About 38 Special
38 Special is an American rock band. Formed by Guitarist/Vocalist Don Barnes and vocalist Donnie Van Zant in 1974 in Jacksonville, Florida, the band initially had a straight-ahead Southern rock sound, much like Lynyrd Skynyrd, the band of Donnie's older brother Ronnie. By the early 1980s, the band began incorporating elements of blues-rock and arena rock into their sound, kicking off a string of successful albums and singles. Among 38 Special's best-known songs are "Caught Up in You" (1982) and "If I'd Been the One" (1983), both of which hit #1 on Billboard magazine's album rock chart, and "Second Chance" (1989), a #1 hit on Billboard's adult contemporary chart. Their other hit singles include "Hold On Loosely" (1981) and "Back Where You Belong" (1984). The band is comprised of guitarist/vocalist Don Barnes, guitarist Jerry Riggs, bassist Barry Dunaway, keyboardist Bobby Capps, and drummer Gary Moffatt.

Show was awesome. Seen the band 20 plus times. This concert was off the rails. Vocals and sound were on point. Sat closer to the front than usual. The band looked like they were having just as much fun as the audience. First time at this venue. Will definitely revisit for a different show in the near future.

It was amazing as always. Great venue to house that southern rock machine known as 38 Special. These guys deliver night after night. From the first note the crowd was on their feet singing along to the hits. And when the smoke had cleared and the last note played. The crowd was still standing and wanting more.

Great show, the boys can still rock and sound fantastic! Venue was a little weird though. No tiered seating, just rows of chairs in a ballroom. We were 5 rows from the stage so no biggie for us, but anyone sitting at the back would have been hard pressed to see much.

Awesome show, Don Barnes and the crew rocked the Beau Rivage in Biloxi for sure!!! We enjoyed every minute of the show and are looking forward to a return visit. The only way that it could have been better, would have been if Donnie VanZant was there. Five star plus show!!!

They put on an excellent show!!! Had a great time! My only issue is with the people that won't get up out of their seats, and dance, and enjoy it like we used to do in the 80's! C'mon people, we're never too old to enjoy some awesome music! 😎

Solid rock show, no frills, great playing! I was able to secure row and center seats which landed me some guitar picks and a candid photo with Jerry Riggs. The atmosphere was great, sound was good, and a choice selection for the setlist made for a great evening!

Chevalier Theatre - Medford 38 Special with Don Barnes and his crew never disappoint. They are true entertainers and you can tell they love to play to their audiences. All the 38 Special hits were covered as well as a few more surprises. Can’t wait to see them again.

Show was great, band was hot! Didn't realize the venue had obstructed views in the lower level higher priced seats. I would have picked different seats. .38 Special kicked butt for nearly 2 hours. Very rocking show! Wasn't thrilled with the seats.
