Deadline via Yahoo ^ | 8/14/20 | Ted Johnson

Posted on 08/14/2020 5:42:08 PM PDT by Libloather

John Legend, The Chicks, Common and Billie Eilish are among the performers scheduled to appear next week at the Democratic National Convention.

Also in the lineup: Leon Bridges, Jennifer Hudson, Billy Porter, Maggie Rogers, Prince Royce and Stephen Stills.

They will be featured at points during the four nights of the convention.

“These artists are committed to engaging with, registering and mobilizing voters to get us over the finish line in November,” Stephanie Cutter, program executive for the convention, said in a statement.

Convention organizers said that they will perform new songs and American classics. On Monday evening, youth choir members across the country will perform the National Anthem, with Commonwealth Youthchoirs arranging 57 members representing the 50 states and territories.

Because of the coronavirus, almost all of the convention will take virtually, after Democrats scrapped plans for speakers to travel to host city Milwaukee.

I’ll be catching up on binge watching some shows. I won’t be watching any democrat convention coverage. I can barely stand it when conservative shows play clips of liberal media and democrats.

I’ve heard of Stephen Stills but who are the rest of these people. I guess I am just old and out of touch.

Off topic but why couldn’t they find something to replace “Dixie” with? “The Chicks” sounds lame.

Agreed. They should have thought of a whole new name or replaced “Dixie” with something else 🙄—

Forget 'Death of a Salesman', this is 'Death of an Entertainer'.

What do you do when you have nothing left in the well of inspiration?
-Re-record the greatest hits
-Open a show in Las Vegas
-Take off your clothes
-Branch out to be a "slashie" as in musician / actor
-Become a judge on a show like the current bad singer shows

But if none of your past fans will stomach that, your last option is to become a political screecher.

Screech, screech, screech...
