Metallicat180 said:Great pics!!! I love the one of you and Frank - he's such a cool guy!!
Thanks...Frankie has to be one of the nicest guys ever (I hear his wife is also expecting...I think he will make an awesome daddy)
I don't look the greatest in these pics but atleast I have them...me with Scott and Charlie:
Awesome pics - is Scott a nice guy? My friend's met them all a couple of times and says he's a twat, same with Dan (dunno if you've met him tho)
Btw, who played the lead parts on Stomp? It says Scott does the rhythm and then also credits Charlie as playing guitar - does he do the lead? I will be VERY impressed if he does - to be that good a drummer AND to be able to shred like that!!!

Both of those guys are cool guys. When you have hundreds of people in every city hounding you for autographs, photos, etc etc you can't always be in the highest of spirits. It's a very crazy life being on the road. Every night you are in a new city. Living on a bus, etc etc. I have known Scott for a long time he is a good guy and typically treats the fans really well

Yeah ALL of the guys are great...I have met them all, including John in the past...Scott is incredibly nice, but he's human and sometimes he's tired, etc...and would react like any normal person would. Part of the reason I love the band so much (besides from their music) is the band members themselves. As for Danny, he is a little on the quite side, but when I met him I happen to be holding a rose that a homeless man gave me
so I handed it to Danny and he gave me one of his pics...made my day

ANTHRAX's concert in Gothenburg, Sweden Wednesday night (April 19) lasted only a few minutes, according to a BLABBERMOUTH.NET source that was present at the gig. Halfway through the opening song, "Among the Living", the band's amplifiers, vocalist Joey Belladonna's microphone and the monitors all went dead and the band was forced to leave the stage. The crowd was told that there was a power problem, but was asked to stay put while it was being fixed.
More than an hour later, an announcement was made that the show had to be cancelled due to "severe electrical problems." Several electricians were reportedly called to the venue Trädgårn, but were unable to locate the source of the problem. The opening band, BEYOND FEAR (featuring ex-JUDAS PRIEST and current ICED EARTH frontman Tim "Ripper" Owens), performed their set without any problems.
ANTHRAX played Sweden at last summer's Sweden Rock festival. Tonight's concert was the only stop in Sweden on the band’s current European tour and lots of people had travelled far to see the legendary thrash metal act. The audience was told to keep their tickets to get a refund. [Note: One ANTHRAX fan reportedly demonstrated his disappointment by undressing and exposing his penis.]
I just love that last line!
I feel so bad for those fans, this was the one and only stop in Sweden on this tour...I guess Anthrax is so metal, they killed the power!

Man that sucks!!! I know how disappointed I felt when a gig of mine was only postponed, let alone cancelled. That would have sucked so much!!
