But my daughter is 12 now and I want to spend time with her. I also want to be out there playing. When I came to Megadeth in 2015, I had a young daughter and newborn twins. I was always struggling, knowing that I needed to be on tour, but I also wanted to be home with my kids and my wife. And I kept having that feeling that told me 'should I continue playing rockstar while my family stays at home?' and the more important moments I missed, the more complicated it became. It became more difficult in 2023, especially during the three-month summer tour. So I went to Dave in June and said, \u201cThis is too much for me. \u201cI don't feel in the right place or in the right frame of mind to give 100 percent.\u201d It was hard for me to say because I wanted to play, but I knew I needed to be home. And of course Dave wasn't expecting it. I offered to help find a replacement who turned out to be Temuu. They kept asking me, \u2018Are you sure?\u2019 In the end, I had to take control because I knew I needed and wanted to be home. People who don't have kids won't understand, but those who have kids will know what I mean.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" translation-block\">Originally, <strong>Kiko Loureiro <\/strong>announced that she would not be able to be on the last part of the <strong>Megadeth<\/strong> tour to be able to return with her children, and then extend her departure in the month of November.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El ex-guitarrista de Megadeth, Kiko Loureiro habl\u00f3 con Guitar World sobre su salida de la banda y las razones que lo llevaron a tomar esa decisi\u00f3n, las cuales sobre todo tienen que ver con su ambiente familiar. &#8220;Todo comenz\u00f3 cuando reserv\u00e9 un viaje a mi casa en Brasil.
