any speculations as to frankie's departure

[max]

i've not heard any speculations as to why frankie and the guys parted ways. up till now i've been racking my brains as to WHY? it came as such a shock that i still can't figure it out. i thought they were a real tight unit esp as charlie and him being related.

i don;t want to stir shit up, but some fans might know more than myself, or saw cracks starting to show.

the last 2 times i saw the band (within the last 12 months) they seemed right at the top of their game and frankie was 100% the madman we all knew him for.

i wish him luck in all he sets out to do, and i hope he releases a solo record!

He kept blocking Scott's shots when they played basketball...
jk...dunno.

I thought he was tired of bright reflection of light, off of Scott's finely polished dome.

Frank got sick of hearing Scott talk about celebrities he met and charlie go on and on about how great The Lord Of The Rings movies and toys are.

Frankie's not in Anthrax? Where have I been?

Must have been jealous of Charlie's toy collection. I know when I was younger my uncle (two years older than I) always had more Legos than I.

Maybe he saw the light and became a born-again christian... and now he´s off to Switzerland were he´s attending a watch-repair school!

 

[Ragamuffin]

Wrong former Anthrax member. Easy mistake since there's a ton of 'em.

Enough said.

 

[Stormwatch]

Didn't it have something to do with John? I got the impression John and Frank had a disagreement over something.

 

[Lordlindsey]

Where did you get that impression from?

 

[fuelee2004]

Could it be money? Does anyone remember a few years back when Scott and Charlie got SOD back together and Frank wasnt happy about it, something to do with not getting money from the volume 8 album or the tour or something? I could be completely wrong but does anyone know about any of this?

I still kinda cant believe hes left the band. Frank was a lifer in Thrax, same with Scott and Charlie so it must have been something pretty major to make him want to leave.

 

[Stormwatch]

Where did you get that impression from?

I don't remember to be honest. I thought I read Scott or Charlie say something about how John was their bud or something, in connection with Frank leaving. Fuck knows, I must have been drunk.

Left the band? Want to leave? Ummmm......no further comment.

 

[I Don't Die]

anyones guess

 

[Sentdown]

My best guess would also be money. i mean Anthrax isnt exactly an arena toring band anymore. Im sure they didnt make a killing off this last album, which is a contradiction in my opinion because its the shit. the guys have wives and families to think about.

yeah it was speculation from billy milano which might just be true,apparently scot and charlie kept saying they would get money after the third cycle of the album sold thru,meanwhile scott and charlie got all there money straight up,i dont think bush would be given a fair deal either

 

[Armored Thrax]

Frank left to play bass and sing in a little band called The Police. First singled called "Next to You".

 

[dutchy]
