The National, Sleater-Kinney, More to Perform at Women’s March After-Party
By Matthew Strauss.
The Women’s March on Washington takes place on Saturday, January 21—the day after Inauguration Day. Later that night, D.C.’s 9:30 Club will host the Official March After-Party. Presented along with Funny or Die, all proceeds from the event are going to Planned Parenthood. The After-Party will feature the National, Sleater-Kinney, Tig Notaro, Ted Leo, Samantha Ronson, Janeane Garofalo, and others; Senators Al Franken and Cory Booker are also set to attend.
Tickets for the Official March After-Party have sold out. The 9:30 Club, however, has put 10 pairs of tickets up for auction through Charitybuzz. Bid for them here (until January 20 at noon Eastern). Proceeds from the auction will go to Planned Parenthood.
In addition to the After-Party, the National are set to perform at the 9:30 Club’s pre-Inauguration concert on January 19. The free show is hosted by Planned Parenthood and All Access. Common is also set to perform.
