This weekend, the 2009 All Points West Music & Arts Festival in Liberty State Park took over Jersey City, offering the tri-state area incredible entertainment a whole lot more accessible than the treks required for Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, or several of the other music must-sees. Friday kicked off this year's shows, including sets from Jay-Z, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Vampire Weekend, the Fleet Foxes, Q-Tip, Pharcyde and many more. As you can see, the tunes not only drew a huge crowd, but heads bobbed against the dramatic backdrop of our beautiful city. Stay tuned for full coverage, coming soon.
