A diverse group of acts - including Drive-By Truckers, Jim James, Iron & Wine, Toro y Moi, boygenius, Ty Segall, Good Charlotte and Playboi Carti - are participating in #iVoted events, promising free concert tickets to people who vote on Tuesday, Nov. 6. The roster of 78 events across 32 states continues to grow, and all participants need to get their tickets is a photo of themselves outside their polling place (depending on the show, the offer is limited to the first 50-200 individuals who arrive at the venue). “I certainly don’t profess to understand all the ins and outs of how our government is run,” Wilco's Pat Sansone told Jambands.com of the project. “But I’m learning more and I think that we have to encourage people to understand the process more and to get involved—local elections, state elections, our congressional representatives, all of that. People need to know that they have a voice in making those decisions.” Participating venues include NYC's Gramercy Theatre, Irving Plaza, Warsaw and Brooklyn Bowl, as well as Stubb's, Emo's and Scoot Inn in Austin, Texas. Los Angeles can count The Regent, The Echo and Echoplex as part of #ivoted as well. For a full list of participating venues and events visit ivotedconcerts.com
