Tonight at 5 pm eastern is the National Tree Lighting Ceremony, which is put on by the National Park Foundation. The Obamas will attend and so will the Bidens.
The ceremony will be live streamed here and at WhiteHouse.gov. I'm sure it will also be live streamed at cnn.com. Some of the performers: Sheryl Crow, Common, Ray LaMontagne, American Idol Jordin Sparks, jazz artist and saxophonist Joshua Redman, Jazz pianist Brad Mehldau and Celtic Woman.
