So do you think...

Anthrax should come over my country, Israel, and show some respect to the Israelli fans?

 

[Jockthrax]

Well Scott's the Rabbi of heavy metal so why not? Israel can't be any worse than Glasgow on a Friday night!

 

[BlizzardOZ]

that's right!

Are there many metal fans in Israel?

Iron Maiden played there in 96. I think that is where they got the video from the "Afraid to Shoot Strangers" video.

yes, we do have a scene here, we had the 'Metalist Festival' few weeks ago, Behemoth preformed there too.
unfortunatly, no big bands will come to get our spirit up, coz most of the bands are cowards.

They played here in 95' and the video was 'Lord of the Flies' I think...

Yeah, Lord of the Flies had lots of Israel stuff. You're right. But I think the live footage in "Afraid to Shoot Strangers" might have been from Israel. I could be wrong.

Well said Dutchy, keep the politics outta the forum. Lets all unite under the great umbrella of metal!

Come on Mikey. Get this crap outta here. Remember we are not on the Billy Milano board.
You know, wherever Anthrax comes and plays, it´s not their thing really, you should ask the tour managers.
But I know there IS a heavy metal in Israel! Guess I´ve heard a band called Kaddish, right?

 

[BlizzardOZ]

not sure...'kaddish'?
We have alot of famous bands such as Salem, Orphaned Land....and some others

I would hope that Anthrax play more western United States and Canada shows before they even think of playing in Isreal. And I agree with what Mikey said. But no more politics.

Thanks Muff - it was out of character for me and the board, but I had had my fill of attitude for that day...
