I'm seeing them all in Philly on October 1rst. I know the tickets will be terribly expensive but I can't wait. I posted about the tour here:

They just announced the Philly shows this morning so if you live in any of the states mentioned you may want to keep your ears open.

REM and Bruce is enough for me. I never heard of these bright eyes people.

Hope they come by Chicago. Illinois isn't really a swing state however.

Here, I fixed it for you. You had the bands in the wrong places.

So you planning on venue jumping?

My understanding is that these aren't all one bill, rather three separate shows on the same date in the same city. Though I'd like to see Bruce, I'll be going to REM at the St. Paul date.

R.E.M. and Bright Eyes are divine. Springsteen is damn near unforgivable.

They announced on the radio today that R.E.M., Bruce, Bright Eyes and John Fogerty will all be at the same show, in Philadelphia at least. They confirmed everything but ticket prices so hopefully that won't change. I'm not sure who else is matched up with who, I know Death Cab is matched up with someone odd. Bright Eyes is alright but with my mom from New Jersey and my dad from Georgia I grew up with R.E.M. and Bruce so I'm pretty fucking exciting. :D

They are all on a tour that is thinly veiled as a fundraiser for John Kerry?

It's not even thinly veiled. They're being sponsored by MoveOn.
