Elections "dar lab-e-Darya"

The Afghan election is starting in exactly eight days. This will mark Afghanistan's second election since the United States' invasion. Unfortunately, I have not been keeping up-to-date with all the news, therefore, I'll refrain myself from commenting on the elections; however, I do want to share an article that was sent to me by a friend. It is an article about the attempt of an artist to make a difference in Afghanistan's historic moment. Farhad Darya, one of my all-time favorite Afghan singers, is performing a free show in an attempt to encourage the Afghan population to vote. This is an attempt to Rocking the Vote, Afghan-Style.
