Cake Shop will rock on

Some good news here for fans of Cake Shop... and live music venues... You probably read back in late April that the Ludlow Street cafe-bakery-bar-club was in some financial difficulties ... Anyway, Gothamist reported that the Cake Shop's crowdsourcing fundraiser, which ended today, was a success... As Gothamist noted, "Cake Shop had help from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Surfer Blood, who both played secret shows in support."
