Photos of Kane Brown and Walker Hayes playing Tampa's Amalie Arena

The Tampa Bay Lightning have been forced to play back-to-back playoff games this week, and you can blame Kane Brown, whose May 21 show at Amalie Arena was on the books long before the Bolts drew the Florida Panthers for the team's second round Stanley Cup playoff matchup.
Maybe Brown—who played the 300-capacity Dallas Bull in 2016—should come around more often, too. Less than 24 hours after his gig, the Lightning pushed the Panthers to the brink of elimination with a 5-1 win that put Tampa Bay up 3-0.
Walker Hayes and Rae Lynn opened the show.
