Review:
First every concert doubleheader, as we returned to Fairfax that night. Nice seeing a full set from these guys after a short set at the HFStival. Plus by this point I had all their albums and loved their power pop.

Eddie From Ohio & Pat McGee Band at Oronoco Bay Park, Alexandria, VA, USA for Alexandria Waterfront festival
Review:
Pat McGee Band was a must after seeing them earlier in the summer. My sister liked Eddie From Ohio and had given me a CD, but I found it hard to get into. Live, I was sold instantly.

They Might Be Giants & Royal Crown Revue at Fairfax County Government Center, Fairfax, VA, USA for Fairfax Fair
Review:
I remember it being a good show but not much more, so it was funny when a coworker asked me if I went to the show because I walk across the shot of the video linked below (I’ve set the video to begin playing then, but you can just drag it back to the beginning).

Review:
My first Herndon Festival, and so much fun. Food and beer verndors, and great music. Gaelic Storm was the first Celtic/Irish band I saw, and riding high off their appearance in Titanic.
