Three Rivers Arts Festival, Downtown, Pittsburgh, PA.....

This was during a period when Point State Park was being renovated, so the festival had to create a new space by blocking off Stanwix Street and setting up shop there.

My wife and 7 month-old daughter went to the show and the kid was very interested in the music as well as the busy surroundings. I didn't get any pics of the performance since that's what happens when you have little one with you (although you can see the top of the stage in the shot below).

Allegheny Landing Park, Pittsburgh, PA....   The WYEP Summer Music Festival   In Brief: The only old song Shocked played was "Anchorage"--everything else was new. But unlike many performers who are heavy on their latest material, she was so dynamic that no one seemed to mind. Erin McKeown sat in on guitar for about 4 songs. There were some technical troubles during Penn's set, but he still played well. "Long Way Down" was interrupted halfway through ("I'd like to soldier on," Penn explained when he stopped the number, "But it's hard to sing if I can't hear the guitar"), but I'm so glad he played it. He closed with "Walter Reed," one of my favorites of the new record.
