A few concerts happening around Tampa Bay on this Thurs., April 16.
An Evening with Extreme The Boston quartet made a mark on the rock world that has lasted for the better part of two decades, if only via 1991 Billboard-topping acoustic ballad “More Than Words” and faster follow-up “Hole Hearted.” Extreme brings its special 25th anniversary performance of Extreme II: Pornograffiti to Clearwater, delivering the multi-platinum sophomore album that spawned both singles in its entirety followed by a greatest hits set.

Jarabe de Palo Formed in Barcelona in the early ‘90s, Jarabe de Palo (“wood syrup” in English) has been wooing international audiences with its easygoing, groove-riding brand of Spanish-language rock ‘n’ roll that takes pop and folk turns. The sextet is primed to build on its U.S. fanbase with this current tour behind 2014 eighth LP, Somos. (District 3, downtown Tampa) —LP
