Crocodile Holiday Party

The holidays can be a slow time of year for venues that usually host touring bands—no one wants to spend Christmas on the road. Good cheer still needs to be spread somehow, though, so the Crocodile’s hosting a Yule soiree in their back bar this Christmas Eve Eve. Like any proper party, there’ll be food and drink—the bar’s happy hour (drink specials, two-for-one pizzas) will be extended all night—and music, with DJ sets by Crocodile staffers/little Santas Alicia “Miss L Toe” Amiri,” Eli “Festival of Lights” Anderson, and Meli “Tinsel Tits” Darby. Darby tells me the tunes will be “mostly party jams with some holiday gems sprinkled into the mix,” and that the purpose of the party is to loosen up and prepare for the days ahead, “because let’s face it, this time of year can be fucking stressful! So, let’s eat, drink and BE MERRY!” ERIN K. THOMPSON
