Press Release: Anthrax Pays Tribute To The Victims And Salutes The Heroes Of 9/11

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The tragedies of last fall affected our band like no other. Our nation, our city, our friends and even our name came under attack.  
Throughout the history of our band we have never been afraid to defend who we are and what we stand for. For one day only, on Wednesday September 11, 2002, we would like to invite you to help us pay tribute to the fallen, and to the heroes who helped us stand again, by playing our new song "Refuse To Be Denied" loud and strong. The song will be available in RealMedia audio at our  Web site: http://www.anthrax.com

The name of the song says it all and we hope you will agree. Look for "Refused To Be Denied" on our new album "We've Come For You All" in early 2003. 

Thank you,

Frankie, Charlie, John, Rob & Scott

ANTHRAX
 
 


MTV is reporting the following: 
Sammy Hagar Calls Reunion With Van Halen Inevitable'

Having just wrapped a "who-would-have-thunk-it" co-headlining tour with the guy he replaced in Van Halen 10 years before leaving the band himself, Sammy Hagar is now mentally preparing for a reunion with Eddie, Alex and Michael. 

�I think a reunion is inevitable,� the self-proclaimed �red rocker� said backstage at last week�s MTV Video Music Awards, shortly after presenting an award with David Lee Roth. �I mean come on, how could it not [happen]?� 

Hagar confessed that he hasn�t spoken with either of the Van Halen brothers in quite some time, though bassist Michael Anthony has been oining him onstage of late.

"Mikey hasn�t even heard from Edie or Alex," Hagar explained. "I just think when they�re ready to surface, they�ll do it."
