When most think of March, the first thing to come to the mind is college basketball, spring flowers and the highlight of all college vacations, spring break.
With spring break right around the corner, college students everywhere are looking for things to occupy their minds. If you're a music lover and in the Mid-South area, March is heaven for those who love to attend concerts.
This month, the Mid-South will host an extravaganza of concerts. Oscar winner Jamie Foxx brings his "The Unpredictable Tour: A Night of Comedy and Music" to FedEx Forum on Thursday, March 15. Known for their unique style of music, the blue-faced trio known to all as The Blue Man Group will hit the Desoto Civic Center on March 16 as they bring "Blue Man Group: How to be a Megastar 2.0" to Mississippi.
The world is made up of all types of music and if punk rock is your choice of music then Nashville is the spot for you. Chart-toppers Flogging Molly will come to Nashville's City Hall on March 14.
While some are die-hard music fans, others would rather spend their time watching the big screen. For those born in the mid-eighties that know of the pizza-eating "heroes in a half shell," you are in luck. They will make their big screen return in the animated TMNT.
Picture Napoleon Dynamite, Talladega Nights, Anchorman and The Benchwarmers. Put them together and you get Blades of Glory where Will Ferrell and Jon Heder play two disgraced Olympic ice skaters who were banned from the sport because of drug usage but have found a way to sneak back into the competition.
Black Snake Moan, 300 and Wild Hogs are a few other movies that will hit theatres this month.
