A Good Week To Live in North Carolina

If you live in or near North Carolina this week, you're in for some quality music options thanks to the upcoming Democratic primary.

First, as you've probably already heard, The Arcade Fire and Superchunk are teaming up to hold One-Stop Early Voting Concerts in Greensboro (Thu., 5/1) and Carrboro (Fri., 5/2). The concerts are in support of Baby, You Got a Stew Goin'-endorsed Barack Obama, and allow new voters to both register and vote at the concerts. For more information about the shows, go here.

Second, and possibly more exciting (to me, that is), is news that Asheville's Reigning Sound will also be playing a Barack-B-Que early voter appreciation show TOMORROW (Sat. 4/26) at Joli Rouge, 130 College Street, Asheville. The party starts at 3pm. Here's the poster:
