During an L.A. performance Saturday night, Anthrax front-man Joey Belladonna was tackled by security after a fan jumped on stage. While the video shows Joey wrapping his arm around the fanatic, security storms the stage and takes them both down. Anthrax stops play, bassist Frank Bello screams at the guard, and guitarist Scott Ian grabs the mic and says:

It’s pretty smart to tackle the singer. Fucking geniuses working here, huh? I guess they haven’t seen him up here on stage for the last 90 minutes. He’s in the band!

Catch all the action here in this video caught by a fan stage-side...
