INDEPENDENCE DAY LOWDOWN: 241 and Up

 

 

Countrypeople, greetings. America is 241 years young this day. Let us blow it up. 

Scroll your Lowdown listings below for specific details on Fourth of July festivities in Eureka, Arcata, Ferndale and SoHum. Of course the largest local fireworks display will be along Eureka’s Waterfront aaand it looks like the weather is going to cooperate with freedom-celebratin’ — no colored clouds! What a country.  

In the off-chance you’d rather spend your evening doing something other than staring at sky explosions, well, good news for you, comrade. A few venues had the foresight to book bands to satiate your subversive tendencies. Notable on the menu: The Miniplex hosts Quintron and Miss Pussycat which… you can attempt to comprehend by clicking the clip below. Now that’s what freedom looks like.
