See below for the email from MoveOn! Be sure to spread the word!

Thanks,

Dear MoveOn member,

We've always believed that popular culture and populist politics go
hand in hand. That's why MoveOn PAC is very proud to be presenting a
truly historic cultural event: the Vote for Change Tour, featuring
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, the Dave Matthews Band,
Pearl Jam, R.E.M., the Dixie Chicks, John Mellencamp, Jackson Browne,
Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, Babyface, Death Cab for Cutie, Ben
Harper, Jurassic 5, My Morning Jacket, Keb' Mo' and Bright Eyes. The
tour will benefit America Coming Together (ACT). As Mike Mills of
R.E.M. said, "this unprecedented coming together of musicians
underscores the depth of the desire for change in our country's
direction."

For more information, and to sign up for pre-sale tickets, go to:

Never before have so many world-famous musicians come together to
shift the balance in an election. But these artists created the Vote
for Change tour because they feel that this is the most important
election in our nation's history. The schedule is designed to make a
maximum impact: each of the concerts will occur in a key battleground
state during the first and second weeks of October.

Like many MoveOn members, most of the artists have never been
involved in electoral politics before. And like many of us, they're
jumping in now because they believe there's just too much at stake on
November 2nd to sit on the sidelines. Here's how Dave Matthews put
it:

"A vote for change is a vote for a stronger, safer, healthier
America. . . It is our duty to this beautiful land to let our voices
be heard. That's the reason for the tour. That's why I'm doing it."

Tickets go on sale to the public on Saturday, August 21st, but we
have hundreds of tickets to each show that we'll be able to offer to
MoveOn members -- and anyone who joins MoveOn -- a few days before.
To check out the tour dates and sign up for a chance for pre-sale
tickets, just go to:

Please pass this link on to friends and colleagues. As long as
people who click it agree to receive MoveOn emails, they'll have a
shot at the pre-sale tickets.

We're partnering in this effort with America Coming Together (ACT),
the terrific on-the-ground organization which is reaching out to
millions of voters during the run-up to the election. ACT will
receive all of the proceeds from the ticket sales. (There are some
important legal disclaimers on this below.)

The Vote for Change tour is going to be a clear, passionate, and
powerful call to arms for folks in the key battleground states and
beyond. But the incredible array of artists involved is also a
tremendous endorsement of the work we're all doing together -- a
cultural event that will strengthen our voice in national politics.

Thanks for making this possible, through everything you do.

Sincerely,

--Eli Pariser

P.S. By purchasing tickets to these concerts, you will be making a
political contributions to ACT, subject to the limitations and
restrictions of federal campaign laws. Contributions to ACT are not
deductible for federal income tax purposes."
