Sequel Dose at Branson Landing

At first glance, this might seem like a stretch for a spotlight, what with a bunch of good shows in Springfield—but it’s really not. Sequel Dose’s Branson Landing shows are fan-freaking-tastic… the band’s energy and lead singer Tim Broadbent’s near-manic persona turn BL’s Town Square into an honest to God concert venue, at least for a couple of hours. Add to a ton of fire-feature flare-ups (which will piss off Al Gore, but is fine with us) and you’ve got one of the better free shows of the summer.
