Director Tony Scott didn’t get to see much of Pittsburgh while in the city shooting his latest release on the silver screen, Unstoppable. Asked whether he got to visit anything outside of the film set while shooting, the reported workaholic director responded, “Swear to God, if I got to the bathroom, I was lucky.”
Even if bathrooms were all Scott got to see in Pittsburgh, we’re proud to say he saw ours. Holed up at Renaissance Pittsburgh during the process, Scott retired (for only 2-5 hours a night, it’s said) to his room at the Renaissance.

If we asked you to hum the melody of that song, “Kiss Me,” by Sixpence None the Richer, you could probably do it. The band’s big hit has been engraved into our permanent memories via commercials and movies like “She’s All That.” Their song “There She Goes” is probably another one you could pluck out the notes to.
So now you’re probably wondering… where has this band been lately? Well, in short, it went something like this: they got famous, broke up, the singer went solo, they reunited in 2007, released an EP, got signed again, and played their first US show in six years last month at the Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood.
The concert was a benefit for MusiCares, an organization that exists to aid musicians in need of help with anything from addiction recovery to financial crisis. The post-show accommodations for the band were at none other than the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel & Spa.
Congrats on your return to the spotlight, Sixpence, and thanks for choosing Renaissance.
