Of note, this account says they might be live streaming the show tonight

Actually, it might be more likely the stream will come from The Benton Blount band's Instagram account:

I saw that it was livestreamed last year. Livestream would be sweet.

To be safe, best to follow both accounts tonight to see if they stream anything...also Slash and Nancy Wilson's accounts...

Other luminaries that might be there...

Nancy with be there, Ann will not (unless the sisters decide to do a surprise reconciliation at the event). Talk of Ann is an error.

Do'h I'm losing my GD mind... I somehow convinced myself "Ann" Wilson will be there, but obviously it's Nancy :/

I even tweeted out Nancy.... man, things have been going down hill fast since I turned 50

Gearing up to perform with Slash and an awesome line up of special
guests tonight commemorating national endangered species day, including Nancy Wilson, Liv Warfield, Robert Randolph, Haley Reinhart, Benton Blount, Rob Stone, and an all star band- Joe Sublett, Mark Pender, Philip Lo Presti, Mike Merritt, Melanie Jo, Louise Van Veenendaal, Dahlia Guigui, Michele Fitzgerald Winick. GREAT CAUSE - ALL FOR THE ANIMALS. — with Slash.

Included a picture of himself with Slash:

I wonder if he had anything to do with Haley being added to the bill. He was the music director for that event with all the living presidents and Lady Gaga. If he fulfilled a similar role here it seems likely.
