that he'd been diagnosed with throat cancer.

"We can’t wait to see you, and I know all of the other wonderful artists feel the same way. Let’s make this event one for the record books. Less than 30 days till we are Thrashing through the Pacific!"
