Just saw Anthrax's first show of the tour last night!

[Jean-Pierre]

And you know what, they RULED. You would never believe just how good this show was!!!

Joey sounded EXCELLENT! Better than I could have ever hoped. Dan Spitz was on FIRE, and Frank Bello looked like he was having the time of his life!

The highlights were most definitely "I Am The Law," "Anti-Social," "A.I.R." and "MEDUSA!!!!" Yes, they played fucking Medusa! I know some of you older dudes have probably seen them play this back in the 80's, but as an eighteen year old, I NEVER thought I would hear one of my favourite Anthrax songs EVER played live!! They played the humourous "I'm The Man," and they closed the show with GUNG FUCKING HO!!

This is the Anthrax I thought I would never see live! I felt so privelidged and I was just in awe of what I was banging my head to. If they come to your neck of the woods, GO!!!

You are so lucky. I can't wait until they hit the New York/New Jersey area. It is going to be great. I saw Joey Belladonna open for W.A.S.P. last summer and he did "Medusa" as part of his set and I was knocked off my feet and said to meself "God, what I would do to see this live with him fronting Anthrax!" and sure enough it is in the set. That is fucking metal. \m/

 

[Jean-Pierre]

They also played "Among the Living," "Armed and Dangerous," "Belly of the Beast," and a bunch of other fucking classics! Last night was so fucking DEFINITIVE.

Ya lucky mofo! I would sell my soul to see the original Anthax! I hope they tour in
Indianapolis in the fall!

 

[TheGraveDigger]

I'm sure they will hit up everywhere this fall. Hopefully with some other cool bands.

 

[SavaRon]

Good to hear they were good. I was worried about it when they said they didn't even jam together before the reunion plans got in full force. Hopefully they will make their way down south sometime on this tour. I would love to see this line-up! Haven't seen these guys together since the Clash of the Titans in 1990. I've seen the Bush line-up several times and they were still great, but I am still looking forward to seeing Joey and Danny with the band again.

 

[whatduffhuck]

i wish i could see anthrax live

 

[sixxswine]

I saw them in their prime on the Titans tour. If anyone saw that tour & sees them on this one let me know how they rank compared to The Clash Tour...

 

[Break Zero]

Medusa? Hell yeah!
Now if only they'd play "One Man Stands"...

 

[nafxarhtnanikufcin]

Man, I Jealous. I hope they'll come to Atlanta. If they do I'll be in the pit baby. I am making plans...(evil grin). I was worried about Injun Joe. I am glad to hear he can still sing. Awesome... Later!

Whooooo I have seen them live in the 80s with this lineup and they were great!! Good to hear that they still slay! Nice review. Thanks for posting it Jean-Pierre.

 

[carnut]

Yeah, I would love to see them in that line up again. I was a big Anthrax fan in the 80's. Saw them on that memorable Agent Steel - Overkill - Anthrax tour back than...It would be great to see some Meduse and I'm the man stuff again. Just hope they will fly over here again (pretty sure they will ....)
