Hello friends,We found out the beloved Crocodile Cafe in Seattle is now closed.We were just on our way to play there in February. For us to headline there was a personal dream of mine and we were only 3 months away. Living in Seattle, I saw many shows there and held it in my heart ever since.I think i saw some history there back in the day, and it was a shared feeling.It hit me hard because in NYC we lost CBGB’s recently too.So Seattle we feel you…its a damn shame. For young upstarts in like myself the Crocodile was THE place, I think like it was a right of passage to roll up with rock and roll dreams in my eyes and ask “Hey are you guys hiring?”…Jeez it coulda been so cool, but i never got a call…..shit i woulda done dishes, mopped floors, whatever…..just being in that place made me feel good.I met so many of my heroes there. Well, So long to the “Croc” you will be missed.I’m proud to have shared some amazing times with you.Your fan,Billy McCarthy
