After winning one of seven spots on Mnet survival show I-Land 2020, ENHYPEN members began spreading their message and pushing K-pop forward. Since they first debuted with their Manifesto: Day 1 EP back in October 2019, ENHYPEN have made great strides to accomplish their mission – earning South Korea’s ninth biggest-selling album for 2021 and numerous TV appearances; though they remain grateful for any accolades bestowed upon them so far, but are committed to taking things even further.
DARK BLOOD marks ENHYPEN’s return to vampiric themes present in their debut, featuring an anthemic dark power anthem and an overarching tale of transformation and power – but now with greater confidence in their vision.
JUNGWON, HEESEUNG, JAY, NI-KI, SUNG-HOON and SUNOO form the inaugural septet signed under belift Lab–a joint venture between HYBE and CJ E&M. Although each boy hails from different backgrounds and personalities, their disparate experiences come together well to form one strong team.
As some K-pop groups can fall prey to being too polished and artificial, ENHYPEN’s preppy melodies and infectious beats exude an organic quality that feels more genuine. Their music also speaks volumes of ENHYPEN being a fun group who likes letting loose and having an enjoyable experience; their music truly encapsulates this.
The new album opens with “Fate,” an atmospheric spoken-word intro similar to those on their other albums. While solid, this version seems underutilized since most of it doesn’t allow for singing from any of the guys involved. Next comes “Blessed-Cursed,” a dark rock track which explores an all-too-common reality: fame and reaching your goals may not always deliver what was promised.
ENHYPEN also covers a One Direction classic on “What Makes You Beautiful”, trading off vocals to highlight each member’s individual sound and creating a pop-influenced track that sounds as if it could have been written just for them.
As soon as you listen to this EP, it becomes evident that all seven band members are talented musicians. Sunghoon can rap with some of the top artists, while Jay stands out with her beautiful voice–especially in choruses. In addition, Sunoo’s piano skills showcase how versatile their group truly is–they can turn nearly any genre into something catchy and appealing; we can’t wait to see what comes next from these guys.
An hour and a half prior to opening of Las Vegas Ballpark for a Savannah Bananas game against the Savannah Party Animals, fans were lined up outside. Jon and Braden Akin were among them and ready to wait out in the rain in order to secure themselves seats for this fixture.
Since Jesse Cole launched the Bananas two years ago, their exhibition baseball team has quickly taken off. Playing “Banana Ball,” their fan-focused, entertainment-heavy brand of baseball draws crowds while adding new twists into an ancient sport like baseball. Home games for Grayson Stadium’s Bananas can be found in Savannah but this year they embarked on a 33-city, 22-state world tour which sold out stadiums along the way!
When the team arrives in a city, it brings with them 2,000 banana suits for fans to wear during games – leading many to line up outside of stadium before gates open to claim their costumes and receive free food and gear from them as a thank-you for being early.
The Bananas also employ some unique rules when playing their baseball games, such as an unusual scoring system that rewards teams with points for innings won instead of just runs scored and no walks being permitted. Cole says former MLB players often contact him about making guest appearances and performing routines during breaks between innings for entertainment purposes – something Cole describes as the Banana Nanas who provide performances during break between innings!
As part of his routine, Bananas pitcher Dakota Albritton stands on stilts for most games he pitches or bats while wearing them – to the delight of fans everywhere! Dakota earns some of the greatest crowd responses during each time at bat or pitching!
Though initially unfamiliar with playing baseball in its purist sense, Y’alls quickly adjust to Bananas’ quirky atmosphere and take note of early highlights, such as one Bananas player catching a foul ball in the stands with their back turned; or one Party Animals shortstop fielding a groundball by placing both hands behind his head before throwing out a runner at first base.
But for fans of both Bananas and Party Animals alike, what really stands out is improvisation and energy; this was evident when one of Bananas players, nicknamed Drew by fans, caught a foul ball in the outfield on his knees before flipping it back towards the crowd to record an out. As soon as this occurred, excitement ran high across the field – as did an ovation for this stunning feat of athleticism – truly capturing that nostalgic feeling from childhood when baseball wasn’t so focused on balls versus strikes, pitch counts or wins and losses but rather simply about fun and athleticism!
Shows feature world-renowned driver athletes and iconic monster trucks, giving viewers the opportunity to see them compete head-to-head racing competitions as well as other performances not related to racing.
