Fourth of July weekend previews

This Fourth of July weekend is sure to be full of exciting events in Lawrence. This is just a few of the great shows scheduled for this weekend, for music lovers looking for a good time during the holiday.

Friday night Electric Theory will be playing with openers The Hunted, and Sobriquet. Electric Theory will be featuring a special guest: Billy Wassung of Sonic Sutra. Electric Theory is a local electronic group that plays fun, energetic, irresistibly rhythmic dance beats. The complex intricacies of this group are inspiring and always get the party started. Come to the Jackpot at 10 p.m. to check this show out. It's $5 for 21+ and $7 if you're under 21. This will definitely be a great time.

Saturday, Split Lip Rayfield will be playing an early show on the outside patio of the Replay Lounge, along with The Grisly Hand. This blend of bluegrass and soul will be going on from 6 to 9 p.m. for somewhere between $5-10.
Then, Ras Neville and the Kingstonians will be jamming at the Jazzhaus. You can enjoy some great live Reggae at an awesome, intimate venue, for just $4! That's crazy!

Sunday, if you're not too busy setting off small explosives while getting intoxicated, local rock band Fourth of July will be playing on the holiday that is their namesake at the Replay Lounge, for just $2. The self-described "most patriotic band in Lawrence" is a 5-piece outfit that has years of experience, naturally they should play a great show today of all days.

There is plenty of fun to have all weekend and beyond, so be safe you crazy kids!
