Let’s Get Literal: Revenge Of The Book Eaters 2007

The lineup's just been announced for this year's party for literacy, going down at the Beacon Theatre in NYC. It's the Revenge Of The Book Eaters, in which:

A.C. Newman sings alone
Grizzly Bear is a band
Feist reads from a book
Jim James croons
Sarah Vowell speaks
Demetri Martin hosts

The show is one-night-only this year, at NYC's Beacon Theater -- on 8/26 to benefit 826NYC (cute!), the nonprofit Brooklyn writing helping kids to get expositive. Last year Sufjan and Byrne had a duet on "Saginaw, Michigan." Who knows what the indie all-stars have cooked up this year, but you can bet it'll be awesome. Literally! (Ha!) Tickets range from $35-$50 and go on sale tomorrow at 10AM. Get 'em here.
