And A Tribute To Gentle Giant
Rochester, NY - June 5, 2006 - PROG IN THE PARK (PITP) (www.PROG90.com) has announced final plans for the festival's fourth annual edition. The two day event will be held October 7 and 8, 2006.

Prog In The Park was founded in 2003 and is becoming one of the nation's fastest growing events supporting the progressive rock genre. The fourth edition will feature eight acts over two days with musicians coming from four countries and attendees trekking to Rochester from throughout the entire US and Canada. PITP is one of the most eclectic events in the region, presenting all forms of creative electric and acoustic music.
