Dave Matthews Band is included on the roster of artists scheduled to perform at the July 8 New York City Concert benefiting the "Kerry Victory Committee 2004". The Kerry Campaign and Democratic National Committee announced that Mary J. Blige, John Mellencamp, Jon Bon Jovi, and Wyclef Jean among others are also scheduled to perform at the NY benefit on the 8th at Radio City Music Hall.

Speaking about the upcoming concert, Dave Matthews said, "Whether one is talking about the economy or the environment, jobs, workers' rights or education, national security or the war on terror, John Kerry is the only choice. A vote for John Kerry is a vote for a stronger, safer, better America."

4. Wyclef is the closest thing to bob marley that

my generation will ever see... His name is huge for Kerry, since the other big names in the black community are sell outs.