Fans score drivers on jumps and flips they complete in their vehicles, including axle breaking and fiberglass body shredding, which thrill both young people and old alike.
What is a Monster Jam?
Monster Jam features professional drivers navigating 12,000-pound monster trucks through speed and skill-based competitions held in stadiums and arenas nationwide.
Drivers often express themselves through their trucks. Brianna Mahon drives Whiplash, an eye-catching bright aqua Western-themed truck. Before her Monster Jam career started, Brianna had extensive motocross racing experience as well as being known for her aggressive driving style and high-flying stunts.
Fans have an opportunity to vote on their favorite trucks during freestyle competitions. Each vehicle on the event floor has two minutes to put on an entertaining show featuring jumps, tricks and flips that leave viewers completely mesmerized – fiberglass bodies often getting shed while axles break under pressure and even flames sometimes breaking out!
Monster Jam’s lineup of competitions extends far beyond head-to-head racing. While freestyle remains its signature event, there are also two-wheel skills and motocross events to enjoy. Monster Jam competitive season kicks off every January and culminates with World Finals every May; exhibition shows continue into summer and fall for exhibition shows.
What is the show like?
Monster Jam shows are loud, fast-paced, and enjoyable experiences for the entire family. There is an overwhelming sense of pride and teamwork among fans who come together to cheer for their favorite drivers, while adult spectators find the turbo-charged engines and crushing sounds of giant metal trucks thrilling and invigorating; children sit comfortably enjoying sticky blue cotton candy and heavy breading chicken nuggets drizzled in ketchup from their seats.
Freestyle events feature drivers performing stunts and tricks such as backflips and two-wheeled skills challenges in order to wow the audience and earn points towards placing in an event. As in any subculture, Monster Jam fans have their own language; one term being cyclone which refers to high speed donuts while an endo is defined as an unexpected front-end rollover crash.
Shows are unscripted, meaning each event can be completely unpredictable and unique. On rare occasions, debris such as dirt or cars may fly into spectator stands during competition and cause injury.
What are the trucks like?
Monster Jam’s Monster Truck Racing features truck racing, speedster racing and group ATV racing; however, its freestyle event allows drivers to truly show their talents. Cyclones (high-speed doughnuts) or riding the wave – jumping up and down while precariously standing on front tires – earn drivers high scores in this event.
Like any subculture, motorcross has its own language: pago refers to doing wheelies with rear tires on and bouncing forward; an endo is defined as an unexpected front-end rollover which crashes; there are many safety measures in place like braided steel cables tethering each tire to its axle for example.
Monster truck drivers are professional athletes. Krysten Anderson, the first female driver who operates Grave Digger, must tame its 1,500 horsepower engines. These machines can produce loud noise that even children attending my show needed foam plugs to protect their ears from, but kids adore these exciting sounds that pump adrenaline!
What is the fan base like?
Monster Jam draws a wide audience, including children. No matter their age, fans remain passionate about this event and its competitors.
Since 1993, freestyle has become the centerpiece of events. First introduced as an option after losing early rounds of racing, freestyle allows drivers to display their driving talent after early round losses.
Over the history of USHRA and Monster Jam events, there have been rare instances when something from a truck or crush car accidentally struck spectators during freestyle competition. While most often this has caused minor inconvenience for spectators in attendance, on one occasion this caused serious injury when part of Natural High vehicle struck and struck an innocent small child in the head, ultimately killing him.
Feld Entertainment has made changes to Gunslinger over time in order to make it more family-friendly, such as its redesign in 2017 to remove images of guns on his body following 49 deaths at Pulse nightclub and five years since 20 children and six staff were shot at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut.
Brooks fundamentally transformed country music and what it meant to be a country artist when he launched his career in the early ’90s. From his internationally successful world tours and number one albums to changing attitudes about country music worldwide, his impact can still be felt today. This two-night special features in-depth conversations between Brooks and those closest to him such as Sandy his first wife; daughter Taylor; August and Allie his sons as well as his manager, fellow musicians and other influential people who helped shape his story.
Garth Brooks: The Road I’m On is produced by Endeavor Content’s Non-Scripted Division and Film 45 for A&E Network, under Michael Antinoro as executive producer and Matthew Goldberg and Will Staeger as co-executive producers for A&E.
This special chronicles the life and music of Brooks from his birth in Oklahoma through to his current prominence and significance in popular culture. Utilizing archive footage and new interviews with Brooks himself, this profile explores his complex personal life as well as what led to his success musically.
