Yes, IheartPGH.com was gone for a few days. Sept. 1st was our 1st birthday. The past year went by so fast that we didn’t even realize it was a whole year and the domain name expired. Since this was the Friday before labor day weeked it took some super internet sleuthing to find the guy the hosts our site and back on line. But we are now back and ready for another year of Pittsburgh love stories.

Labor Day Party @ the Shadow Lounge
If you are a frequent reader of IheartPGH, you may notice that I like the events at the Shadow Lounge. I really like the events at the Shadow Lounge. This Friday is no exception to that.
Hilary Brown, Justin Strong and Tim Guthrie (who are 3 of the most fun people in Pittsburgh)
Are organizing an amazing evening of labor day fun. And Ms. Hilary Brown has asked IheartPGH.com to be a part of this Soiree! Since I heart the Shadow Lounge and I heart Hilary Brown. I am more than thrilled to tell you about this event.
Friday Sept. 1st, AVA Bar & Lounge (the other half of the Shadow Lounge)
East End Labor Day Party
DJ :: Food :: Dancing :: Drink Specials
The fun start when the doors open at 9pm
21 and over
Dress is Coctail Attire (interpretation of “cocktail attire” may vary, we welcome this). *I am thinking it may be time for the gold lame outfit.
Your $.02 could be worth a lot
Oh baby, if you want to see a better Pittsburgh then this is the event for you! I was lucky enough to attend an earlier version of this 2 summers ago and it was a very interesting and fun Saturday. I am still talking about the cab situation in Pittsburgh.
Anyhow – I am sure this event will be interesting and if you have an idea for something, anything (well as long as it involves Pittsburgh) then this is step one to getting the gears in motion. The good folks at the Sprout Fund have $100,000 to put into grants to fund some of these projects.
So big money aside, this will be a fun day with some fun people – I am planning on attending, and I think I am pretty fun.
Where can I get more info: Check out this webpage http://www.sproutfund.org/Default.aspx?page=engage.home
When: Sat. Sept. 9, 9am-4pm
Where: CAPA High School, Downtown Pittsburgh
How Much: Only $10 and that includes lunch!

Gold Glitter Hearts and more…
We are just getting started with the possibilites of our new online store. But we now have a shop with SpreadShirt.com.

SpreadShirt happens to be based right here in Pittsburgh and offers way better merchandise than the Cafe Press Shop we had up before.
We have just added some new items – including a Black t-shirt with a Gold Glitter heart.

Want to sell t-shirts on your site? Looking for an easy way to design and sell t-shirts? Definitly check out SpreadShirt.com – I can’t say enough about how SpreadShirt is so much better than other online merchandise shops.
– Better looking online shop (you can even customise the header and footer to make it look like your site
– Better Merchandise – colored t-shirts, direct vector prints (way better than just the digital transfers that Cafe Press offers)
– Better customer service
I was so impressed with the people at SpreadShirt that I am now helping them get their new blog up and running.
