Rod Wave Is Giving Away Free Gas In St. Petersburg
According to Rod Waves Manager’s official Instagram, the gas giveaway will be happening this Friday at a Sunoco in St. Petersburg. The address is 5100 34th Street South. The giveaway will kick off at noon sharp. If you’re wondering if he’s going to be there, he was last year!
Everything is so expensive and if you’re in need, make sure you come out! Receiving free gas is a great late Christmas present. We love Rod Wave for doing this and it shows why so many others love him across the world as well.
I Had A Chance To Meet Rod Wave This Year
Sometimes you love a celebrity before you meet them based on their music, personality, etc. Sadly when you do meet them they are different, That was not the case with Rod Wave! He was super nice in person and very humble.
You can tell he has an old soul and is very in tune with his spirituality! Great energy and I hope he liked the birthday gift I got him. One of his favorite artists is Adele, so I got him an Adele vinyl record. I wonder if he listened to it yet? lol
I’m saying all this to say, that if you have a chance to meet him this Friday at the gas giveaway, you won’t be disappointed! If you’re a fan, you will be even a bigger fan after. I hope you’ve had a great holiday season and enjoyed time with your loved ones!

The Best Hip-Hop Tampa Concerts of 2023
2023 was an iconic year for concerts. So many great tours took place this year and many of them came to Florida and the Tampa area. We’re reminiscing about the best concerts of 2023.
Pollstar recently released the top-grossing tours of 2023. And it’s no surprise that Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour took the top-grossing spot. Taylor’s 60 stadiums tour set a record and is the first tour ever to cross the 10-digit threshold. Whether you’re a fan or not, that’s pretty impressive. Her 3 days in Tampa brought a lot of economic good to the area with so many people visiting from other cities/states. The second top-grossing tour of 2023 is Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour. For the first time in 15 years, two women, including a woman of color, had the year’s top grosses. The third top-grossing tour of 2023 was Bruce Springsteen’s “Springsteen and E Street Band 2023 Tour, which made a stop in Tampa on February 1st, 2023.
There were some great tours that we would love to include on our list but didn’t get a chance to check out. Drake looked like he put on an awesome show, but only came to Miami this year. Thankfully, he’ll be at Amalie Arena for TWO nights in 2024 with J.Cole!
Concerts in Tampa in 2024
2024 is going to be a BIG year for concerts. As we said, we are already looking forward to TWO nights of Drake and J.Cole. We can also look forward to some more shows being announced early in the year for summer. Live Nation usually released the lineup for the summer concert lawn pass early in the year. If you can make the drive, Nicki Minaj is finally back on tour and playing at Amway Center in March. Click here to learn more.
Honorary mentions
It was tough to narrow down our top 5 favorite tours when so many awesome acts came to Tampa this year. Ludacris recently put on an awesome show in St. Pete. 50 Cent and Busta Rhymes had a lit show at the Amphitheatre that took us BACK to our earlier roots. Lil Baby also brought his IOU Tour to Amalie and it was vibe.
Here are our top 5 favorite concerts of 2023… What are yours?