This program follows Brooks as he builds his musical career from humble beginnings, performing in bars and dives on the side. When his self-titled debut album by Capitol Records was released in April 1989, it quickly became both critically and commercially successful with hit songs such as “If Tomorrow Never Comes” and “The Dance.” By its time of release it had already earned platinum certification – eventually garnering him two ACM Awards (Song and Record of the Year respectively) as well as one Grammy Award (Best Country Album).
Brooks family was expanding, and he began spending more and more time with his children, eventually leading him to make the decision in 2000 to retire from music and focus on raising Taylor Mayne, August Anna and Allie Colleen – three daughters that would go on to form Scarecrow, his final studio album before becoming full-time fathers for over 10 years.
Brooks was an active supporter of numerous charities during his absence, most notably Teammates for Kids – which recruits professional athletes to donate money directly to organizations in their communities – as well as remaining actively involved with his co-founding of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society back in 1999.
In 2014, Brooks made headlines when he announced he was coming out of retirement and would release a new album and tour. Since then he has performed at arenas, theaters and stadiums – for the first time ever!
Time Traveler will hit US audiences across the United States in November 2019. Comprised of both a full-length concert film that will debut later in 2019, and additional material and previously unreleased tracks, Brooks was inspired to embark on this project by current country political climate and to keep telling country tales that are relevant in today’s modern age.
Concerts can be an amazing way to spend time with your friends while listening to your favorite tunes. Though tickets may seem expensive, think of it as an investment that will create memories you won’t forget anytime soon – crowd energy creates an unforgettable atmosphere which cannot be replicated anywhere else! For experienced concertgoers or those new to concertgoing, here are a few key takeaways you should keep in mind for having the best experience.
Music has long been recognized for its ability to reduce stress levels and enhance mood. Attending live performances can be especially therapeutic as you feel the energy of the crowd while connecting with artists through their lyrics. Furthermore, concerts bring people together who may never otherwise meet, such as during 1985 Live Aid concert which united nations through music alone.
Planning a concert requires selecting performers that resonate with both your audience and event objectives, and who also fit locally so as to reduce travel costs and foster community connection between performers and audience members. Local talent often shares more in common with local communities, making for easier bonding between performers and viewers.
Concerts that feature up-and-coming musicians provide you with an opportunity to discover new music. Not only can these concerts give you access to sampling the new talent but they’re also great places to support local musicians by purchasing merchandise and attending shows!
An important rule when attending concerts is showing due respect to both performers and their music, including refraining from taking pictures or recording during performances – this will only become distracting to both musicians and their fans alike! Furthermore, being kind and polite to other attendees including staff and security guards should also be observed.
There have been many memorable concerts throughout history that have left their mark. Some moments are memorable because of incredible performances while others become known due to stampedes, explosions or acts of violence that take place at concerts – although these incidents are rare, they serve as a stark reminder that live events can be dangerous places.
Concert experiences vary, yet concerts offer an excellent way to connect with friends and enjoy music you love. Being immersed in thousands of others who all share similar interests is unparalleled – this sense of community contributes greatly to mental wellbeing and promotes a healthier lifestyle. Furthermore, sharing an artist you admire provides pride and happiness unlike anything found at home; thus making concerts an essential experience that every individual should try at least once in their life!
Officials from Cleveland and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced Thursday an exciting event: Billy Joel and Rod Stewart will perform at Cleveland Browns Stadium on September 13th! These legendary artists have already performed in our region – Joel at Progressive Field last year and Stewart playing Blossom last summer – so the news conference held by Mayor Justin Bibb, partner Whitney Haslam Johnson of Haslam Sports Group, Destination Cleveland CEO David Gilbert and Live Nation Senior Vice President Marketing and Sponsorship Sales Barry Gabel provided more details of this concert event.
This will mark the first time these legendary artists will perform together, beginning with a Citi presale on Monday, January 29 and going on sale to the general public starting Friday, Feb 2. Tickets go on sale to everyone starting Saturday, Feb 2 at 12 noon.

Joel is also an accomplished painter, with multiple paintings displayed across galleries worldwide and four books published, including his autobiography ‘Piano Man: My Life in Music.’ Additionally, Joel has been married three times and has a daughter named Alexa from his first marriage with Elizabeth Weber Small; their waitress character in “She’s Got a Way” was inspired by her. They divorced in 1982 before marrying model Christie Brinkley who gave him daughter Della Rose before divorcing him again in 1994; eventually Joel married chef Katie Lee whom gave birth to Michael just months before splitting again, then later divorced by Joel in 2019.
