Thanks for a great Arlington Hts. fest

Posted March 29, 2011 12:00 am

As a resident of Arlington Heights, we would like to thank Derek Hanley, owner of Peggy Kinnane’s Irish Restaurant & Pub, for the quality music festival that he brought to our village from March 17-19th.

Sometimes the suburbs can seem like a barren wasteland when it comes to finding good live entertainment options. To be able to see four quality bands like the Neverly Brothers, American English, High Infidelity and .38 Special play under one heated tent with friendly staff, good food and drink, was a lot of fun for these music lovers!

It is unfortunate that so many of our residents missed out on a great opportunity to see such a professionally run music festival, right in our own backyard! We hope to see more of these events supported in the future.

What a brilliant emerald gem we found on a Saturday evening. Thank you again to Peggy Kinnane’s and to all the sponsors that created this fun event. Keep the faith!
