From reviewer Carson Fant:

It was rainy days that washed through Toad Suck Daze. Flash flooding in downtown Conway caused the cancellation of Saturday’s music lineup, including headline act Robert Randolph and the Family Band, and rainstorms muddied Sunday’s concerts. I heard the same joke a few times that Toad Suck Daze was living up to the second word in its name, but it was the weather that was bad, not the music.

On Friday night, the platinum-selling country act Little Big Town headlined the action. This was my introduction to the quartet’s music, and I was impressed with their harmonies.

The sound was great, but I had an obstructed view at the intimate Simon Park stage. But I could still hear the band fine as they played through their set list, which included the crowd-favorite “Boondocks,” “I’m With the Band,” and a slowed down version of “Wounded.” The group also played the Eagles’ hit “Heartache Tonight” for an encore.
