The streets of Hollywood overflowed with Public Displays of Affection :: Series Two (PDA) this past Thursday as Ladytron, Great Northern, and DJ Taina performed a free show for all public transportation riders.


Doors opened early as thousands flooded into the Hollywood & Highland Center using their subway/bus pass as their concert ticket. While many believe that people in Los Angeles are notorious for embracing their cars with such passion you would think they were attached at birth, the turnout for our second PDA provides evidence that change is under way and the outlook on public transportation is being redefined.

Public Displays of Affection :: Series 3 will take place in the fall, and will feature new artists in a new venue, with new ideas in transportation. Keep checking back here to receive updates. A huge thank you to the talent, sponsors and partners that made all of this possible. Ladytron, Great Northern, and DJ Taina... Thank you for the incredible performances.
