http://www.alexsbar.com The dim red lights and walls covered from top to bottom with framed portraits of bull fighters and luchadores manages to make Alex's Bar bizarrely lovable. This Long Beach favorite comes equipped with a full bar, pool table, and insanely amusing bathroom wall murals for your enjoyment. Not only does this venue host a slew of talented up-and-coming local musicians on a weekly basis, but it is also used as the set for filming the Fangtasia bar scenes in HBO's True Blood series. Cozy and kitschy with friendly bar service, this place will have your spirits high enough to consider shelling out three bucks to make memories in the custom photo booth hiding at the corner of the bar.

http://www.amoeba.com The hangar-size emporium, the sister store to two locations in the Bay Area, has an awe-inspiring selection of music, DVDs and posters and is also the site of free in-store concerts. Solomon Burke, the Flaming Lips, Patti Smith, Paul Westerberg, Neko Case, PJ Harvey, the Raconteurs, Ceci Bastida and Paul McCartney are among the many performers who've played on Amoeba's small stage. The store rests above an underground parking lot, and there's more parking in a small lot just down the block. More >>

http://www.myspace.com/theavalonbar A dive bar in all respects, Avalon Bar manages to fit a little classiness into its hole-in-the-wall proportions. Those of you familiar with this local dive already know at least two major details: 1. Contrary to what the kitschy, light bulb-lined arrow pointing down at the bar's entrance may lead you to believe, this place is no disco. 2. This establishment doesn't serve hard liquor, so you can leave any hope of a vodka and Red Bull at the door. That said, the less-than-dim lighting, hanging lanterns, and beautifully back-lit bar make this place awesome for intimate meetings and the occasional live show. More >>

http://www.sharkeez.net This corny but fun "cantina" chain turns out some surprisingly good food at low prices. The loud, festive atmosphere will reminds you of the spring-break trip south of the border you barely remember (or wish you had taken). You can watch some football while scarfing some nachos with your friends, or swing by for the Wednesday-night 99-cent burger-and-beer special. It's a broke wino's dream. More >>

http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Beach-Girls/107157352688412 Located in a strip mall off Interstate 405 next to a Super 8 Motel, Beach
Girls is one of the more lively bikini bars in Orange County. The scantily
clad women wandering the room make small talk when they aren't busy pouring shots or dancing behind the bar as they greet patrons. Beach Girls offers a full liquor selection, a dozen beers on tap and a handful of bottled brews. Added entertainment includes a jukebox, flat-screen TVs surrounding the room, a dartboard and two arcade games. More >>
