You have to know that July in my city (Pistoia, Italy) is always a months full of great events and the most important of them are placed in the main square, the Piazza del Duomo (Dome's Square) so the workers are preparing the place to accommodate the vast number of spectators!
This year, during July, we could see/hear Alanis Morissette, James Blunt, Steve Hackett (the guitar player of the fantastic Genesis!), Mark Lanegan Band and the Supersonic Blues Machine with Billy Gibbons!
Usually, every year, I love to stay in the square during the day to see the reherseal and the sound checks of the artists and, sure, I go to one oor two of the shows ^_^
During the years I saw many artists like David Bowie (Ok, I've always been a great fan of him since I was 14 years old), B.B. King, Santana, Skin, the Dream Theater and many many others. Many many wonderful artists! The only one that I didn't like was the show of Liam Gallagher, he was really drunk, without voice and it was really an horrible show!
This year I think I'll go to hear Hackett, because my hubby loves Genesis so much!
See ya soon and steem on!!!

Oh the beautiful Italy, brings back memories of good times! Lovely pictures @silviabeneforti
Thanks :)
Some nice acts in a very cool looking venue!
(I got a good laugh at your Liam Gallagher experience haha)
It was really bad to hear him that night and just after 30 minutes people drove away from there ;)
You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:
It should be accommodate instead of accomodate.Fixed, thanks ^_^
I love Genesis too. It's amazing that Hackett left the band 40 years ago, but he still plays their music. You get some great acts at your festival
Genesis are really something special, forever and ever! Sometimes we watch some old videos of their shows and they were really great performers!
very nice place... Its a great place for those events.. I wish to see those events soon.
Italy ancient city with history.this event when did it start and what brought about it.
Nice photo!
I wanna go to Italy.
Thanks so much :)
Billy Gibbons is awesome! Jimi Hendrix was once asked who he thought the best guitarist was... he said Billy Gibbons!
Oh wow nice, I'll be moving to florence very soon. Glad to know that someone here lives in Italy :)
