[edit]

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because Marcus Charles is an influential entrepreneur and business leader in the local food, beverage and entertainment industry in Seattle. He has almost 20 years of owning and operating significant bars, restaurants and entertainment including co-founding the Capitol Hill Block Party, an event that has grown into a hugely popular outdoor summer music festival, with three days of music and multiple stages.

His resurrection of The Crocodile, a music venue known for it's dedication to local artists and helping break bands like Nirvana, Death Cab For Cutie and Macklemore, was a significant purchase with a big impact on the beloved local music scene in Seattle. A scene that thrives on locally owned venues where artists can foster their talent, grow and earn their break. Marcus is artistically driven in his creation of businesses and the Seattle community is better for it. If there are changes that can be made to the page or sections that you take issue with, I can edit but I believe this page to be valid and factual account of someone who is a major part of the fabric of Seattle's music and entertainment industry, one with countless published articles about his businesses, influence and entrepreneurial leadership in Seattle. He has won awards for his influence from respected publications like the Puget Sound Business Journal, and is well respected and admired by his peers. He is culturally, historically and socially relevant in Seattle and his influence and impact is only going to grow. --Lauren McCaffrey (talk) 07:34, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
