\"liveafter5\"The Downtown Long Beach Associates (DLBA) announced today that the June edition of the monthly music series, Live After 5, will showcase mini-versions of the staple events that have made those hot downtown nights so boisterous during Long Beach\u2019s award-winning music festival, Summer and Music<\/a> (S.A.M.).<\/p>\n

On Thursday, June 11 from 5:00PM to 11:00PM, Live After 5 will transform Pine Ave. and the East Village into a twisted circus slash buskerfest slash silent film festival as a pre-party sampling of what\u2019s to come this summer, while Ave Zahner, formerly of Avi Buffalo, will perform solo for the first time since departing from the nationally renowned indie band.<\/p>\n

\u201cJune’s Live After 5 is going to be pretty epic in scope,\u201d said Joshua Fischel, DLBA\u2019s music curator for Live After 5, in a statement. \u201cTo honor a local music staple like S.A.M. is truly a dream come true. Even better? It\u2019s free\u2026 I honestly can\u2019t wait.\u201d<\/p>\n

So come enjoy free music, arts and Long Beach culture before S.A.M. takes over come June 27.<\/p>\n

The full schedule of the event is as follows:<\/p>\n

BUSKERFEST<\/strong>

5:45PM: The Andersons<\/p>\n
