Godsmack and Shinedown in Concert at Key Bank Pavilion; Biddle’s Escape a Pleasant Destination for Coffee and More (Tues., 8/28/18)

1) Massachusetts alt-metal band Godsmack and Florida alt-metal band Shinedown headline KeyBank Pavilion. Godsmack is touring in support of its latest studio album, this year’s When Legends Rise. “Bulletproof” was the first single. Godsmack had three straight number one albums on the Billboard 200 and 23 top ten hit rock songs. Shinedown is also touring in support of a 2018 release: Attention Attention with leadoff single, “Devil.” Red Sun Rising opens. 7 p.m. 665 Rt. 18, Burgettstown. (EC, CM)

2) Biddle’s Escape, on Biddle Avenue between Regent Square and Wilkinsburg has a great selection of coffee drinks, teas, and sweet treats. One that has been getting a lot of “buzz” is the Hungarian Szegedi Kave, a Hungarian style espresso with steamed half-and-half, vanilla sugar, Szeged cinnamon, and whipped cream. Another cool thing is their patio where on a warm day you can sit beneath the trees and carved wood faces and enjoy the shade. As you may remember from local history and a movie titled Mrs. Soffel, the Biddle brothers escaped from the Allegheny County jail with the aid of Mrs. Soffel (the warden’s wife who was in love with one of the brothers) in 1902. 401 Biddle Ave., Regent Square/Wilkinsburg.
