As sunsets on the opening day of the Pima County Fair, dozens of fair goers take a spin on the Big Top Swinger, one of the carnival rides open for business, Thursday, April 16, 2015, Tucson, Ariz. Kelly Presnell / Arizona Daily Star

Fried food on sticks. Carnival rides. Live music from touring musicians. Farm animals galore. 

What's not to like about the Pima County Fair, running Thursday, April 20-Sunday, April 30 at the fairgrounds, 11300 S. Houghton Road?

One of our favorite parts of this annual odyssey of entertainment is the music.

Some examples:

On Thursday, T-Pain and Naughty By Nature will perform.  

Country singer Josh Turner will take the stage Saturday. 

And the Village People perform on Tuesday with hip-hop artist Lil Yachty next Thursday.
