Rod in Toronto Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Count me in!!! Amazing band, and the only time I saw them, John Bush was sick, so Joey Vera handled all the vocals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 Hey J, come and see them here!!! I'm considering it. They never do long tours and Toronto is probably my best chance. I know Joey Vera doesn't like long tours so they would never come here. I don't even know what venue they would play here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosher Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Never listened to much, but I'm an odd one who much preferred Bush's Anthrax to Belladonna's, at least as vocals go. This reminds me to listen to them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reminds me to listen to them! As far as pure, raw, emotive vocals go not too many in metal are better than John Bush. Like his voice better than Belladonna for the most part. Although Belladonna has really stepped up his game on the last two Anthrax albums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty taco bro They could probably draw enough here to fill a mighty taco lol. The ballroom is way too big for them. It fits over a thousand people and I've seen bands like Anthrax, Megadeth, Testament and most recently Black Label Society pack that place. They would be lucky to get a hundred people at a show here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 The Mod Club, where they're playing in Toronto, fits around 600 people. I saw Fates Warning there, and it was embarassingly empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not surprised he could get a good crowd at the ballroom or any other venue of that size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Boy, did they bring it last night!!!!! My ears are still ringing from the concert, and it was easily one of the top ten concert experiences I've ever had. Strangely enough, the Toronto crowd was REALLY good - the first time I've seen such a passionate reaction here. And I interviewed John Bush!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
