My friend and coworker, Anders, has been working on putting together a local fundraiser for Barack. You know that song called "Fake Palindromes" that's playing on my pink player on the side bar? That's Andrew Bird and that's who is playing at the fundraiser. Here are the details:
With a clean sweep in Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, Wisconsin, Hawaii, strong momentum is building for the Obama campaign -- and I'm pleased to invite you to both celebrate and contribute to this movement next Thursday, Feb. 28, with a special night of music at the Hideout.
Who: ANDREW BIRD & DIANOGAH, playing separately and together
Where: The Hideout
When: 7:30 p.m. Thurs., Feb 28
Why: To benefit Obama for America
How: $100 donation via https://donate.barackobama.com/page/contribute/chicago22808
Bonus: All in attendance will receive an exclusive, ultra-limited-edition, hand-screened poster by Kathleen Judge.

Cool site. I'm always looking for other Illinois bloggers. I'm from deep south Illinois, where it's blue as can be.
Just got back from this event. Way cool. Andrew Bird is a real talent as was Dianogah. Who knew two bass players and a small kit could sound so cool. Here's to songs about winning! Or a guy with a violin, a bunch of samplers and delays, and an over the top restrained wit could be that mezmerizing. Great event that brought a lot of like minded progressives together for a good cause: Obama.
The Hideout is the progressive place to be!
Hi Michael!
Unfortunately, I couldn't make it tonight. I'm glad you went! The Hideout is a super cool place, I agree. They have all kinds of interesting events there.
