The Anthrax/Testament/Death Angel tour

I'm going to the San Diego stop tomorrow. Has anyone else here been to one of the shows?

Wow, great tour.

Wish i could attend it.

Going to the DC show next month

I wanted to go see them in Chicago, a couple of weekends ago, but I couldn't find anyone to attend with. There are good things about getting older (such as becoming wiser) and bad things regarding becoming older (metal friends not so metal anymore)...

I'm thinking about catching this show in Milwaukee at the Rave on November 19th (the last show on this leg of the U.S tour). Is anyone interested in possibly attending this gig in the land of cheese? It's on a Saturday night, which makes it a lot more convenient!

I found out it is coming to my neck of the woods, but unfortunately, I can't go. BOO!

When I found out they were coming to my town, it was on the same exact night I'd already committed to seeing the Foo Fighters. I was really bummed that I couldn't see both.

You should drive down to the Silver Spring, MD show on Nov 6th. It's not that far of a drive from Philly! And it;s a brand new venue - nice place, saw Yngwie there!

Ha! There would have been a time when that was an option, but not so in 2011. It was hard enough to get out for the night for the Foos. 2 nights out in the same week ain't happening. Unless you're volunteering to watch the kids. And I should warn you, they're terrors.

I'm going to the Charlotte show on Nov. 5th

Buffalo, Ny November 15th tickets were 45$.....

I saw Yngwie last night, that was a great show!

As for this tour, I'll be at the Salt Lake City date but I'm not sure if Anthrax will still be on the tour for that date or not. Either way I'm glad to be seeing Testament again, especially with a full set this time around.

It was a good show. All three bands were great. But Testament was my favorite (as usual). I also saw the comedian Brian Posehn hanging out in the audience talking to fans before Anthrax went on.

LOL!!!!!! Well, I had to strike a deal with the ex to take my kids for that night......

Testament/Death Angel are coming but Anthrax is not coming to Fargo, ND. I'm going though!

Wargod

Too bad this tour isn't coming near Alabama. I was hoping to at least see an Atlanta date. If it's not Toby Keith, Lynyrd Skynyrd, or Nickelback, then no one will show up at a concert around here anyways. /sarcasm

Interesting video: during "Metal Thrashing Mad" in LA, a security guy tackles a guy who rushes on stage, and also manages to tackle Joey Belladonna. Starts at 1:37 or 1:38.

Anyone hear about the Death Angel roadie attacked during the tour?

Axl would have canceled a tour for something like that. Frank Bello also looked mad as hell at that security idiot.

I heard about that too... This tour is getting crazy!

Yikes! What's the story behind that?

Yeah I was impressed by how quickly Joey was back up and ready to get going on the next song. Very cool.

Apparently, he was attacked by a guy who was parked all the way up to the bus trailer. When Dane politely asked the guy to move his Black Ford Galaxy 500, the guy just started wailing on him. Dane woke up in the hospital with a fractured skull and orbital bone, plus an enormous amount of pain and swelling.

Did they catch the guy that did it?

I go to shows on my own quite often. The trip in itself isnt as fun, but watching the show as such doesnt make much different. I hope this package comes here as well, Anthrax isnt popular enough on their own here.

Ditto. I've gone to maybe two shows ever with friends actually. I kind of like going alone because I always meet interesting/funny people at shows
