I attended the 24 Hr Second City: Letters to Santa Benefit Tue/Wed.

Jeff Tweedy performed and auctioned off a concert where he would come and perform at your house for you and your friends...it ended up in a three way tie with 3 people obviously representing a collective of obsessed Wilco fans, he agreed to do all three for $17,500 each. $52,500 to charity just like that.
Later Steve Albini and Shellac performed and auctioned off a day of studio time w/ Albini, I not sure how much that went for.
In between was some pretty inspired improv and everyone seemed to have a good time for a good cause.
I suppose I should join the "Best Of List" fray on my next post, Cbro shall I go first?

You are the sexiest post person on the planet. Loved the list of best selling artists of alltime. The fact that PJ has outsold N'sync and Micheal Bolton gives me hope. But not all is good in Whoville -- Creed has outsold the Police. I must weep now.
In the video Eddie kicks Bonos ass.
I will have a two week "countdown" of Next singles starting after Christmas. Look for my top albums list sometime soon. If your list is ready please post away. It will try awhile fro me to tweak mine.
