Two legendary rock bands coming to The Mill this summer
Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) rose to fame with hits like 'Takin' Care of Business' and 'You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet.'
BTO's sound is a distinct blend of hard rock and classic pop, remaining as vibrant and electrifying as it did when Randy Bachman and Fred Turner formed the band in the early 1970s.
Joining BTO on July 25 will be one of the pioneering forces in Southern rock, The Marshall Tucker Band. The Marshall Tucker Band is known for hits like 'Can't You See' and 'Heard It in a Love Song.' Their music has been described as a fusion of rock, country, jazz and blues.
Tickets will go on sale February 28th at 10 a.m., and ticket prices are $85 for VIP Standing Pit, $60 for VIP and $35 for GA.

Bama Rush star steps back from recruitment that coach called ‘psychological warfare'
University of Alabama senior and Zeta Tau Alpha member Kylan Darnell has announced she is taking a 'step back' from recruitment and from posting about the sorority rush craze sweeping college campuses. Darnell, the reigning Miss Ohio Teen USA, has spent the past three years sharing an inside look at sorority life, becoming one of the most recognizable faces in the 'Bama Rush' phenomenon that has captivated college campuses and social media users alike. Advertisement But this year, she says, will be different. 'I just wanted to come on here because I am somebody that has painted my whole college life, my whole sorority life online,' Darnell said in a TikTok video. 'There's been good and bad. But today, I'm not all dressed up for recruitment. I've personally decided to take a mental health day for the next three days.' Raised in Ohio, far from the deep-rooted Southern sorority traditions, Darnell admitted she arrived at the University of Alabama with little understanding of rush. 'I had no idea my life would turn into what it has,' she said. 'I didn't know you weren't supposed to post on social media. I didn't know it was frowned upon. I had no idea about the backlash, or the positivity, that would come with it.' Advertisement Brandis Bradley, a sorority coach, referred to the recruitment process as 'psychological warfare' in an interview with PEOPLE. 4 Kylan Darnell attended Miami Swim Week 2025 on May 31, 2025. GC Images 'It's emotional boot camp,' Bradley told the outlet. 'And their frontal lobes aren't even fully developed.' Darnell's introduction to Greek life came when her mother took her to Sorority Row before freshman year. 'I was hooked,' she recalled, despite initial hesitation from her parents. Advertisement With no friends and no knowledge of the houses, she threw herself into rush with fresh eyes. 4 'Bama Rush' is the competitive sorority recruitment process at the University of Alabama. AP On the first day of recruitment, Darnell filmed a short TikTok explaining the process to her family's group chat. That casual clip went viral before she'd even finished orientation, catapulting her into influencer status. Since then, she's garnered 1.2M faithful followers and 82.7 million likes, sharing everything from philanthropy events to sisterhood activities. Advertisement While she described the journey as 'fun' and 'something I wouldn't trade,' Darnell said it hasn't been easy. 'It's also been really hard to navigate college while being under a microscope,' Darnell previously told Fox News Digital. 'People forget that we're real people.' 4 Darnell, a Zeta Tau Alpha member at the University of Alabama, became a breakout star during 2022's viral 'Bama Rush' TikTok phenomenon. Kylan_Darnell/TikTok The scrutiny has intensified over time, she said, and this year's rush feels 'a lot worse' and 'more amped up.' She asked followers not to tag her in posts about other girls, saying it only fuels unnecessary drama. 'I put myself in a position to be talked about online, but please… just don't involve me in other girls' posts,' she urged. Darnell said her decision to step back isn't about discouraging others from rushing; in fact, she still supports it, but wants to protect her own well-being.

