Anthrax return to our shores and come set with a very special set in mind . The band will be dedicating half of their set to play their breakthrough record Among The Living front to back . The room is made up of mostly men in their late 40s , early 50s with grey long hair and a youthful sense of enthusiasm .
The Raven Age open tonights show as the only support act on this momentous tour that is likely to be sold out night after night . The quintet from London storm onto stage and immediately set out their stool to bring energy and a fresh dose of melodic rock to proceedings . However very quickly frontman Michael Burrough looks as if he wants to be anywhere else right now and his performance comes across as half hearted . The audience must sense this as they only politely applaud in between songs from the bands catalogue . They label their set to be better than the previous night in London which was again a room full of unresponsive participants . Tough crowd to try and win over when everyone is here for one band only .
