RAT CITY ROCKS!

Keep Live Music Alive in White Center

White Center—Rat City—has always thrived
on music, creativity, and unapologetic energy.

Don’t let recent arrivals kill our tradition. If you can’t handle the music, you don’t belong here.

Why White Center?

Rat City is world-famous for its grit, diversity, and legendary live music. Generations of punks, rockers, and free spirits built this community. Our bars, venues, and unique noise are who we are.

What’s Happening?

Some newcomers, with zero respect for our scene, want to drag White Center into soulless suburbia. They call the cops, they protest, they want to turn our culture down to zero. Newsflash: you can’t buy culture, and you sure can’t kill it by complaining.

Don’t Let Outsiders Destroy Rat City’s Heart

Our venues, bands, and fans are the lifeblood of this place. White Center isn’t for the faint of heart. If you moved here for quiet, you moved to the wrong place. Trying to silence live music? You’re not welcome to change what makes us great.
