Several thousand people danced and sang as Southern rock band 38 Special played a Saturday night concert in Oak Ridge.

It was likely one of the largest crowds ever for a concert at the Secret City Festival, but organizers could not immediately estimate the crowd size.

The band played hits such as “Hold on Loosely” and “Rockin’ into the Night.”

The band’s Saturday night concert followed a Friday night show by A1A, a Jimmy Buffett tribute band.

A1A played Buffett hits such as “Margaritaville,” “Chesseburger in Paradise,” and “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes.”

Here are pictures from this weekend’s concerts.
