"This is where (Rock the Vote) started, with the Democratic Convention, and it just kind of tied up in a neat bow. And there's a lot of important things going on here in Colorado."
-- Kim Rogers of Rock the Vote
"It's about joining forces for this election. This is, by a long shot, the most important election of our lives. I think it's crucial to go out and vote. It's easy to get disenfranchised ... but it's critical to see it through."
-- Mike Diamond, Beastie Boys
"It's important to us that everyone who has an opinion should vote. Otherwise it seems like a real waste. There are people who are passionate that somehow don't even get out to vote. If everyone voted in the past elections, I dare say there'd have been very different people winning elections."
-- Jack Black, Tenacious D
"If you don't vote, you don't have the right to complain, like those who do."
-- Adam Yauch, Beastie Boys

The two groups teamed up, along with Rock the Vote, to throw a last-minute concert in order to encourage fans to participate in the Democratic process, get out and vote.
