why all these ethnic themes when none of the bands are those ethnicities? or is it the food and drink vendors they will have that particular night?

On the Live on Penn website it now delineates – Festivals 1 - 4 p.m.; Concerts 4 - 10 p.m. I think that's the answer – the festival and it's theme have *nothing* to do with the bands.
Plus, the website now lists Guided by Voices on July 12 officially.
Woo hoo!!!!

So I see that admission costs $3 (proceeds for charity)… Do you just pay when you get there? I can't imagine them selling tickets in advance for $3…

For the most part, these are a lot of washed up bands. Other cities that have festivals like this have better and more ecelectic acts.

Another mediocre solo album, and I'd say Rhett could garner some attention for a live on penn spot.

no, the most popular band in DC played for free at the Kennedy Center, Nickel Creek, if only it were Nickelback, then Sonick would be happy

but the Kennedy center was ill set up for that many people making it terrible. I am sure people will have a much better time live on Penn.
Hey big bad Bob, are you going to take me there Saturday?
