The Hill: Are Democrats planning on partying more? A spokesman for the Republican National Convention declined to comment. And, of course, everyone wants to know where they can spot a celebrity.

The Black Eyed Peas will be playing in Denver, while the Charlie Daniels Band will be jamming in St. Paul.

But competing with them on Wednesday night will be concerts hosted by the ONE campaign and the Recording Industry Association of America. Kanye West will headline the Denver party. The musical guest for St. Paul has yet to be announced. Wyclef Jean will sing on Monday, Aug. 25, at the Democratic National Convention’s Rock the Vote Ballot Bash. On Tuesday, singers Melissa Etheridge, Cyndi Lauper and Rufus Wainwright will perform at a Rock to Win event.

Actress Jennifer Lopez will be co-hosting an event with New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson (D) on Wednesday. And, on that same day, the Creative Coalition will host a brunch with Annette Bening to celebrate her film on female senators that is coming out on DVD in September. Also on Wednesday, Ben Affleck will take part in a panel discussion on international relations, moderated by NBC anchor Tom Brokaw.
