Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Beer, barbecue and a gang of good friends are all you need to make the most of Independence Day. But while you might find all of that in your own backyard, there’s one thing that your boom box can’t compete with: live bands. Join the punk-rock picnic at Ziggy’s, where you can salute some of the Valley’s best acts — Greenhaven, Smoky Mountain Skullbusters, Pinky Tuscadero’s WKAF, Casket Life, Bullet Train to Moscow, Schlitzkrieg, and Big Vinny. Then later in the evening, you’re just a few blocks away from the big Tempe Town Lake fireworks display. It’ll be a blast.
