Steve Albini will appear at The Second City That Never Sleeps: Letters to Santa, a 24-hour music and comedy benefit. It runs from 7pm Dec. 4 to 7pm Dec. 5 at The Second City ETC, 1608 N. Wells St., Chicago.
Proceeds will provide holiday gifts for underprivileged kids. Other performers will include Jeff Tweedy, Kim and Kelley Deal, Will Oldham, Robbie Fulks, and the comedians and monologuists of Second City.

Naturally I thought people in this forum might be interested. If Steve or one of his colleagues knows what time he's going to play, please post it. Thanks.

Also, I am not performing. I will be a sort of emcee or something.

So...the rumors of a duet of "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart" with Tweedy are categorically untrue?

Did someone say charity NLHE tourney?
How about this one tomorrow night? ...with other local boldface names, if not Albini.
