One of West Seattle's few live music venues, the Feedback Lounge, which rocked the Morgan Junction for the past seven years, said it's farewell on Saturday Aug. 8. According to Jeff Gilbert, the closure came due to "too many other distractions and things going on" for the group of people who served as co-proprietors. He was not at liberty to say what might happen in the space in the future.

The final night was a fitting rock n' roll party for the bar which featured craft cocktails and a unique menu. Gilbert, whose primary job is working for Live Nation, also lent his graphic design talents to the bar over its history to promote countless shows, and featured many of the pieces of rock memoribilia he collected over decades in association with the music industry.

Two rock bands, the Dead Letters and headliners the Black Bangs were chosen to close out the history of a bar that brought a lot of enjoyment to West Seattle.
