Conway, a city with a large population of young people thanks to its three colleges, has long struggled to provide its youthful residents with a permanent place for local, live music. Full Moon Records began in early 2021 as a series of humble pop-up shops around Central Arkansas, where owner Justin Dunn would temporarily set up shelves of records for people to flip through. Dunn hosted the first vendor market in May 2022. Sycamore, a local Conway band, asked to perform at the next one in June and it took off from there.

Hundreds of representatives are preparing to return to Washington on Wednesday after a nearly eight-week absence.

Republicans controlling the levers of power in Washington didn't escape blame, according to polls and some state and local elections that went poorly for them.

In a video that surfaced Tuesday night, Twitch streamer JankyRondo played a game of Madden NFL 26 on a livestream against a PlayStation user named imopen11 who was purportedly Brown, and asked him over in-game chat if everything was going well. Brown has appeared subdued when celebrating his first score, almost as if the entire ordeal has left him weary. The ongoing drama inspired some to wonder whether the Eagles might trade Brown at the deadline, but once it passed and Brown remained an Eagle, general manager Howie Roseman succinctly explained why he wouldn't send the three-time Pro Bowler elsewhere.

Billed as “The Great Melbourne Bagpipe Bash,” the eclectic performance took place in Melbourne’s Federation Square, on Swanston Street, which was the scene of the Australian hard rock band’s 1976 film clip in which they played the hit on the back of a flatbed truck traveling slowly through downtown traffic with music blaring from speakers. Having been declared world record holders, the massed pipers played “Happy Birthday” on request, followed by an impromptu “Amazing Grace” to a cheering crowd, many using their phones to record the moment.

The first Netflix House is not a house. It's a former Lord & Taylor department store at the King of Prussia Mall, outside Philadelphia, Pa. Inside, fans of the world's most popular streaming service can enjoy a mini-golf course, restaurants, a movie theater, and lots and lots of places to take selfies — like on a Bridgerton-style red velvet throne or an afghan-covered couch in a living room from Stranger Things.
