Dude Perfect
July 30, 6 p.m.| Dickies Arena, Fort Worth
If you have a 12-year-old boy in your house, chances are very good that you’ve spent time watching Dude Perfect’s trick shots repeatedly, perhaps even gently reminding your child that they are YouTube millionaires with very good insurance and he is not. The Frisco-based quintet will undoubtedly wow the crowds with their live show too, which (according to the press release) will include a round of “Wheel Unfortunate” and “Cool Not Cool.” Get tickets
Steve Miller Band
July 30, 7 p.m.| Dos Equis Pavilion
True story: St. Mark’s School of Texas grad Steve Miller recorded his biggest hit, “The Joker,” in about two hours. ”It’s an odd tune,” he said. “I didn’t know if it was something I really liked when I was working on it.” Well, everyone else did and that song, along with other hits “Fly Like an Eagle,” “Take the Money and Run,” and “Swingtown,” got him to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He’ll release a boxed set in honor of the 50th anniversary of “The Joker” this fall. Get tickets
