16 OUR YUCAIPA | NOVEMBER 2015
By Natalie Palmer
Local hair metal 80's tribute band Stay Tuned will perform
their annual concert to benefit Yucaipa High School's Best Buddies
program on Saturday, Nov. 14 in the school's multipurpose room.
Best Buddies is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to
establishing a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities
for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment and leadership
development for people with intellectual and developmental
disabilities.
The show starts at 5:15 pm and will be just $5 at the door. All
proceeds benefit the Best Buddies program.
The band is reaching out to the community for funds for much
needed updated production equipment for the show.

Each year the band hosts a special surprise guest that jams with
the band on stage. Last year's group was popular 80's hard rock band
Great White. Another legendary hard rock band is tentatively on the
line up for this years show.
Stay Tuned is made of Thomas Stibblie, lead vocals; Jacob Stibbie,
lead guitar; James Jenkins, bass guitar; and Lukas Valencia, drums.
"Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'Cause it's always been the same old scene.
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine…
Aimed at your average teen."
~ Billy Joel, "It's Still Rock And Roll To Me"
