The Beastie Boys, a famous American hip hop group from New York City, have added three shows to their swing state tour in support of the presidential candidate Barack Obama.
"We are going to do a few shows in hopes that we can remind people to vote," the Beastie Boys said in a joint statement, adding that they are endorsing Barack Obama. "This election is too important, too much is at stake to stay at home. We hope that you can come out, have a nice night, dance, sing, get your freak on, and then wake up the next morning and get everyone that you possibly can to get out and vote."
The 'get out the vote' tour began on October 27th in Charlotte, N.C., together with Sheryl Crow and Santogold.
Sheryl Crow, Ben Harper and Norah Jones supported the tour two nights later in Youngstown, Ohio, while Crow and Harper will play tonight in Dayton, Ohio.
Jack Johnson, Tenacious D and David Crosby and Graham Nash are on board to play shows November 1 in St. Paul, Minn., and November 2 in Milwaukee.
