In all seriousness, anytime there is a concert with 70,000 + people there will ususally be some type of issue. Good for the city to rake in some dollars.

It's no commuter tax, but it's something.

I'm in my late twenties, and unlike with Kenny, I have definitely been noticing fewer Facebook posts about this compared to that.

I rode my bike here and it is very mellow. Concert delayed due to weather. An older relaxed set of people. Headed home because it is going to start so late.

I stayed for a few songs. Garth sounded great of course and everyone was having a great time. Cops were about sleeping for this one as anyone that knows Brook's crowd would assume it would be very chill. Sure there were a few people over doing it drinking, but we are talking about around 80,000 people figuring there were plenty just hanging outside listening.

If I would have driven down there, I would have gotten a ticket and went. You could get one for $30 or even less after it started. I think the scalpers were disappointed because the older set buys tickets ahead of time and there are very few looking after the fact.

Sure was a beautiful night though. The moon was amazing and I got some great photos. Great night for Pittsburgh.

Nice to see that everyone was well behaved last night. Watching it on the news this morning, it looked like an older and more mature crowd. Very little of the over the top behavior that is associated with the 20s crowd that comes for the other country and western singer.

The Garth crowd isn't quite the same as a KC one fortunately for the city and other attending the concert.
