Friday night, downtown Provo was completely shut down from end to end. Center Street was packed with people, all waiting for the legendary Provo Rooftop Concert Series show of the night to begin. The beloved concert series returned on May 15 of this year after a nearly six-year hiatus. Founders Mindy Gledhill, Courtney Kendrick, Justin Hackworth, and Sarah Wiley began the series with hopes of launching a platform in encouragement of local music. With three out of four original founders in attendance, the second show amidst the return of the Rooftop Concert Series featured The Moss, Beeson, and Bonneville.

There are concerts, and then there are parties. When Pitbull rolled into Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre, he delivered what can only be defined as a massive party in spectacular fashion. Known as “Mr. Worldwide,” Pitbull transformed the venue into a high-energy celebration filled with hit songs, nonstop dancing, and an atmosphere that felt more like a massive nightclub than an outdoor concert. This was my first time seeing Pitbull. I had heard good things about his shows. But I was in no way prepared for the energy level of the fans, and all that was happening on stage
