Review: Megadeth and three other metal acts bring life to fans in Rogers
Megadeth remains a bucket-list band, and that feeling hasn’t dulled over time.

Pitbull’s 80-minute set started with a barrage of seven songs in 30 minutes.
Review: A sea of fans greets Phish for their first Arkansas show (and their first since the pandemic started)
Phish operates as a unit, one that’s clearly played together for nearly 40 years.
The Top 10 albums of 2019 (that I listened to, anyway)
This is a best attempt at a best-of list. I hope something here that moves you, too.
Sheryl Crow and Jason Isbell link up for music-first night of songs and collaborative spirit
Both bands were well-oiled machines.
REVIEW WITH PHOTOS: The ‘ALTimate’ tour with Live and Bush brings ultimate reminder of the past and present to Walmart AMP
Always go see your favorite music from your first musical days when you have a chance.
REVIEW: Hootie & the Blowfish take themselves, and a massive AMP crowd, down memory lane
Nostalgia sells. And Hootie & the Blowfish continue to be very good salesmen.

REVIEW: Ringo Starr acts like his naturally goofy self during a concert that brings the Beatles to Northwest Arkansas
The various members would take the lead for a song made popular by their original band, which meant we got to hear songs such as Africa, Evil Ways, Who Can It Be Now? and Down Under.
REVIEW: Slayer brings the heat in final tour, which also brings in four other metal acts to Rogers
When you’re being beaten over the head with a stick, you don’t always stop to ask what kind of wood it is. A Slayer show is a little like that, but with more fire.

Those at the show got to see Halsey push through her hits and adorn them with blasts of dramatic smoke, pyrotechnic charges and dancing.
