February brings a stacked slate of live music, theater, and sports — with enough variety to keep every night of the week interesting. From country legends and Broadway hits to high-flying basketball tricks and Shakespeare with a symphonic twist, Fort Worth’s venues are firing on all cylinders. Here’s a look at the can’t-miss events lighting up the city this month.

Bellamy Brothers
This will mark the country duo’s 70th trip to Billy Bob’s. We know they’ve done more than the 1975 chart-topper “Let Your Love Flow,” but that infectious tune, alone, is worth the price of admission.
