Jon and Braden Akin of Atlanta arrived at Las Vegas Ballpark at 4 p.m. Friday to secure the best seats available, making the journey well worth their while – thousands turned out for an exhibition game between Savannah Bananas and Party Animals which sold-out.
Savannah’s minor league baseball team, The Bananas, have become viral sensations thanks to their eccentric in-game antics and online fame. Players swing flaming bats during games while pitching from stilts. Their choreographed dance routines designed specifically for video app TikTok have drawn in millions of followers (the Bananas currently boast over 6 million on TikTok; surpassing every MLB franchise by far!).
Once a game starts, the Bananas often indulge in acts that would get any big-league club in trouble – like filling their batting cages with banana peels and having players parade past home plate like they own the place, which would likely earn them an immediate beaning back home but is treated with near reverence here.
Not content with that, the Bananas also boast an amazing team of “dance monkeys”, who perform incredible acrobatic moves between pitches in an effort to dazzle fans with mind-bending music videos-esque visuals. Other entertainers on display at games include Maceo the Dancing First-Base Coach and Banana Nanas — retired line-dancing retirees that perform like senior versions of Harlem Globetrotters — while performing behind their dugout like senior versions of Harlem Globetrotters themselves!
Beyond all of the off-field shenanigans, there is also an actual baseball game being played between all of this crazy activity – much to my own amazement and initial skepticism, I find out that Bananas actually play quite an excellent game!
The Bananas, winners of the 2021 CPL title, typically play against an opposing team known as Party Animals that serves as their opponent much like how Washington Generals and Harlem Globetrotters match up in NBA action. Rival teams may vary city by city while playing formats can change too with Banana Ball featuring nine rule changes designed to speed play up and points awarded for innings won rather than runs scored – an exciting concept which helped lead them to two consecutive championships in CPL play!
Garth Brooks is one of the most influential musicians in music history. Selling over 148 million albums worldwide, this Oklahoma native made country music globally popular. His groundbreaking live shows that were modeled after 70’s rock performances often sold out within minutes and featured pyrotechnics, elaborate light shows and acrobatics – an accomplishment which earned him nearly 30 years’ of recognition in his field of country music presentation.
Brooks worked odd jobs and pursued his dream of becoming a country star for years before signing with Capitol Records in 1988. However, after performing at the Bluebird Cafe for a writer’s showcase event that same year – something which had previously been turned down – it changed everything for Brooks when an executive from his previous record label noticed him performing as part of a writer showcase and decided to sign him!
Since his self-titled debut album in 1989, Garth Brooks has released several critically and commercially successful albums such as Ropin’ the Wind in 1991, In Pieces in 1993, The Hits in 1994, and Fresh Horses in 1995. Additionally he starred in two movies; Unbroken and The Bodyguard as well as starting The Garth Brooks Show which became one of the highest rated syndicated series at that time.
In 2009, he signed a three-year contract to perform intimate shows at Wynn Las Vegas that proved so well received they were broadcast live by CBS. While on stage he shared personal experiences and discussed family values that resonated with audiences – ultimately reaching 9.33 million people via his concert special! A phenomenal feat indeed.
Over his long career, Brooks has long been an enthusiastic supporter of charity work. In 1998 he initiated Teammates for Kids which has amassed more than $90 Million since. It recruits professional athletes to make donations based on their achievements in sport.
Brooks and Trisha Yearwood have three daughters together: Taylor, August and Allie. Since 2005, the couple has kept an unassuming profile as they worked to raise their daughters while finding balance between work and home life. In 2007, Brooks took an extended hiatus from performing; later citing this move as being made for his daughters’ needs and to give himself time with Trisha Yearwood while continuing work on music while supporting charities through his Teammates for Kids foundation. However, in late 2018 he delighted his fans by returning with his All-Time Greatest Live Tour performance.

Feld Entertainment constructs elaborate Monster Jam tracks featuring massive jumps and ramps to accommodate world-class driver athletes from their iconic trucks on tour around the globe. For every performance, Feld Entertainment builds elaborate tracks featuring world-class driver athletes.
Once racing and two-wheel skills competitions conclude, freestyle events take over with racing, backflipping and wheelies galore! Fans attend these shows specifically for this purpose; two minutes is given to drivers to break freestyle moves on the dirt crew through backflips and wheelies!
The trucks
Monster Jam trucks are enormous, heavy-duty vehicles designed to withstand high speeds and massive impacts, boasting distinctive paint jobs, chassis designs, and suspension systems. Drivers compete in racing or freestyle events – the winners advancing onto subsequent rounds.
