Speaking of jazz: Anyone not going to see Amasa Hines or Merle Haggard tonight should come to the History Pavilion at Riverfront Park, where Dizzy 7 will be performing at the first night of this year’s Jazz in the Park series. The series will feature a free outdoor jazz performance every Wednesday from 6 to 8 p.m. Later on this month, the Johnny Burnette Band will perform on April 9, TwiceSax on April 16, That Arkansas Weather on April 23 and the Art Deco Trio on April 30.
