Star Swim Fourth of July Bash feat. Miniature Tigers, Princeton, Dust Jacket, & DJ Ben Collins Wyndham Phoenix Hotel	Sat., July 4, 5:00pm-10:00pm	Central Phoenix	Indie Rock
Instead of spending the Fourth of July drinking Coronas and trying to find a house party, then showing up at a house party where a couple of other losers have wasted the day away drinking Coronas, you might consider rocking out to great bands and DJs at a poolside, rooftop party downtown....

Dixie Fried Concert & Car Show feat. Curse of the Pink Hearse, Dirty Dan & the Distributors, & more The Ruby Room	Sat., July 4, 8:00pm	Central Phoenix	Rockabilly
The gem of the Team America soundtrack, "America (Fuck Yeah)," rattles off a stunning litany of the things that make the United States great.

Fourth of July Bike 'n' BBQ Festival Green	Sat., July 4, 2:00pm	Tempe	Rock
Vegan chef extraordinaire Damon Brasch will be firing up his grill to cook up a mess of delicious (yet entirely animal product-free) hot dogs, burgers, and bratwursts for meatless types.

Happy IndepenDANCE Day Modified Arts	Sat., July 4	Central Phoenix	Rock
The folks at local label River Jones Music would prefer that you don't spend your fabulous fourth setting off fireworks or sucking down cheap-ass beer.

Harem Nights Red Sea Hookah Lounge	Sat., July 4, 11:00pm	Tempe	DJ
Make like the caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland by smoking some sweet shisha until the wee hours at this after-hours Tempe nightspot will DJs spin up smoking beats. Even better, pretend you're some debaucherous sultan and feast on chicken shawarma or other Mid-East treats while booful beauties... More >>

Ray Reeves' Rockin' Fourth Trunk Space	Sat., July 4, 7:00pm	Central Phoenix	Rock
Eclectic doesn't even begin to describe the diversity of acts that local audiophile/recording engineer Ray Reeves booked for this special event. There's the soulful vocalist/pianist duo Taraf Degrief, which performs traditional Jewish music, as well as cacophonous electronica outfit The Coitus,... More >>

Regicide, Violating Dead, Mordecai, Beyond Eternal Fate, & more Pennie Lee's (formerly Coyote Hill)	Sat., July 4, 7:00pm	Glendale	Hard Rock
Hard rock can be a very patriotic thing. Judas Priest helped establish new boundaries for the first amendment. Jimi Hendrix provided the most memorable rendition of "Star Spangled Banner" ever recorded. And there's no musician past or present who worships the dual altars of both the Bill of... More >>

Shake! Fourth of July The Rogue Bar	Sat., July 4, 9:00pm	South Scottsdale	DJ
William Fucking Reed has a habit of throwing holiday-themed dance nights (like Adios Motherfucker on New Year's Eve, for instance), and our country's birthday is no exception. The reigning hipster king of Saturday night will is bringing in L.A. electro-rock duo Acid Girls for the evening and his... More >>