Grave Digger, Max-D, El Toro Loco and Megalodon are four of the most acclaimed trucks, attracting huge crowds at every event they participate in. Each vehicle’s popularity can fluctuate based on how many races it wins and how many fans it attracts; additional gains include meet-and-greets, autograph signings and charitable activities that take place.
Fans can experience close interaction between trucks and fans at the Pit Party, an exclusive activity separate from the main show that requires purchasing an additional Pit Party ticket in addition to your event ticket. Hours and activities of this exclusive experience depend on location; in order to remain compliant with health and safety protocols set by local authorities’ guidelines.
The competitions
Safety is of utmost importance at Monster Jam events. Each venue works closely with Monster Jam to develop evacuation plans and address other safety-related matters specific to that location. Furthermore, each show floor features a “safety hold,” consisting of several rows surrounding the show floor which must remain clear during all performances.
Monster Jam competition involves three forms of competition for trucks: racing, two-wheel skills and freestyle. Racing competition is measured by time spent to complete, while freestyle and two-wheel skills competitions score each driver individually based on performance in individual competitions.
Monster Jam shows feature freestyle competition as one of the primary events, drawing both spectators and critics. Although critics claim drivers use freestyle to cause crashes and rollovers for spectators’ entertainment, an emphasis placed on using all available time has helped reduce this tendency. A new tiebreaker rule has also provided relief to this effect.
The fans
Monster Jam fans are an essential component to its continued growth and success. Fans like Julie Cohen from Chicago – who brought her 11-year-old son Benjamin along to an event recently – express how much they enjoy seeing Monster Jam trucks speed through an obstacle-filled track at full throttle!
Monster Jam operates both arena and stadium shows as well as an official competitive season that begins each January and concludes with its World Finals each May, as well as exhibition events taking place all through summer and fall. All series operations are managed out of Feld Entertainment’s facility in Palmetto, Florida which Dalsing refers to as being “the largest motorsports shop on earth.”
Employees at the company handle everything from choreographing truck entry and exit in hot pits to managing cold pits with trailers for independent teams. In addition, there’s a massive warehouse where each show’s fleet of trucks, parts, and supplies are kept. All this work goes into keeping fans like Cohen happy!
The atmosphere
Monster Jam is an enjoyable family event and children two and under attend free as long as they sit on their parent or guardian’s lap. However, some venues require all fans aged two and up (including pre-show Pit Party tickets, Early Access passes and VIP Experience tickets ) to purchase tickets for all events, including Pit Partys, Early Access passes or VIP Experience tickets; please check your venue of interest for further details.
Unsurprisingly, you might also be shocked to discover that many truck drivers are women. Truck driving attracts female competitors just as talented and skilled as its male competitors [source: UF]. Furthermore, endurance and strength remain equal among both genders [source: UF].
Before heading out to your next Monster Jam show, set aside any preconceptions about its audience. While you might expect camo clothing and American flags in abundance, don’t make assumptions based on stereotypes; every show draws together people from diverse backgrounds.
Cleveland concert promoters face a complex process when trying to bring large concerts into Cleveland. There are numerous factors they must take into account, including available dates, venue space and expenses associated with hosting shows as well as travel. But in order for it all to work successfully: an artist who can sell out stadiums must also be interested in Cleveland, with dates that fit with their schedules being of prime importance.
Billy Joel and Rod Stewart made headlines this week with the announcement that they will co-headline a concert at Cleveland Browns Stadium on September 13th for their inaugural co-headlining concert since both are Hall of Fame artists with iconic hits internationally as singer-songwriters, both have been honored with induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; Joel in 1999 solo artist status, Stewart as part of The Faces in 1994.
On Thursday, Mayor Justin Bibb, Destination Cleveland CEO David Gilbert and Live Nation SVP of Marketing and Sponsorship Sales Barry Gabel met at a press conference to announce the concert, with tickets going on sale to the general public for sale starting February 2.
Though both musicians will perform, fans can anticipate an emphasis on Joel’s classics at this concert. Joel is one of the biggest-selling solo artists ever, having sold over 160 million albums and singles in the US alone; six-time Grammy winners (including receiving an honorary Lifetime Achievement Award from Grammy) as well as having held monthly residencies at Madison Square Garden since 2014.
Rod Stewart has enjoyed an illustrious career that includes ten Top 10 albums in the UK and 16 Top 20 singles. He has received many of the music industry’s highest honours, such as being named New York Times bestselling author, ASCAP Founders Award for Songwriting, Grammy Living Legend status and two-time induction into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame – in 2021 he was honored to receive knighthood by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace.
