us with the announcement of the 2004 Plea For Peace tour, which will take place between April and June 2004 featuring Cursive, Desaparecidos and Mike Park:

The Plea For Peace Foundation and Music for America are proud to bring you the 2004 Plea For Peace tour. In 2004, music will take on a huge role in the electoral process. This upcoming election is perhaps one of the single most important events for us as voting citizens, and we have made it our primary goal to actively participate in the significant months and days leading up to the election. The tour will take a non-partisan stance and focus primarily on the power and importance of the electoral process itself. The main objective is to get youth communities and young adults excited about voting, let them decide what is right for them and give them a voice for the future.

Voter registration will be available in all cities and concert-goers will be able to register with any party. In order to support media diversity, the tour will play non-Clear Channel venues only. Each artist will donate 10% of their earnings to a charity of their choice.
