TESTAMENT And POSSESSED Presented With Keys To The City In Albuquerque, New Mexico

Prior to their October 23 show with Kreator in Albuquerque, New Mexico, mayor Tim Keller presented the members of Testament and Possessed frontman Jeff Becerra with the keys to the city. Testament posted a photo with Becerra via social media following the presentation.

Testament issued the following statement:

"A few nights ago before a packed concert at Albuquerque Convention Center, the boys received keys to city, courtesy of the Keller Bros, Metal @mayorkeller and Metal Minister Scott Keller.

These genuine metal keys are modeled after those which once unlocked the city’s jail cells. Towards the end of the set, Testament’s 1987 prison breakout anthem 'Over The Wall', was played in dedication, to which Tim Keller responded with a Mayoral crowdsurf.

Thanks to the Keller Bros and the City of Albuquerque for this great honor and to the ABQ fans for always making the band feel so at home in "The Duke City!'"
