GNA Hotshots: EYB, BSC, and Fans at the Plaza in Downtown Albany

A big, heartfelt "thank you" goes out to the thousands of fans who showed up at the Empire State Plaza in Downtown Albany on Wednesday for a night of live country music with Big Sky Country and Eli Young Band.

It was a warm and humid afternoon in downtown Albany and much to the delight of the thousands in attendance, it stayed dry!
