The Democratic National Convention, Blogs and Musicians
I'm sure you can tell by the links on my sidebar who I support in this year's presidential election. And that means I'm crazy excited about the Democratic National Convention happening in Denver, Colorado.
When I had a chance to interview the guys from Death Cab for Cutie, I found out that Ben Gibbard and Chris Walla, one half of Death Cab, will be performing a couple of shows at the convention.
If you're in the area here is the info on a show on Wednesday, August 27th.

Oh, update time. I found video from CNN.com where they're interviewing Chris Walla and Ben Gibbard at the convention. Check it out. (Although CNN has a video embed function, it keeps coming up as a malfunction. So until they fix it, a link will have to do.)