Recently he has toured with Elton John, KISS and Genesis; last year he performed at Ohio Stadium with Stevie Nicks. Additionally he will perform at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa on February 24, Petco Park in San Diego on April 13, Busch Stadium in St Louis on September 27 and Alamodome in Denver on October 25 – not to mention touring his own band, The Ronnie Wood Experience this summer; tickets for their show in Cleveland go on sale February 2.
Outlaw Music Festival debuted as a one-off event in Scranton in 2016 but has since grown into a touring festival that honors an American icon. The 2024 tour launches June 21 at Ameris Bank Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, Georgia before making stops across New York City and Pennsylvania before ending with John Mellencamp replacing Robert Plant and Alison Krauss for concerts at Holmdel, NJ; Bethel Woods Center for the Arts; Burgettstown; Holmdel NJ; Bethel Woods Center for the Arts as well as support from The Avett Brothers; Nathaniel Rateliff and Night Sweats; Flatland Cavalry; Flatland Cavalry; Celisse complete this tour’s lineup.
Even in the wake of an outbreak that kept Outlaw Music Festival performers away, its 2024 iteration proves it can withstand time. Blackbird Presents and Live Nation Concerts will bring this iconic roster of performers from Blackbird Presents through September, taking their show across America.
Riverbend Music Center was an ideal venue to host this show, situated along the Ohio River where Ohio and Kentucky come together. The lineup’s range of genres, generations, and geographies mirrored how this body of water serves as a symbol for uniting society through our different factions.
Mellencamp opened his show with an electrifying set that included his recent single, “Sick of It All”. This song featuring Kris Kristofferson as vocalist offers an indictment against modern society where individuals focus so heavily on maintaining themselves that they forget what it means to be human. As Mellencamp sang his message that, “we must put an end to all this noise / It can be hard being humble when you’re under the spotlight”, his audience responded with enthusiastic applause as Mellencamp sang those lines:
After Mellencamp had wrapped his set, the stage was cleared for Nelson to take the stage and to join Mellencamp’s show. Nelson walked into the center of the audience and began singing while taking in all that surrounded him – an unforgettable moment that set the scene for an incredible evening filled with musical magic and inspiring messages.
At the show’s conclusion, everyone was smiling broadly from start to finish! Classic and new songs alike were played, bringing joyous singing from all attendees who joined in singing along and dancing through the night.
An unforgettable highlight of the evening came when Nelson took to a chair and began to perform “Whiskey River.” To their delight, applause echoed through the theater as this legendary singer performed it for only the second time ever – to which all attendees applauded and applauded! His performance brought an extraordinary night full of wonderful memories; its last chorus being met with an enthusiastic roar of approval by everyone attending! A memory that will long remain.
Social media star Paul will face off with former heavyweight champion Tyson in a professional boxing fight that is sure to create widespread excitement. Netflix recently expanded their sports offerings, adding golf and tennis events, while simultaneously becoming the world’s leading live streamer of major sporting events; Paul-Tyson will be available to all subscribers of their video-streaming platform.
Paul first gained prominence through early internet influencer roles on Vine and later YouTube before turning pro in 2020 with a 9-1 record featuring six knockouts. Additionally, Paul has made waves as an action and comedy film actor. While Tyson held onto his heavyweight championship through two unsuccessful titles bids before retiring after going 50-6 with two no-contest bouts; since their exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr in November 2021 he has not returned to the ring.
At AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Although details for the fight have yet to be finalized, Paul’s business partner Nakisa Bidarian has confirmed that no headgear will be worn; negotiations are currently taking place to make this an official, professional sanctioned fight.
Regulated sportsbooks have yet to release odds for this fight, however Bovada, an offshore, unregulated betting site which does not operate within the US legal framework, posted initial odds that favor Paul at -500 with Tyson following at +325.
Tyson released a statement regarding their fight, in which he expressed enthusiasm to give Jake some of what’s coming his way and promised that, should it prove difficult, “if he is unable to handle it inside of the ring, he will be shown the door!”
While some have dismissed Paul’s matchup with Woodley as unfair, former opponent Tyron Woodley remains hopeful about its outcome and believes Paul can win the bout. Woodley told The New York Post he thinks Paul can win by taking steps such as using more punches during their encounter in December 2023 and also through physical strength alone.
Tyson and Paul each enjoy huge social followings, which could result in millions of viewers watching the bout – possibly making it one of the biggest draws ever in sports since Mayweather and Pacquiao managed 4.6 million PPV buys for their 2015 match-up.
Paul, who has struggled to improve his image over time, hopes that winning this fight and improving his public perception would be a significant step in the right direction. He hopes he does so before Tyson becomes vulnerable in Rounds 2-3 so as not to lose face, and be considered a victor in most fans’ eyes if that happens. If that occurs he should win back many haters but that is OK too – success should always come at its own price!
