A show by Virginia tunesmith Phil Vassar, with his foot-stomping hits like "Carlene" and "Six-Pack Summer," would be enough to befit a proper shebang thrown by local country station 99.9 FM. KISS Country fans are in luck, however, because the ever-popular ten-gallon-hat-loving local radio station has flown in not one but five grand Nashville melody makers for the party. Joining Vassar at the "Stars and Guitars" show -- benefiting Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital -- on the Seminole Hotel & Casino Hard Rock Live's stage will be Lauren Alana, Thompson Square, Easton Corbin, and Lee Brice. Word is all five will take to the stage for one spectacular hooting and hollering jam session. This massive country hoedown happens Sunday at the Hard Rock Live, located at 1 Seminole Way in Hollywood. Tickets cost $22. Call 800-745-3000, or visit ticketmaster.com.
