The 22nd Annual Tibet House Benefit
If last night's Grammys left you hankering for a massive musical event -- that involves neither Chris Brown nor the Foo Fighters, might we suggest this year's annual Tibet House Benefit, supporting the preservation of Tibetan culture, and curated by Philip Glass. The lineup is a stellar one, and includes Antony, Dechen Shak-Dagsay, Rahzel, James Blake, Das Racist, Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson, and Stephin Merritt. For some nutty reason, tickets are still available here.
