Last night I went out to LA’s Wiltern theater to witness a once in a blue moon assortment of talent assembled by Jack Black and co. to raise money for Haiti earthquake survivors.
I recorded some fantastically washed-out grainy video in an attempt to share this experience with you. Not only do the following clips give you a sense of the performances, they also recreate the crowd’s futile attempts to see anything amidst a standing room only mob. In any case, enjoy the festivities:
A truly unexpected performance here from the WWF’s Iron Sheik.
Here’s the Shins’ James Mercer covering Neil Young’s Don’t Let it Bring You Down…
Genius comedian Patton Oswalt regaled the crowd with his angry musings before an Aimee Mann set.
He then brought the house down with his Yoshinoya Beef Bowl routine.
Here’s Ben Stiller vamping on stage with a mysterious figure referring to himself as ‘Fabreeze Fabreeze.’
A vindictive Stiller returned during Tenacious D’s closing act with a giant drum set…
All in all, a very compelling night of entertainment.
