GWAR rocked the Baltimore Soundstage this past Friday as devoted fans crowded the front of the stage to take part in the theatrics!  It was definitely a fun way to spend a Friday evening!  Despite the passing of lead singer and front man, Dave Brockie in 2014, GWAR has carried on.  This creative band continues to gather a devote fan base who come to their shows for not only the music, but to enjoy the show… the messy show!
