Hey Friends, we just returned home from the road with Streetlight Manifesto, just in time to vote! We hope you made it out to the polls to make some noise. In the meantime, we are pleased to let it be known that no matter who wins the election, we will be on their ass to make sure they stick to their words. First step, DEMAND IN DC art show with our comrades, ANTI-FLAG. More info below: DEMAND IN DC: Applauding the Empowerment of People thru Art / Photo / Film/ Music. Inauguration Day: January 20th, 2009 @ The Black Cat in Washington, DC. (All 4 rooms.) w/ Anti-Flag, United Nations, The A.K.A.s, and Ruiner. "DEMAND IN DC" is a celebration of people's desire, will, and actions evoking change in our lives and the direction of the world. As the rest of the country recognizes the inauguration of America's new President... Artists, Photographers, Filmmakers, and Musicians converge on our Nation's capitol to recognize and empower the REAL agents of change: the People. "If history has taught us anything, let it be this: We are the writers and shapers of our stories, not presidents, prime ministers, or any politician for that matter. Regardless of the outcome of this election, it will be up to us, the people, to continue to push for the progression of human and environmental rights. This show is evidence." - Chris #2 / Anti-Flag Participating Artists include: HorseBites, Charles Stanley Doll IV, MIke Ski, Mitch Clem, Erik Davidson, David S. Holloway, Kencredible, Ben Lande, and many more! Together with local DC sponsor Shirts for a Cure, DEMAND IN DC will feature "Quilts for a Cure," auctioning off 4 giant quilts made of the over 200 band shirt designs the cancer research benefit has released since it's inception. **Call for Artists:** This is an open call to all Designers, Artists, Photographers, Filmmakers, sculptors, animators, etc... to participate in "DEMAND IN DC." Final entries included in the show will be judged by a panel of peers to win radical prizes. Email all submissions and Inquiries to: DemandinDC@gmail.com by December 20th. You will be contacted with details and guidelines regarding the show. Final Artist Line up will be announced January 2nd, 2009.
