Bishop Gunn

The first "major" US concert since the pandemic lockdown happened in Fort Smith, Arkansas on Monday night. Travis McCready of Bishop Gunn played TempleLive, a converted Masonic temple that normally holds 1100 people but had a reduced capacity of 229 for this show.

Attendees of TempleLive’s Travis McCready show will need to get their temperatures checked, wear masks, and more.

Plus: Guns N' Roses openers, The Menzingers, Metronomy, and tour news.

Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top, Megadeth, Ghost, Mastodon, and more are also playing this new hard rock and metal fest, and campers are invited to show up on their motorcycles.
