Yeah, I know it's late, sorry; I got the email last night & didn't get a chance to slap the info up here right now. The show, which was set up by Room 101's Roburt Reynolds, is a benefit for a hospital in the impoverished/ coup-stricken country of Honduras, run by a guy named Dr. Luther Castillo, where the poorest Hondurans can get healthcare.

The new Honduran government has repeatedly threatened Dr. Castillo and cut off the salaries of the doctor's at Castillo's hospital, so they need whatever assistance they can get to keep helping people. Definitely a worthy cause, I'd say.

The bad part? Well, the benefit's already going on right now, today -- the show started at 2PM. It'll run through 7PM or so tonight, though, and features a bunch of bands, plus veggie/Mexican food, drinks, and presentations and films on the hospital and the situation in Honduras. Here's the schedule Roburt sent out:

2:00-2:45p Okinawa
2:45-3:30 Evelyn Zuniga Presentation
3:30-4:00 Student Presentation
4:00-4:30 Permanent Vegetative State
4:40-5:15 Anarchitex
5:15-5:30 Geltab
5:30-5:45 Student Presentation
5:45-6:15 Short Film on Honduran Hospital
6:15-6:35 Room 101
6:45-7:15 The Delta Block

Anyway, the benefit's at Sedition Books, over at 901 Richmond -- good bands (esp. Roburt's own one-man-band), good cause, good food, good everything, so get on over there, eh?
