Anthrax アンスラックス @ Loud Park 2009

アンスラックス anthrax loud park 09 tokyo chiba japan

It has been 22 years since I last saw Anthrax live in concert. The last time was at the Omni in Oakland, California. I was a big Anthrax fan then. My love for the band has long since dimmed. Their first few albums were pretty good, but I don’t even listen to them anymore. Anthrax took some wrong turns along the way, the biggest being their Rap Metal phase.

I didn’t take many photos of Anthrax. The vast majority of those that I did take didn’t come out as Scott Ian still runs around like a maniac (as he did 22 years ago). That makes for a great stage show but not good picture taking.

In addition to the rap influences, I also have never been a big fan of any of Anthrax’s half dozen, or more, singers. John Bush isn’t bad I suppose.

アンスラックス anthrax mixing board tokyo japan loud park 2009 09

I was standing right in front of the mixing board for several bands at Loud Park. The sound was pretty poor standing any closer to the stage than the mixing board. At one point I turned around, and this Japanese guy working the mixing board was head banging and singing along. I’ve never seen that before. I had to laugh. You can’t really see him bouncing his head in this picture, but he was. Trust me.
