The Democratic National Convention hits Denver's INVESCO Field at the end of August. But it's going to need earplugs to drown out the sounds of metal and hip-hop coming from nearby Denver Coliseum where Rage Against the Machine, The Coup, MC5 frontman Wayne Kramer and more will be protesting the continuing war in Iraq.
My guess is that Joe Lieberman will not be attending.
this audio or video is no longer availableThe Tent State Music Festival to End the War, as it is called, is an all-day affair. Doors open at 9:30AM, and the shows run from 11AM until the troops come home. (Just kidding.) Best part of all? Tickets are free. Interested concertgoers should show up with a photo ID at Cuernavaca Park from 11AM-6:30PM on Aug. 24-26 during the convention; the lucky ones will get an email telling them the where and when.
And lest you think this is a liberals-only affair, load this into your magazine: The bands will be joined by Iraq Veterans Against the War. It takes a village, people. To screw everything up, and to save us all.
