When the date finally arrived, fans flocked inside, ready for what was sure to be an exciting night with fantastic music and a few welcomed surprises along the way.
One of those is the city of Albany, NY which had an unbelievable amount of anticipation weeks leading up to Saturday September 27th when the bands arrived at Times Union Center.

When Volbeat announced that Anthrax guitarist Rob Caggiano would not just be producing their fifth album, 2013’s Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies, but joining the band, eyebrows were raised.ĭid the shredding, ESP-wielding beanie aficionado fit with a band whose stock in trade is fusing metal with 50s rock ’n’ roll and rockabilly?
