JAX,
The Bomb Factory is the best music venue in Dallas & it isn't even close. The guy who owns Trees completely rebuilt it almost from scratch & it's amazing what they did with it. You have to go to a show there once they start having shows again. Great sound, great sightlines anywhere in the venue & a great set up for the merch area. It's pretty easy to get drink wherever you are in there. I'm dying to get in a balcony suite there.

Man I’m sold. You right. I HAVE to get to a show there.

Hirsch Coliseum, Shreveport. Drove up from LSU.

A show damn worthy of that drive. I hope you had a hotel up there for afterward though.

Damn, we need to start another concert ticket stub thread. Got some buried treasures around somewhere.

Yeah man I’m so damn bummed out that my stubs from ‘79 and the 80’s went missing, along with my early 90’s. Started keeping them again about 15 or so years ago. Have built a nice little stack in that time but wish I still had my old ones too.

I’m a thrash metal fanatic but I fully admit John Bush era Anthrax is way better than Joey Belladonna era Anthrax

And I love the early Anthrax releases but can’t disagree. Belladonna is somewhat cartoonish whereas Bush is a bonafide badass.

As much better of a vocalist as Bush is, I will say though that Joey has one of my favorite metal screams on record. That being when he screams the word floor in the line “Mega City was bombed to the floor” in I Am The Law. THAT is a badass scream he got out.
