Saving Abel – Altar Bar – 2/26/2015

Saving Abel at Altar Bar on 2/26/2015

– Thursday, February 26th, 2015 Saving Abel stormed into Pittsburgh’s Alar Bar in support of their newest album Blood Stained Revolution.  Lead singer Scotty Austin and company came out on stage in front of a fired up crowd and immediately burst into the track Ready to Burn and that set the tone for the whole evening as the crowd was ready to rock and the band gave their all on stage.  The audience consisted of people of all ages and they were not disappointed.

Maryland based band ShadowBurn got things started.  One of the hard things about going on first is that the crowd is usually not all there yet,  But that didn’t stop them from putting on a solid set. Act of Pardon was next.  This was the first time I ever got to see them and I liked what I saw.   Slant 6 was the last of the local openers and they put on a hell of a show with lots of energy and songss that got the crowd fired up.  Check out pics of all the bands below.
