This band is phenomenal. I've been a fan for years and this was the best show I can remember. They love what they do and you can see it. The lead singer, Don Barnes, is 72 I believe and acts like 32. Still an amazing voice and oh he can play!! The newest member is Jerry Riggs. Another amazing guitarist and showman, His solo was from the heart and he loves doing it. Bassist Barry Dunaway is also an amazing player. He puts is all into every show. Bobby Capps is the keyboardist and also sings Second Chance and does backup vocals. He comes out front at times and belts his heart out. And drummer Gary Moffet plays with the best of the best among drummers. His drum solo is simply the best.. So yes this was an amazing show. Kudos to John Livoti who does the sound. He's done this for 29 years and loves it. So, yes it was simply the best concert.. Do yourself a favor and go see these Wild eyed Southern Boys. You won't regret it.

Lou Gramm and 38 Special were the artists and they both didn’t disappoint at all! Lou Gramm belted out hit songs of Foreigner and his solo hits. When he first appeared, my first thought was, oh no he won’t be very good. After he did a couple of songs, I was reassured that wasn’t going to be the case. I saw him in the early eighties, when he was still with Foreigner. Even after all those years, he still sounds great! He performed his show and left the stage and there was a short intermission, then we jammed to 38 Special. I had also seen them in the early eighties! They had changed their lineup some since, back then but they were still awesome! The sound was clear and thunderous! All of the band gave us their best performances. It was a truly awesome experience by both bands. It will be remembered as one of my favorite concerts. Thunder Valley Casino has an incredible venue for the best music experiences. I will gladly go there again and again for concerts.

Awesome show, Don Barnes and the crew rocked the Beau Rivage in Biloxi for sure!!! We enjoyed every minute of the show and are looking forward to a return visit. The only way that it could have been better, would have been if Donnie VanZant was there.
Five star plus show!!!

About 38 Special
38 Special is an American rock band. Formed by Guitarist/Vocalist Don Barnes and vocalist Donnie Van Zant in 1974 in Jacksonville, Florida, the band initially had a straight-ahead Southern rock sound, much like Lynyrd Skynyrd, the band of Donnie's older brother Ronnie.
By the early 1980s, the band began incorporating elements of blues-rock and arena rock into their sound, kicking off a string of successful albums and singles.
Among 38 Special's best-known songs are "Caught Up in You" (1982) and "If I'd Been the One" (1983), both of which hit #1 on Billboard magazine's album rock chart, and "Second Chance" (1989), a #1 hit on Billboard's adult contemporary chart. Their other hit singles include "Hold On Loosely" (1981) and "Back Where You Belong" (1984).
The band is comprised of guitarist/vocalist Don Barnes, guitarist Jerry Riggs, bassist Barry Dunaway, keyboardist Bobby Capps, and drummer Gary Moffatt.
