The fans responsible for the incident were reportedly angry WASP fans, who had heard a rumor that WASP would not play at the festival due to an earlier argument between Mustaine and WASP frontman BLACKIE LAWLESS. The rumor, however, has not been officially confirmed.

After the band exited the stage, a spokesperson for Megadeth came out to address the angry crowd and stated, "Guys, Dave's been hit in the head with a rock." He continued, "I apologize. He's been hit in the head." After his short remarks were made, the spokesman hurriedly left the stage as chants for WASP resounded and more rocks continued to fly.

Megadeth are still slated to play Download Festival tomorrow, June 10th.
