didn't see anything about this on here and i'm not sure this is the right forum, but someone will move it otherwise.
if you haven't heard about it, a double cd compilation is being released tomorrow (2/17) called 'dark was the night'. it has a lot of present and past bonnaroo artists and proceeds go to help to fight aids. all exclusive tracks. and the disc names seem oddly 'roo-ish.

Good call, man, but I'm going to do my duty and move this!
no problem. it was a toss-up between this forum and troo since there are a lot of bands on the CDs playing this year.
yesterday the national guys hosted a show on xm and played most, if not all, of it and threw in some interesting info between tracks. they said the yeasayer song was going to be on a single, but they convinced them to let them have it to raise money for a good cause. makes me like those guys even more.
and amazon currently has it for $10 if you're interested.
