Celebrating America
Tribune File Art
For the Fourth of July in Warren, there will be Fins to the Left, the W.D. Packard Concert Band to the right and fireworks overhead. The Packard Band will do its annual holiday performance of patriotic music Saturday on the south lawn of Packard Music Hall, followed by a fireworks display. Those fireworks will be visible down the road at Warren Community Amphitheatre, where the Jimmy Buffett tribute band Fins to the Left will be playing beach music as part of the Summit Rock Showcase. Packard Band conductor Donald W. Byo said he wasn’t worried about the close competition affecting their attendance. ‘‘I would suspect there is a difference in the audience,’’ Byo said. ‘‘I know we’re going to wake them up with the fireworks.’’ Walt English, promoter of the Summit Rock Showcase, said holidays can be unpredictable for events like the concert series he stages. ‘‘It’s always worrisome when our day is on a holiday,’’ English said.
