Adelitas Way slays sold out crowd in Michigan

For four rock bands that are still up-and-coming, they sure had the energy and passion of a sold out heavy metal arena show! For me, I believe that artists, no matter the genre, put on the best shows when they keep moving and interacting with the crowd. The production means nothing without the correct stage […]
