Seattle, WA (PRWEB) December 13, 2006 -- Seattle's legendary Crocodile Café will host the George Harrison Jam at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday December 19th, 2006, five years after his passing. All ticket proceeds will go to Northwest Harvest to help feed Washington's hungry. Those attending are encouraged to bring canned food items for Northwest Harvest to distribute to needy families.
There will be a special guest performance by Alan White, legendary drummer for mega-band Yes and George Harrison's All Things Must Pass album. A specially assembled band of Seattle rock veterans, fronted by Rick Lovrovich of the Beatniks, will faithfully perform George Harrison's classic Beatles and solo music.

The same band headlined the John Lennon Jam on the 25th anniversary of his death (December 8th 2005) at the Crocodile Café -- also supporting Northwest Harvest. "Probably the best time playing music I've ever had!" said front man and bass player Rick Lovrovich. It was a full house, and due to popular demand, two encore performances were scheduled on September 1st, 2006, at Seattle Public Theater (sold out).
