MSG Sphere is unlike any other concert venue in the world.Typically, fans flock to shows to see their favorite artists perform; they could care less about the stage they stepped foot on.Yet, when the visually spectacular Sphere opened in Sin City in late September 2023, everything changed.Boasting the world’s largest high-definition LED screen that wraps around the crowd as well as a specialized sound system that makes audience members “feel” sound vibrations, suddenly the location was the main attraction.That being said, the performers staging residencies at the spherical concert space are no slouches.Up first, Rock and Roll Hall of Famers U2 delivered the hits.

Dolly Parton is not a rock singer.Nor — as her much-hyped head-banger makeover on “Rockstar” demonstrates — does she have any business making a “rock” album.But, at 77, the country legend has, as much as any living artist today, more than earned the right — at least three lifetimes over — to do whatever the hell she wants.And really, this whole vanity project was fueled by the humility with which Parton has become a goddess on earth. After she was nominated for the Rock & Roll of Fame last year, she gracefully and ever-so-graciously asked for her name to be withdrawn from the ballot.“I don’t feel that I have earned that right,” she said in a statement.

Foghat isn’t tired of their mega-hit single “Slow Ride.”The ubiquitous classic rock staple, that showed up in the 1993 film “Dazed and Confused,” countless commercials and the video game Guitar Hero, still gets the band excited when they play live.“I enjoy it,” original Foghat member, drummer and Long Island resident Roger Earl told the New York Post. “It’s a nine-minute song these days.”After he shared his appreciation for the track, Earl turned the tables and lobbed a question our way.“Do you know what ‘Slow Ride’ is about?” the 77-year-old rock vet asked.Before given a chance to answer, he laughed.“‘Slow Ride’ is about sex!” Earl roared.