Advertisement 'There was a point in my life that my personality was sorority, but I've grown, and it's not really like that anymore.' Darnell said her decision to 'take a couple steps back' is to protect her own peace. 4 Darnell was the former Miss Ohio Teen USA. kylan_darnell/TikTok 'I personally feel that if I was to post this year and to promote it (rush), then I would be doing those girls an injustice,' Darnell explained. Advertisement 'Now I'm not saying don't rush. I loved it. But I'm just saying that I'm in a mental health spot where I've been struggling. I can't go online this year and I won't lie to you guys about it. I've just not been enjoying it. I've not been having fun.' Support poured in from followers, with one commenter praising her 'integrity at such a young age' and another writing, 'Always choose you and what's best for you. Your TikTok fam has your back!' Darnell said while she is still an active member of her sorority, she will take the next three days off from posting online and helping with recruitment to help her little sister with rush and enjoy time with her family. Advertisement 'My family's here, my friends are here and I'm gonna help my little sister go through recruitment because I can already tell it's gonna be really hard for her. That is why I'm not participating this morning. I just need a break because I can't lie to myself anymore this week because I'm really struggling with it. Anyway, I love you all.' Bid Day for thousands of Alabama sorority hopefuls is set for August 17, but this year, Darnell will be watching from the sidelines, prioritizing peace over performance.

The Crowd: Seymour Beek keeps the party going at fundraising event for Balboa Island Museum
What's more fun than a mid-week summer movie night at the historic Lido Theatre in Newport? Some 400 revelers invited by the Balboa Island Museum converged on a recent Wednesday evening to support a fundraising showing of the documentary film titled 'Newport and Me: Seymour Beek.' The crowd was greeted by theater manager Ines Gandal and her congenial staff joining Balboa Island Museum Executive Director Tiffany Pepys Hoey and her equally exceptional staff, as the overflow of movie lovers arrived en masse, creating a buzz near the front doors of the movie house. Despite the fact everyone seemed to arrive at the same time, it was no problem. Restaurateur Dave Ursini of Naples Rib Company and his crew were at the ready set up on the al fresco patio adjacent to the Lido, with the perfect summer Newport menu. Museum staff served wine, and the crowd sampled grilled chicken skewers, barbecued sausages, sliders of every variety, grilled veggies, egg rolls, Southern barbecue chopped salad and more. Balboa Island Museum's chief executive, Shirley Pepys, was front and center in the crowd with Matt Leonetti greeting VIP guests that included museum board president John Conners with his wife, Diana; celeb restaurateur Cynthia Shafer of Royal Hen; media boss Dennis Bress, chief executive of IEEI; tech expert Clint Burns, Nextup's chief executive; Newport Beach City Councilmember Robyn Grant and Keith Curry, a former Newport Beach mayor. Also there were additional museum board members Renee Pepys Lowe, Paula Castanon, Sue Sibley and JoEllen Heck, to name a few. When the last sliders on Hawaiian rolls left the buffet table, a 6 p.m. chime beckoned all into the theater with a quick stop at the concession bar for buttered popcorn. The documentary on the life of Seymour Beek and his family, creators of the Balboa Island Ferry, includes a look at many other aspects of Newport life over some 100 plus years was produced and directed by Celeste Dennerline and Ed Olen in association with Balboa Island Museum. It was shown to crowds at the 2024 Newport Beach Film Festival. Most of the burgundy plush seats in the Lido were soon filled, including the balcony (where the cool people ventured), the lights dimmed following a brief welcome from John Conners, then the documentary filled the big screen. The audience was enjoying the film's journey into the past when the unthinkable happened. About three-quarters of the way into the film, the movie stopped and lights went up in the theater. The crowd thought it was intermission, so some were off to the restrooms or to refill the popcorn and get another Coke. It turned out a computer glitch in the film shut down the projection. To keep the event rolling, Seymour Beek himself stood up in his seat, introduced himself and took questions from the audience, giving a hint of what was in the remaining parts of the documentary. One boy asked Beek if he had a pet. Not missing a beat, the 92-year-old subject of the film quipped, 'No, I don't have a pet, but I have a girlfriend.' Indeed, his girlfriend, Bobbie Daniels, was seated with him. The crowd clapped and roared. Some of the other guests seen in the audience that night were Alison and Kimo McCormick, Sharon and Gary Grimes, Sharon and Jamie McKennon, Ellen Goodman, Gigi Spragins, Kate and Wayne Heck, Anne and John Wortmann, the latter of whom said, 'I learned things I never knew about the history of the harbor, can't wait to see the rest of the movie.' Balboa Island Museum is planning a series of additional shows to be held in the museum in the coming months for people who want to see the end of the documentary. Dates to be determined and announced. So, that's the story for one Wednesday night this summer in Newport Beach. To learn more about Balboa Island Museum, visit
