AMONG THE LIVING TOUR BOOK
East Brunswick, New Jersey: Jon and Marsha Zazula, Crazed Management, 1987. Original tour book for the second American leg of Anthrax's Among the Living tour, which featured Exodus and Celtic Frost as opening acts. Includes the complete itinerary and travel schedule for the band, with contact information for key personnel and hotels, call times, etc.
The band's third studio album, released on March 16, 1987, Among the Living broadened the scope of Anthrax's subject matter with socially conscious lyrics addressing prejudice, violence, drug abuse, and the hollowness of the music business. It also firmly established the band's place among the "Big Four" of thrash metal, along with Metallica, Slayer, and Megadeth.
