NOTE FROM JEFF:

Everybody’s second favorite 527, MoveOn.org, is
sponsoring a concert series in early October,
featuring popular liberal musicians performing –
only in “swing states,” of course — to raise money
to help defeat Bush in the Nov. 2 election.

The Top 8 Things Overheard
on the Vote for Change Tour

8> David Lee Roth: “Well, I’m actually *pro-Bush*, if ya know
what I mean.”

7> “I guess Pearl Jam hates the Republicans more than they hate
Ticketmaster.”

6> “Hey, babe, do you want to see why they call this a ’swing
state?’”

5> “Okay, I think I understood the Dixie Chicks’ rant, but I
definitely didn’t get the message of John Fogerty’s wardrobe
malfunction.”

4> “I love the bit when Springsteen smashes his guitar on Ralph
Nader.”

3> “A GOP administration means better coke, but the Dems always
have the best weed.”

2> “I dunno — it *might* be John Edwards, but it could just be a
Backstreet Boy.”

and the Number 1 Thing Overheard on the Vote for Change Tour…

1> “Sorry, this is ‘Rockers to Re-Elect Bush’ — ‘Country Artists
for Kerry’ is meeting in the *other* phone booth.”
