The rock and roll community reminesces about the anthrax attacks of 2001 in a very different light. It seems that the rock band, Anthrax, was on tour during the anthrax attacks of Sept. 11, and they dutifully suspended their tour. For their next appearance at a charity show in New York City, they took the stage wearing white jump suits with the words "WE'RE NOT CHANGING OUR NAME" according to the online reporter, ultimate classic rock. It was reported they raised $90,000 that was given to the New York Police & Fire Widows & Children's Benefit.
If you are wondering how a story about the music entertainment business ended up on this rather serious blog, it is because the music group "Anthrax" has been coming up in internet searches for real anthrax, for the last 15 years! So congratulations to Anthrax for not changing their name and being defiant in the face of terrorism!
