Another super Saturday:

The LA Weekly-sponsored live music stage curated by Buzz Bands LA features Crash Kings [pictured], Dorothy, Mosco Rosco, SD3 (featuring Cary Brothers), the Singles and Run Things at Chinatown Central Plaza. Loads of family activities, a stellar lineup of food trucks and a craft beer garden from Eagle Rock Brewery also return for the annual celebration.
‣ If you’re over on the west side, then we suggest catching Kan Wakan perform the cinematic masterpieces from their debut “Moving On” at the Getty as part of  Saturdays Off the 405. Buzz Bands LA’s Seraphina L. will be DJing throghout the night.
‣ If you’re craving seafood and don’t mind trekking it down to Ports O’Call Village in San Pedro, then Lobsterfest is your spot today. They’ve got a live music stage featuring Berlin Featuring Terri Nunn, Sweet & Tender Hooligans, Jessica Childress, Taikoproject, Shana Halligan, Tapioca and the Flea, Irontom, Queen Caveat and Pretty Little Demons. Lobster meals are a steal and there are plenty of fair activities and rides for the family to enjoy too.
