We Hardly Knew Ye: Crocodile Cafe

The Crocodile has sadly closed.

It seemed unusual when I drove by last Friday night, as the place was dark and empty. Now I know.

Among the bands I've seen there in its 16 years: the Detroit Cobras, the Dirtbombs, Girl Trouble, Mudhoney, the Young Fresh Fellows and the New Strychnines, a Sonics tribute supergroup starring members of Gas Huffer, Girl Trouble, Mudhoney and the Young Fresh Fellows.

Not that I was much help, since I rarely see live music anymore.
