Title: Pittsburgh Irish Festival
Post by: Terry Griffith on September 11, 2010, 10:44:41 AM
A big "THANK YOU" to all those rennies who came to my set at the Pittsburgh Irish Festival yesterday.  You all rock.  Remember there are two more days left to enjoy one of the best festivals in the country and one of the top 10 festivals in the world.  Get the weekend schedule at http://www.pghirishfest.org/ (http://www.pghirishfest.org/).  The PIF enjoyed a record crowd for the opening day of the 20th Anniversary.  If Friday's totals are any indication, this should be a record weekend for the festival.  This is definitely the place to be this weekend.

Also this weekend and next weekend , 9/17 & 18 is "Ye Old Renaissance Festival" at Settler's Village in Middlefield, Oh.  Get all the details here, http://www.vancuragallery.com/settlersevents.asp (http://www.vancuragallery.com/settlersevents.asp). 

See you soon,
Terry

Thanks for posting this, Terry! I'll add it to the calendar of events in the GLMF thread, since Pittsburgh is a short trip from NE Ohio. Looks like it's definitely worth checking out!

Thanks, Athena.  Sunday went well but next week is sure to be even better.  It's a great cause.  SCA was there with demonstrations on Saturday.  St. Sadies Soap has a booth as well as Bored Housewife and several others.  The food was good but it is a dry faire so byof.  Hope some people from Pittsburgh venture over for a different faire experience and also support "Shop with a Cop" by attending.
