Bret Michaels brought the party home to Central Pennsylvania on September 14th on the Penn Heroes Stage at the Hollywood Casino at PNRC, and it was a night to remember. As a Mechanicsburg native, this concert was more than just another stop on his Parti-Gras 2.0 tour—it was a heartfelt homecoming, and the energy was palpable from start to finish. Bret performed here last August and promised to bring the party back again, and boy did he ever.
