Come out to our first event of the year in NYC! Enjoy some much-needed Cuddle Magic, check out Shark?, and get excited for the new album from The Morning Benders.
Best of all, bring your used CDs to swap and donate to Housing Works. That’s right, dig into those shoe boxes under your bed, go into your storage cube, and bring out all those CDs you don’t play anymore, but just couldn’t bear to let go. Ramones anthologies, Slanted and Enchanted, P-Funk compilations, everything you’ve got. We’ll all browse the stacks, evaluate our friends’ taste in music, and realize that yeah, I really should own this album. It’ll be like clicking on someone’s Hype Machine profile and picking up recommendations, except these songs come with artwork.
A ticket for 1 free CD is included with your admission. All proceeds from the show, as well as the unswapped CDs, will be donated to Housing Works’s fight to end homelessness and AIDS.
I assume this is in NY?

I wish I had been in NYC to go to this, but I left 6 days before. Housing Works is an awesome place though. So awesome they have a volunteer list months deep and so you have to get on a waiting list when you want to volunteer for the first time.

Wow, I guess I was writing in past tense because it is so late. I’m going to be leaving NYC 6 days before the event. Have fun everyone that can go!
February 18, 2010 @ 3:27 am
I vote for San Francisco as well! I volunteer.

can I get in without a cd if I don’t take any cds? I don’t have time to go home after work!
February 25, 2010 @ 11:37 am
I can’t go because I just found out about it but will there we another one? I need advanced notice to gather my cd’s.

Please bring this to Chicago! This would be a great networking opportunity and there are quite a few music-files that are in need of getting rid of some baggage. Hint, hint.
