Subject: RE: Whats the origins of the name Mudcat
I got it wrong. Here's the post and the thread...
Yes, a mudcat is a catfish. The story goes that me and some friends made a habit of jammin in one of the guys basements. He had a sound system that made it sound just like it would in a bar. One day, for no real reason, I started the jam with "Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Mudcat Cafe!", and it soon became tradition to begin every jam that way. It's a dream of mine to own an actual establishment called The Mudcat Cafe... and start every night that way.