He has lived in Montauk, New York for more than 20 years and currently rents his home out through Airbnb.
2024 saw the Outlaw Music Festival bring big names and big shows to cities all over the United States. While lineups can differ depending on where fans attend the concert, fans know they can always count on an extraordinary lineup of musicians providing them with an unforgettable concert experience that cannot be missed!
Cincinnati’s Riverbend Music Center served as an ideal starting point of this tour, located at the border between Ohio and Kentucky. This unique setting provided a fitting setting for this concert’s varied lineup that combined genres, generations, geographies and geological features. Waylon Payne kicked things off with a solo acoustic set featuring his distinctive style as a child of two country music artists while Avett Brothers provided an entertaining set featuring rock elements infused with bluegrass influences (such as their version of “Vanity”).
After seeing Willie Nelson & Family perform their opening acts, the crowd moved towards the main stage to witness Willie Nelson & Family take the stage for their inaugural performance of this tour. This iconic American musician is known for their classic songs as well as energetic performances that bring audiences together.
Following the first set, Nelson’s daughter Lurleen joined his band onstage for a duet that showcased her unique voice and ability to convey emotion through singing. Lurleen sang one of his most beloved tracks from “The Promise of a Rose Garden”, “Pretty Woman”.
Nelson launched into an expressive solo that concluded with the cheeky line, “It can be challenging being humble when you are as successful as me.
After their set at the 2023 Outlaw Music Festival tour’s encore performance, The Avett Brothers returned out for one last set of hits before closing it out with their cover of Bob Dylan’s “It’s All Right Now.” Their show served as a fitting way to mark Willie Nelson’s 90th birthday celebrations during this tour.
The Outlaw Music Festival is an annual touring music event that brings the best in outlaw country and Americana genres to various cities throughout the year. This year’s tour featured an incredible roster of legendary musical artists.
Willie Nelson & Family, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, Bob Dylan and John Mellencamp were joined onstage by Trampled by Turtles, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway, Flatland Cavalry, Brittney Spencer and Particle Kid; as well as Avett Brothers.

Are you a fan of Mike Tyson or Jake Paul? Later this summer, fans will get the opportunity to see them fight each other in the boxing ring at AT&T Stadium – home of Dallas Cowboys – on July 20. Netflix will livestream the event, marking its first foray into live combat sports events.
According to a news release from Most Valuable Promotions co-founded by Paul, this fight will be produced. At 27 years old and with nine wins out of 11 including six knockouts he most recently defeated Ryan Bourland by first round TKO March 2. Paul boasts an imposing 76″ reach that places him among modern boxing’s highest reaching heavyweights.
Tyson has not competed since an exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. ended in a split draw in November 2020, yet remains one of the most recognized figures in boxing history. Hailing from Ohio himself and currently living in Westlake suburb of Cleveland.
Paul and Tyson’s bout is certain to generate plenty of excitement, yet some may consider its hype to be excessive. Paul is currently ranked as a contender in the lightweight division and has received multiple honors and awards for his fighting style and professional growth as a boxer, including ESPNRingside’s 2021 Knockout of the Year honor.
Tyson may find it challenging to win this fight given his age of 58 and steadily approaching social security eligibility compared to Paul’s 27 years and three decades younger age. Without miraculous improvement in conditioning it would be hard for Tyson to come out victorious from this fight.
There are serious safety concerns over this fight. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, responsible for overseeing combat sports in Texas, has yet to make an announcement as to its plans for this match-up; additionally, MMA’s state governing body Professional Fighters Association is yet to decide if this match-up should go forward.
Even amid controversy surrounding this fight, ticket sales should go well. Tickets are already on sale with prices beginning at $50 for general admission and up to $1,500 for ringside seats. Early this week, heavyweight boxer Derek Chisora made claims about their bout which caused considerable outrage and controversy. But Nakisa Bidarian of Most Valuable Promotions swiftly refuted these statements as misplaced. Bidarian has confirmed that all safety measures will be in place and fighters will not need to wear headgear. As well as Tyson versus Tyson, an additional card featuring lesser-known boxers will take place the same night and can be watched via both Netflix and Ticketmaster apps – for more details click here or for additional sports coverage follow Dispatch Sportkeeda Blog on social media.
