Catch this rare Lehigh Valley appearance of Pinnacle.  Best of all,
it's FREE.  We'll play music from our two albums plus new music and a
special cover tune that we haven't played in public since our very
first show in 2002!

We were asked to contribute a track to Tuonen Tytär Volume 2 which pays
tribute to Progressive Rock of the '70s from Finland.  The final
mix has been sent in for this compilation to be released on Musea
Records later this year.
