Here's how it works: Twenty-five musicians—guitarists and drummers, viola and trombone players—are asked to show up at the Crocodile at 10am Saturday. They're assigned, by lottery, to five new bands, which then go off and create three new songs to perform later that night. The magic to the madness is that these are some of Seattle's top artists from Cave Singers, Visqueen, 18 Individual Eyes, and more; we hear Kris Orlowski is also on the list. Proceeds from the evening support audio art nonprofit Jack Straw Productions.
