Yucaipa Music & Nightlife: July 4-10

Here's what's up for the Independence Day weekend - lots of music and explosions! I suppose this isn't very loyal to Yucaipa, but there are a number of free music options tomorrow if you are willing to drive a few towns over:

• Moreno Valley (Morrison Park/Mountain View Middle School, Dracaea Avenue and Morrison Street, details): Eddie Money and Dooh Wah Riders are playing at the annual Family Funfest, 7:30-9 p.m., concluding with a "Fireworks Extravaganza" at 9 p.m. Free!
  
• Beaumont (Stewart Park; 9th and Orange, flier): The Basix (80s & 90s) 5pm-7pm, Christopher Cross 7pm-9pm, concluding with "Pyrospectacular". Free! (and now I have "Sailing" in my head)
• Redlands (Sylvan Park, University St, details): Picnic begins at 10am, Classic Alibi (classic rock) 11am, Redlands Fourth of July Band, noon. "Happy Birthday America" parade beginning at 4pm. That part's free. Evening festivities are in the University of Redlands Ted Runner Stadium beginning at 7pm, with live music from the Redlands Fourth of July Band and Elvis, Cher and Rod Stewart impersonators. The finale is a Pyro Spectacular firework show. Tickets for the evening show are $7 in advance, $10 at the gate. You can buy tickets at Sylvan Park until 2:30pm.
  

Remember all personal fireworks are illegal here in Yucaipa, so be safe and let the professionals create the explosions.
