If ANTHRAX do this Ozzfest reunion.....

This tour will take place for 1 simple yet very important reason--money. Financially Anthrax (not just a band but also a business) has not had the same success that they had with Joey,for example

With Joey--on Elecktra Records
With John--pick an indie label they've been on

With Joey--7 gold and plat records
With John--1 gold record(tsown)

This is not to dismiss John at all, just a cold reality check. Most of you guys may bitch about Joey coming back BUT you would still go see Anthrax with Joey

You know, aside from the obvious, I'd REALLY hate for Anthrax to do it for a simpler reason: all the bands at Ozzfest suck! Festivals are fun, but I prefer the indoors to outdoors, and I prefer a small club to an open field, and I MUCH prefer paying $30 for a full 2-hour set of a band that I love rather than paying $50 (I think that's how much Ozzfest costs right?) for 45 minutes of a band I love then an hour and a half driving home because there's no reason to stay.
2 hour Anthrax set? DREAM ON!

Logical fallacies involved here: False Dilemma, Complex Cause, Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc.

In defense of Sharon, she can do what she wants with the festival she runs. If Charlie and Scott decide to tour with Joey because of it, then it was Charlie and Scott are responsible for it.

I know she can but come on..Bush has been Anthrax's singer the longest. I just think it sucks that theyre doing this, that Anthrax have to do what Madam Osbourne demands and sidestep their frontman just to play Ozzfest..but least it will keep the narrowminded metal fans who think the only good Anthrax is the old Anthrax happy.

Do you think this is a good thing that theyre doing this Justin?
 
I would find this 2 singer thing possibly acceptable. If they tour with just Joey I would be pissed. I have seen Anthrax before and after the break-up with Joey. I loved em before, and I absolutely loved them after. Now, however, I would not enjoy seeing them get back together with Joey and dump john. I'd be quite pissed.

I think it's terrible, but you got to do what the boss wants or find another job. Apparently they want to do what their boss wants.
 
there were signed with elektra when joey was in the band,joey said he was sure his signature was on that contract,they fired joey before the ink dried lol,nice guys hey!
 
DeathsHead, Anthrax were signed to Elektra records after John joined the fold.


Anthrax was signed to Elektra while Joey was in the band, the ink may not have been even dry when he was let go but at the time he was the singer.
 
Fuck All You Joey Haters, Joey The Was Reason The Band Was Always Great. John Is Good Too, But My Favorite Era Was With Joey. No They Wouldnt Be Selling Out At All, Theyd Be Giving The Real Die Hard Fans A Chance To Relive The Old, While Silencing All You Bush Lovers. You Call Yourselfs Die-hard Fans But You Hate Joey?? Fuck You All ! You Aint Die Hard Fans, True Fans Would Love To See This Shit Go Down !!! Scott, Charlie, Please Do This For The True Die Hard Fans, The Ones Who Know Anthrax Havent Been The Same Since Joey Left. This Would Be The Greatest Thing To Ever Happen To The Band Since The Joey Days. And, No The Current Line Up Isnt The Best, The Best Was Joey, Scott, Charlie, Frank, And Dan Spitz.

This Has To Happen !! Joey Would Be Awesome And This Will Be Better Than Anyone Can Even Imagine Right Now.

Fuck The Joey Haters !!! You Aint Die Hard Fans !! You All Of You !!!
 
How Can You Say Youre A Die Hard Fan, And Then You Say Youll Be Done With Them If They Do This ?! Fuck You !! Im A Fan For Life, Regardless Of What They Do. Please Do This Guys, For The True Fans
 
Die hards hate Joey because Joey fucked us over in 1998. He's an asshole.

We think they made the right choice in 1993, and their music got better because of it.
We love the old shit, but it's even better with John singing, hands down.
and whether they signed to Elektra while Joey was the singer or not, that wasn't my point. My point was, they didn't release anything with Joey on vocals on Elektra.

That made it sound like joey was the reason for anthrax's success, and that simply isn't true. Joey was a vocalist only who contributed hardly anything [if anything at all] to the actual songwritting. Lets not forget that ALL thrash bands have had a decline in record sales since 1993 or so. Megadeth, slayer and even metallica. Saying anthrax is offered ozzfest only with joey because of their succes with him is just as daft as saying megadeth wouldn't be welcomed on ozzfest without ellefson, freidman, and menza.
 
Die hards hate Joey because Joey's voice is shitty. Is the baddest singer on earth. John was a 10000 time better singer, a better person and a nicest guy. John is in the band since 13 years and the band was better than ever. Bring back Frank and fuck Joey.
 
what do u like best about him- the tight pants or the off-key voice? or the fact that he wrote none of the lyrics or music?

"Die hards hate Joey because Joey's voice is shitty"
well said MB!
