Belfast, Dublin and Sonisphere on the Friday night.

The Sabbath Summer Time show clash is a bitch all right. I'm going to Sonisphere but think I'll do the Sabbath show on the Friday. I'm seeing Anthrax in Belfast and Dublin two nights in a row doing ATL earlier in the week so I think I can miss the Friday Sonisphere show.

I'd be amazed if they ever surface, given the bad blood and the court case. If you look at Black Sabbath as an example, it took almost 20 years for the original recordings of The Eternal Idol featuring Ray Gillen to surface. This version of Worship Music has much the same significance as...

Has anyone outside of the band ever heard the 'Worship Nelson' (That'll be Worship Music with Dan Nelson singing on it) album? I'd love to know what it sounds like. I was at the London show they did with him in 2009, and they played Earth On Hell and Fight Em Til You Can't. Objectively, there...

FOM: (I'm happy enough with 'Deathrider' to be honest). STD:AIR (Rarely played these days). ATL: (I'm happy enough if the title track is in the set). SOE: Make me laugh or Who Cares Wins. POT:Time! Usa got it on the reunion tour, Europe didn't. AOTKB: Milk! SOWN: Black Lodge. Saw them doing...

Interesting old read. However it brings to mind the horror of The Greater Of Two Evils, the worst Anthrax album of all time bar none. I love both the Bush and Belladonna eras, but this album is just horrible.

It's a great set, but there are some bad typos in the Malcolm Dome penned Essay. E.g; 'In 1991 they recorded the landmark song 'I'm The Man' with Public Enemy'.

Yeah, it was a bitter feud that none of them came out of looking particularly well. It was however, a pleasure to catch that band (last in line) live. Haven spoken to Vivian, I know that the band were making a loss on that European tour, so it is no cash-grab. Also having seen just how much...

Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Ronnie James Dio, but I think you'll find that it was a two way street here; they both talked shit about each other for 25 years. Have you seen the 'I hope he dies' video of Ronnie on youtube?

Yeah, that's right. The man who has made his millions playing stadiums with Def Leppard is 'cashing in' by playing a few club dates with Last in Line. Last in Line is the full original Dio band minus Ronnie Dio himself. It's as close as it gets.

Not seen the Dio Disciples but I did see the real thing, ie; Last in Line, last month in Belfast. Great to finally hear those early Dio tracks played by the band that recorded them.

Cool lp. Can you post some more pics (front / back cover)?

Doing Dublin and M&G next Saturday. Not sure whether to ask about Dan Nelson, haha!

For any of you interested, here's the full set of Anthems vinyls.

I managed to pick up the blue vinyl Worship Music. Just the Soldiers of Metal 7" to go!
