    Over on the Mane Stage, Niko Moon, Gabby Barrett and Old Dominion held it down until headliner Kane Brown’s turn. Fans were scattered across the venue in the evening, either checking out Brown’s set, trying to squeeze into the Diplo-curated Honky Tonk where his friend and fellow DJ Dillon Francis was performing, or they stood far outside the Palomino to catch a glimpse of Nelly doing songs like “Shake Ya Tail Feather” and “Hot in Herre.”
