I had no idea who he was, other than the fact he was tremendously talented and that the staff from Burrn! held him in high regard. Since then I&#8217;ve come to see what a guitar virtuoso he is, and I&#8217;m deeply encouraged by his depth and talent. Very few Megadeth alumni have had the same feel and ability as Kiko. As Frank Sinatra says, &#8220;the best is yet to come!&#8221; -Dave Mustaine<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Megadeth\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Megadeth<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Den Headz, Brazilian shredder Kiko Loureiro has joined MEGADETH.
