Vicious Rumors are at Photo City Music Hall in Rochester on March 25, and if you have been sleeping on Bay Area thrash metal in 2026, this is your alarm clock. The band has been shredding since 1979 — longer than most of their audience has been alive — and they still play with the kind of intensity that makes you wonder if anyone told them they are allowed to slow down.
Photo City is a solid room for metal. The Finger Lakes venue keeps the sound tight and the capacity honest, which means you are going to feel every riff from the front of the room to the back wall. Doors at 6:00 PM — get there when they open, because shows like this tend to pack in fast once word spreads.
Tickets are available through SeatGeek.
