YOU CAN VOTE FOR BEST SOUTH BAY VENUES & MORE
The 28th annual "South Bay's Best" sponsored by the Daily Breeze newspaper lets you vote for places in their coverage region and performers you know who are based there.
The competing "Best of the Beach," determined by readers of the "Easy Reader News," has already published ITS choices for 2019. You can read THAT -- and get ideas for voting in these still "tbd" honors -- at:

Back to voting.
Voting in the Daily Breeze "South Bay's Best" runs NOW through Tuesday, April 30. Do prepare, because you must vote for a minimum of ten things for any of your votes to count. (We take you through some ideas and ways to approach it, below.)

After you verify your email address, you'll have your choice of several categories. Key among them, you can choose "Places" from the list of categories. On one track there, scroll down to "Night Spot/Live Entertainment." There, you might want to type-in "Grand Annex" or "Alvas Showroom" or one of the area's performing arts centers or a favorite haunt with fine tuneage.
Under the same category of "Places," you can also take another track and scroll down to "Performance Venues." There, think about places where you've enjoyed live music, musical theatre, stage plays, or whatever you're into. For example, you may want to type-in "Warner Grand Theatre," or "Torrance Performing Arts Center," or "Alvas Showroom," or any of many others you prefer.
Think broadly for both categories. "Night Spot/Live Entertainment" and "Performance Venues" can sometimes be played either way. Irish pubs with live music are easy to find in that region, so consider where you've enjoyed a pint and tuneage.
Eateries include places like Redondo Beach's Ragin Cajun, which presents live Cajun-zydeco and even an annual festival, and they do catering. (They won Easy Reader's "Best Cajun Restaurant" in "Best of the Beach.") And there's San Pedro's Whale & Ale restaurant, a longtime live music venue. Or maybe you'd rather vote for the latter in the "Night Spot/Live Entertainment" category.
Fans of Andy & Renee and their full band, Hard Rain (repeat winners of Easy Reader's "Best Local Band" in "Best of the Beach," and sponsors of the superb annual "Dylanfest" in Torrance, in the South Bay) may want to reward the places they perform with votes for "their" venues.
When voting for artists in these Daily Breeze honors, you'll need to click the "Write-in" tab, and vote in the "People" box. We just suggested one option, and you should remember that genuine blues legend Bernie Pearl lives in Long Beach, and blues/jazz vocalist and icon Barbara Morrison performs in her own theatre (and presents a spectrum of shows) in the South Bay.
The "Events" tab lets you type-in a festival in that part o' the whirled.
"Places" allowed us to type-in the Battleship Iowa in San Pedro, with its ever-better museum program and very dedicated volunteer crew. The Liberty Ship S.S. Jeremiah O'Brien, a museum that still puts to sea, also qualifies. So does the Pt. Fermin Lighthouse Park, or Ports O' Call Village. But you only get to name one.
Beyond that, you're on your own. But DO vote if you want to reward any venue or eatery where you've been treated well, and remember, you need to have the names on hand to type-in for at least ten items. The South Bay is rich in arts, and music venues, and artists -- and good eats -- and there are plenty that deserve new or continued recognition to keep on keepin' on!