Music permeates every aspect of human society. From psychotherapy, geriatrics, and advertising to psychotherapy sessions for dementia sufferers and advertisements aimed at young children, it echoes emotions while acting as an influence. Music’s versatile nature lends itself well to song, opera and dance forms alike; since 40,000-year-old bone flutes were discovered scientists and philosophers have attempted to understand its source and nature and its role.
Many theories of music attempt to provide a comprehensive explanation of its key attributes and characteristics, from acoustical considerations to Plato’s philosophical school’s view that music embodies a higher truth.
Key to the development of music lies its interaction with human bodies, which react to musical instruments and vocalisations in ways that affect mood, emotional state, intellectual processes and cognitive processes. It is one reason why music can serve as such an effective form of self-expression.
Music can also help people connect with one another and elicit emotional responses from them, which is crucial in building relationships and strengthening communities. A mother singing to her baby or men dancing together before hunting or combat are just two examples. Music has even been used during lockdowns related to COVID-19 pandemic outbreaks to provide relief from feelings of anxiety or isolation.
Early music probably took shape as percussion instruments like hollow logs and stones; it is speculated that humans used their voices instead as an early form of instrumentation. Storyteller-composers likely used musical composition to elicit emotions in listeners; later romantic artists like Beethoven, Chopin, and Brahms expanded upon classical composition by adding complexity to compositions while exploring emotional depths within themselves.
Neuroscientists and psychologists have revealed that listening to music stimulates the brain, improves mental health and can reduce stress levels. Music may also aid rehabilitation after injury or surgery and enhance learning both for children and adults alike. Researchers even suggest it could possibly even boost memory or delay age-related cognitive decline.
Every musician strives for artistic perfection through music – whether that means the rhythmic beats of pop songs or orchestral pieces – in order to express emotion through their work and communicate feelings to an audience. Music’s universal appeal makes it a key part of our shared cultural heritage; historically it has marked important milestones like monarchies being inaugurated or exhibition openings, lending it power as a force of social cohesion while contributing to global peace through collective aspirations for world peace.

If you are attending a concert at an amphitheater, be sure to pack a cooler full of beverages and food, but remember to leave glass containers behind. While there are vendors inside the venue offering food products, their costs and crowding levels may make them prohibitive for some attendees. Hydrate frequently as being 6,500 feet above sea level means drinking lots of water can keep you feeling refreshed and hydrated throughout the show. Uber/carpool with friends as parking may be limited and exiting could take quite some time before getting back home.
Los Temerarios are more than just a band; they offer an experience. With captivating performances and timeless music that has won them an army of fans worldwide, Los Temerarios’ appeal continues to build as fans eagerly anticipate news about new music releases, tour schedules and exclusive behind-the-scenes content from them.
Gustavo and Adolfo Angel, brothers who had performed together for more than 45 years as part of an iconic Mexican romantic music group, sent out shockwaves across fan bases and music industry alike with their announcement of separation via social media posts explaining their decision.
Los Temerario are one of the premier Latin music bands, best-known for their emotive romantic ballads and orchestral arrangements. Combining traditional instruments with contemporary synthesizers to produce their signature sound. Established in Fresnillo, Zacatecas Mexico in 1977.
Even though the group disbanded in the early ’90s, their legacy still lives on through classic songs such as La Mujer que Sone and Una Lastima No Basta which remain beloved classics today. Additionally, many iconic musicians from this band appeared in movies and TV shows like El Secreto de la Bruja as actors or musicians.
They have won multiple awards and nominations and sold more than 45 million albums, earning a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame and being inducted into the Museum of Contemporary Mexican Art’s Hall of Fame. Additionally, Marc Anthony Foundation and Orange Laces Scholarship support various causes through which they dedicate time and efforts philanthropically.
Last release was a live album recorded at Mexico City‘s Palacio de Bellas Artes and featuring their biggest hits – it was met with great acclaim both from fans and critics alike. “Como Te Recuerdo”, for instance, shows their talent for writing emotive ballads with its combination of acoustic guitars, strings and an emotional tenor solo that addresses loss of love as well as pain associated with its loss.
Los Temerarios’ music consists of two styles, baladas and rancheras. Baladas feature women singing melodies with meaningful lyrics while rancheras feature men with dramatic, masculine themes. Grupo, in its early years, consisted primarily of sexualized pop melodies. Today however, its genre has expanded significantly and incorporates various sounds and styles; most popular groups produce songs which appeal to both young people and adults.
