WE SCENE IT >>>
A year ago Amocat Café owner Morgan Alexander set aside his espresso duties, home-brew batch and Tacoma street car crusade to come up with a plan to offer live music one a month in the upper room in his backward spelling coffee house in Tacoma's Triangle District.
Friday, his Amocat Live show celebrated its first anniversary to a full house.
"This town is loaded with talented musicians," says Alexander. "I'm so happy they drop by once a month to perform acoustic folk-rock, pop, bluegrass and country."
So happy is Alexander that he's pondering adding a second live music night each month.
"It's a shame each musicians can only play three to four songs during the night. They deserve more stage time."
Be on the lookout for Amocat Cafe's second birthday party in June.
