Tonight at the Oriental Theater, Gordon Gano of the Violent Femmes is sitting in again with the Dirty Femmes, the tribute act devoted to Gano’s band and led by Jen Korte. That, in itself, is reason enough to make your way to the Oriental Theater, but here’s another compelling reason: All of the proceeds from tonight’s show will go directly toward helping victims of the recent Oklahoma tornadoes.

All proceeds from tonight’s show, which will be broadcast live, will be donated directly to the Oklahoma Association of Conservation Districts.
