GOP senator invites Trump to 'an appreciation event like you've never seen' in deep-red state
FIRST ON FOX: Every year, the small town of Sturgis, South Dakota, explodes from just a few thousand residents to hundreds of thousands of people making the pilgrimage to the Buffalo Chip campground. There, they participate in the nation's largest motorcycle rally, where camaraderie, motor oil and rock and roll permeate the dusty campground. And one Republican senator wants President Donald Trump to be the headlining guest. Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., extended an invitation exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital to the president to attend his home state's Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Rounds left the door open for Trump to either come to the rally's 85th anniversary this year, or to celebrate America's 250th anniversary next year. "South Dakota is Trump Country," Rounds said. "We'd love to introduce you on stage during one of our premier concerts, in front of tens of thousands of fans, and we're thoroughly convinced you'll be impressed with the reception." "This year, the event is our 85th Anniversary — which will draw rally-goers from every corner of the country and throughout the world," he continued. "Next year, the 250th anniversary of our country will also be a blow-out event. We'd be honored to host you whenever it may work in your schedule." To Rounds' point, South Dakota is indeed "Trump Country." The president has won the state each cycle that he has run, averaging a roughly 30-point victory margin over his opponents. This year's rally will take place from Aug. 1 to Aug. 10 and will feature a number of artists, including ZZ Top, Jason Aldean, Jefferson Starship, Nickleback and others. "We're biased, but it's an experience every red-blooded American should witness, or better yet, participate in," Rounds said. "Thank you for leading our great country. We'd love to honor you with an appreciation event like you've never seen," he continued. Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment.

Concerts to see this week: The Weeknd, ZZ Top, Pryes Block Party
Concerts to see this week: The Weeknd, ZZ Top, Pryes Block Party originally appeared on Bring Me The News. It may go underappreciated just how many opportunities there are to take in free concerts around the Twin Cities this summer. I don't have any nice stats about how the region compares to other cities, but it's nonetheless impressive. It's not just the quantity of free shows. There's quality there, too. The below listings don't have everything that's happening, but scanning the list, there's Minneapolis' music in the park series, shows on venue patios, the Stone Arch Bridge Festival, the Pryes Block Party (more on that shortly), and outdoor series in Rochester and Edina. Music lovers could almost certainly see live music every day of the summer without paying an admission fee. (Though, there are good reasons to pay a cover. We don't get the quality part of the equation if musicians can't make a living, and, as a study revealed last year, musicians in Minnesota are underpaid.) Whether you're grabbing a blanket and heading to a show in the park or shelling out for pricey tickets at U.S. Bank Stadium, here are some of the best shows you can catch around the Twin Cities this week. Monday, June 9, at The Fillmore For the first time in more than decade, Bloc Party is coming to the Twin Cities, and it'll feel like a throwback in more ways than one. The English group will be going back to the beginning, playing its debut, Silent Alarm, in its entirety. When the show was initially announced, Metric was lined up to play its 2009 record, Fantasies. They've since dropped off the tour, and the show moved from The Armory to The Fillmore. However, fans probably aren't going to complain about getting a more intimate show. Blonde Redhead and Family Dinner open. Wednesday, June 11–Saturday, June 14, at Wagon Wheel Ridge in Karlstad This isn't in the Twin Cities. It's not even close. But the Minnesota music festival draws big names in country music to northern Minnesota, making it a destination fest for many fans. This year's headliners include veterans Little Big Town, Grammy-nominated songwriter Tyler Childers, the Eli Young Band, Chayce Beckham, Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley, and others. Meanwhile, in St. Paul, Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals will headline the Palace Theatre on June 12, at Ledge Amphitheater Waite Park will be home to a night of classic riffs as ZZ Top alights at The Ledge with a repertoire of songs you remember from KQRS, or, at least, from KQRS before that recent change. The Texas blues rock trio, now more than half a century deep into its career, will bring guitars, "La Grange," and swinging beards to venue that's a bit of a hot spot for splashy shows this summer. The group, which will have The Wallflowers opening, have carried on touring after the 2021 death of bassist Dusty Hill. Founding members Billy Gibbons and Frank Beard are now joined by the band's long-time guitar tech, Elwood Francis, on bass. After ZZ Top gets the week going, the Ledge will stay busy. Chicago hits the stage on Friday. On Sunday, "One Week" hitmakers the Barenaked Ladies arrive with fellow '90s radio rock groups Guster and Fastball. For those not ready to head to the suburbs, long-running Johnny Cash tribute group The Church of Cash will headline the Dakota. In St. Paul, Lowertown Sounds launches its summer series of free concerts at Mears park with a lineup that features the Flamin' Oh's and Faith Boblett. Saturday, June 14, at U.S. Bank Stadium The Weeknd is accompanying his new album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, with a tour that brings him to the Twin Cities for the first time since 2017. He's promised that the show includes a 'never-before-seen production' and a setlist focused on the album trilogy that wrapped up with this new album and a film of the same name. Playboi Carter and Mike Dean open. Saturday, June 14, at Pryes Brewing Pryes Brewing's 8th annual block party is free and packed with exciting local artists. This year's installment is headlined by the high-energy indie rock of Kiss the Tiger. Imbibers will also be treated to Chicago-based Americana songwriter Nathan Graham, Mary Bue, Of the Orchard, The Shackletons, The Roe Family Singers, and Fiddle and Flannels. It's a nice mix of indie rock and roots-infused locals.

‘Stick' Soundtrack: All The Songs You'll Hear In The Apple TV+ Golf Series
Stick tells the story of optimistic ex-professional golfer Pryce Cahill (Owen Wilson), who might be good friends with one Ted Lasso if they ever overlapped in their sports worlds. Hailing from creator Jason Keller, the Apple TV+ series premiered early June with the first three episodes, watching Pryce reluctantly let his ex-wife Amber Linn (Judy Greer) sell their former house before he decides to bet on teen Santiago Wheeler, who has the swing of a golf pro, and take him to the big leagues along with his former caddy and friend Mitts (Marc Maron) and Santi's mother Elena (Mariana Treviño).
