Minnesota Yacht Club Festival to announce 2025 lineup on Tuesday
The lineup for the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival in St. Paul will be announced on Tuesday.
This year's festival will be held July 18-20 at Harriet Island Regional Park, increasing to three days of music after debuting last year with two.
The inaugural festival proved a huge hit, attracting big numbers to the park across the Wabasha Street Bridge from downtown St. Paul.
Last year's event was headlined by Gwen Stefani, Alanis Morissette, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, with other major performers including The Offspring, Gary Clark, Jr., Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, The Hold Steady, and The Head and the Heart.
The Black Crowes were also scheduled to perform but canceled the day before their appearance due to illness.
In the wake of the festival, organizer C3 Presents announced it would return in 2025 with an extra day. The only real complaint from attendees last year was long lines for beer and food, with the feedback otherwise positive.

John Wilkes Booth takes center stage in ‘Mad Men' creator's new play
(NewsNation) — 'Mad Men' creator Matthew Weiner's directorial play debut puts one of America's most notorious killers in the spotlight. 'John Wilkes Booth: One Night Only,' brought to life with the help of producer Ken-Matt Martin, centers on the man who shot and killed President Abraham Lincoln. Former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist takes plea deal in fatal crash: report 'We learn a lot from studying our villains,' Weiner told NewsNation. 'And the thing that really got to me is how much we live in the shadow of his act.' Examining infamous figures 'tells us more about who we are as a country than it does just looking at our heroes,' Martin said. Booth, a Baltimore native, was 26 at the time of Lincoln's assassination. When asked about the parallels between Booth and Luigi Mangione — who is accused of killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson — Martin and Weiner emphasized the importance of interrogating violence's place in American history. Mangione is also from Maryland and was 26 years old when Thompson was killed. 'The thing that I think is at the core of why it's important for us to be producing and looking at, it's not to glorify, but it's actually to better understand and contextualize why people do the things that they do,' Martin said. Chrisleys set to make TV comeback after Trump pardons Weiner echoed that sentiment. 'America is proud of its anti-authority nature,' he said.' But the reality is most of the changes that have happened in this country eventually come into the hands of violence. It is part of, unfortunately, the way this country was born, and it's part of our mythology.' 'This is a challenging thought to open your mind to,' Weiner continued. 'The idea that there is something particular to America that produces people like this, and that we live in their destruction, and that we need to understand them so that we can move beyond this.' The play will run from May 15 to June 15 at Baltimore Center Stage. It is recommended for audiences 14 and older. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist receives probation for fatal crash that killed pedestrian
The former guitarist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers will not serve jail time for a 2024 vehicle crash that killed a man walking in an crosswalk in Alhambra, California. Josh Klinghoffer, 45, pleaded no contest to misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence in Alhambra court on Wednesday and was sentenced to one year of informal probation and 60 days of community labor. He also received 12 months probation, as well as a required driver safety class and court-ordered restitution. Alhambra is located just west of Los Angeles. A lawsuit filed by the family of 47-year-old Israel Sanchez accuses Klinghoffer of distracted driving when Sanchez was killed. Video released by attorneys representing the victim's family shows the March 18, 2024, crash in which the driver gets out of the vehicle and stays with the victim before police arrive. The lawsuit does not accuse Klinghoffer of hit-and-run, as the video clearly shows a driver tending to the person hit, but alleges that Klinghoffer was not paying attention while driving. An attorney for Klinghoffer called it a "tragic accident" and said he fully cooperated with investigators. "This was a tragic accident," attorney Andrew Brettler said in an earlier statement. "After the car struck the pedestrian, Josh immediately pulled over, stopped the vehicle, called 911, and waited until police and the ambulance arrived." According to the lawsuit, Klinghoffer was driving a black 2022 GMC Yukon with no license plates. A still captured from the video moments before the crash shows the driver on a cellphone or some other device, the lawsuit alleges. The lawsuit states "He (Sanchez) stopped at the corner and made sure the oncoming traffic had cleared and his path was safe … (he) took eight full strides within the marked crosswalk" just before being struck and killed. Sanchez suffered blunt force trauma and died from his injuries a little less than three hours later at the hospital. The lawsuit seeks an unspecified amount in damages. Klinghoffer played guitar with the Red Hot Chili Peppers from 2009 to 2019, and has also played with Pearl Jam and Jane's Addiction.
