Hard Rock Live in Hollywood has hosted some of the most memorable nights in South Florida's concert history. Kings of Leon on April 18 added another one to the list.
Kings of Leon played Hard Rock Live in Hollywood on April 18, and the Tennessee band delivered a 23-song set that moved confidently through their catalog — from the early Southern rock rawness of "Molly's Chambers" and "Taper Jean Girl" to the arena-sized anthems that made them one of the biggest rock bands of the 2000s. They opened with "Supersoaker" and moved through "Find Me," "On Call," "Manhattan," and "Revelry" before "The Bucket" and "Use Somebody" brought the first sustained crowd singalong of the night. "Waste a Moment," "Beautiful War," and "To Space" preceded a mid-set run of older material — "Mustang," "Molly's Chambers," "Razz" — that rewarded the longtime fans in the room. "My Party," "Arizona," "Pyro," "Back Down South," and "Seen" led into "Black Thumbnail" before the encore delivered "Rainbow Ball," "Closer," and the inevitable "Sex on Fire," which closed the night to the kind of full-room singalong that only a song of that magnitude can produce. A thorough, satisfying set from a band that has earned its place on any stage. For more upcoming events across South Florida, visit the Premier Guide Miami Events Calendar .

The PGM Edit
Hard Rock Live keeps delivering. Kings of Leon is the latest reason South Florida's concert calendar deserves to be taken seriously.

The Convergence: November in Miami
November is the month Miami stops pretending it is not the most interesting city in the country. The weather breaks. The calendar stacks. The polo ponies arrive on South Beach. Olivia Rodrigo plays two nights. Shakira closes the month at Kaseya. Miami Book Fair takes over Wolfson Campus. And Art Week is three weeks out — which means the reservation windows are already closing. Here is what we are watching.
On the Radar: November 2–8
GEMS closes out with Turturro and a Mike Leigh retrospective. The South Miami Art Festival takes over Sunset Drive. A 40-seat Syrian long table on Miami Beach is nearly full. GableStage opens Liberation. NASCAR Championship Weekend hits Homestead. And Tony Robbins takes over Kaseya for four days. This is the week the city shifts.
Inside the Room: Apotheke South Beach Opens With Three Nights of Celebration

The Best Place to Watch the NFL in Miami Is a Wine Bar on Coral Way
