Preview: Arizona Fall Frenzy – Day 1 – Stone Temple Plots headlines a solid lineup
TEMPE-On September 17th, 18th, and 19th, Tempe Beach Park will host what is the strongest lineup for a local outdoor music festival fans have seen in recent years.

About Me
AZ Vibe is a Phoenix Area Entertainment site which is designed for people who live full-time in the Phoenix, AZ area and are looking for something fun to do in their free time. From what I’ve gathered so far the only thing that everyone knows that’s going on during their free time is going to the bars. That’s fun every once in a while but that gets old…quick. AZ Vibe is always on the lookout for really fun stuff to do that doesn’t always involve just going to the bars. This site is designed to be a guide for singles and couples between the ages of 20 and 40 to go out and find something cool and fun to do.
