It's hard to put together a lineup as great as Cher and Chic with Nile Rodgers, so you'll probably want to be at the BB&T Center this Saturday night to experience the spectacle. And if you're in the mood for more #tbt hits, Rick Springfield will hit the Seminole Casino Coconut Creek on Friday night with new songs and fan favorites. Finally, witness songwriting royalty in the flesh when Arlo Guthrie plays Parker Playhouse.
