You may have heard about it already, but it’s worth mentioning today. There is a venue in Seattle known as The Showbox that many artists are trying to save. In total there are 150 names, big and small, trying to keep this location around including the likes of Macklemore, Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie), and Mike McCready (Pearl Jam.

A developer is looking to take that location and put a huge tower in its place. Now, we certainly can’t let an iconic musical location go away because of that, can we?!

The names above and more have written to the Seattle Times urging for help from those that live in the area and to save this venue. The Seattle City Council is going to meet on this topic this week and then we will know more.
