I remember going to Punk Rock Shows in Troy. Club Cavern. The Danger room. Carl and Smiitys. Phillthys. Checkbook Charlies. Anywhere we could get power was a gig. FSU fighting the cops and the Gang Green riots.

I've gotta say.. this is a city I'm only barely familiar with in name, but WOW what a great looking place. So much history.

There are so many underappreciated cities out there, thanks for sharing with the rest of us.
