A Weekend of Flux and Swoon

by Jason Mosley

The last weekend of the Arts Festival was amazing. If you remember, a few weeks ago I posted about Flux. Well I attended the event on Saturday and let me just say that it was better than the first one I went to. It looks like they had everything more organized this time around and the music was a lot better. One stage had nothing but punk music while other stages had more low key stuff and DJs. The night flew by, as you checked out the art and listened to music on the two floors of the Brooks Brothers Building, Downtown.

On Sunday I went back to the Arts Festival to see Swoon. Emily talked about them in her post about the last weekend of that Art Festival. They were scary and relaxing to watch at the same time. I am sure if you do a search on the all mighty Google you can find more pictures of them. Also, I wish I had a Swoon pole so I could fly around. It looked like a good time.

So as you can see, Pittsburgh really pulled through this year in making the Arts Festival a good time even with Point State Park under construction. I can’t wait to see it again next year.
