Joey has and always will rule no matter how bad you bash him, actually I think it's pathetic the way some of you try to voice their discontempt lamming the hell out of him...
He performed the greatest ANTHRAX classic no matter what you say and he is still a helluva frontman, if the only way you know is getting this low you're just pretty pathetic!
I don;t give a flying fuck about lyrics, I wouldn;t say the Bush era lyrics were bad either but who cares, it's all about the music..it's just another sad excuse to bash, bash, bash and bash again...what's next?? Joeys sneakers? Joeys eye-colour??? The brand of Coke Joey drinks??? the lenght of his trousers....come on that's pure BS!
It seems like everybody here in the board that actually prefers Joey gets also bashed beyond belief, if you like Bush that is just "normal" you get a member of the club instantly and everybody (well not exactly everybody but a lot) quoted your posts with the words "agreed" attached....pretty sick and intolerant...
I think a little bit of it is the frustration they actually did better than everybody expected, Joey can still sing, maybe even better than he did way back, Dan can still play the guitar and he plays the leads note for note...they are tight as a band and get even better crowd reactions than ever! The reviews are on average VERY positive to raving, with an occasional bad one (which most of teh time doens;t even is about the music or the performance but just the looks or the dislike for the new "old" members). You just have to accept they can exist without Bush and most definately without Cannagio....
