Harry and the Potters, Part 2

Whitney and Andrew's review of Harry and the Potters and their Wizard Rock the Vote event continue.

Whitney: It was great! At one point Harry and the Potters totally stopped to explain the need to vote so that we don't have a situation like in HP, when Cornelius Fudge (the minister of magic) was in denial that the Voldemort had returned


Andrew: It was really cool how they tied in the HP universe and story and applied it to real-world problems or courses of actions that needed to happen. Using that story to encourage people to vote was brilliant, and completely effective for their audience. It was almost surprising. They didn't have to register people, make shirts and posters, or film the video. But they did, which shows how much voting means to them.

Whitney: Yeah, it was fantastic. And I think one of my favorite things were the people involved. One of the Harrys was walking around wearing a Wizard Rock the Vote shirt in honor of real Rock the Vote coming to the show. I mean they genuinely care about their cause and their audience
Andrew: I think you hit the nail on the head, they genuinely care. And because of this even for someone who hasn't read a HP book, it was engaging. I had no idea what they were talking about, but I could still relate to their message and enjoy the show.

Whitney: And for avid fans of the books, it was hysterical to be singing the song "Save Ginny Weasley," which came chalk fully of references that had the best of us participating. All in all...Harry and the Potters rocked the Black Cat, and their counterpart, the Harry Potter Alliance is, well, Wizard Rocking the Vote.
