ANTHRAX Drummer On Upcoming Tour: 'Bring A Helmet'

November 18, 2005

ANTHRAX have officially announced the January kick-off of their 2006 headline reunion tour with support acts GOD FORBID and SWORN ENEMY. This tour steamrolls straight through January 21, including a January 7 hometown show at New York City's Nokia Theater in Times Square, a January 13 stop at the renowned Chicago House Of Blues and a grand finale tour wrap-up on January 21 at the legendary Avalon in Los Angeles, California. For these three shows, there will be a limited number of pre-sale tickets available for members of ANTHRAX's fan club and their web community. Fans who purchase tickets via this presale will be invited to the band's sound check. The remaining shows will be announced shortly.

"This tour will be a real exciting one for us," stated ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante. "We will be doing a headline set, more songs, more girth, more sweaty metal! We have GOD FORBID and SWORN ENEMY coming with us. These two bands will rip your heads off! After that, you will have time to put your heads back on until we come out and rip them off again...bring a helmet!"

At noon on November 18, Anthrax Fan Club members have the exclusive opportunity for presale tickets for the tour. The Anthrax Internet Community gains access on November 19. All tickets will be available to the rest of the public on November 18.

Commented ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian: "Merry Xmas and Happy New Year. What better holiday gift could we than ANTHRAX in your face live. No seats, no time limit and more songs including stuff that we've never played EVER! Come in from the cold and get ready to have some fucking fun."
