quick concert summary
Quick concert report. About 300 people attended the kickoff concert to the regional convergence. Massive problems were encountered in trying to deal the University of Pittsburgh Administration. The event started an hour late because of this. A good number of police in the area who threatened to tow cars and generally harassed people. To get into the concert you had to go through a metal detector which was staffed by three cops. One cop commented that they only bring the metal detector out for black frats/sororitys or political events. The weekend has begun!

Hey: I know there is some video footage of an interview with that officer, but the particular statement in question isn't on film. I'm not entirely sure if his badge shows in the video or not. We can check. If you want more details, email video@indypgh.org
