Right on! Bandit Lites — known for lighting up the stage for artists like ZZ Top and Van Halen — installed 2,000 lights, stretched across two miles on the National Mall in front of the Capitol.

Happy birthday to psychedelic rock goddess, @janisjoplin! Here's a picture of her name on The Cap’s marquee from August 8, 1970. Close your eyes, picture yourself in the crowd, and imagine hearing “Mercedes Benz” for the very first time. #janisjoplin

Today we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. “Life's piano can only produce the melodies of brotherhood when it is recognized that the black keys are as basic, necessary, and beautiful as the white keys." Long live the dream. #MLKDay

Update from under the Dome! We checked in with the theater last night and she’s still sleeping well, resting up, and conserving all of the energy she will need for our return! Can’t wait to meet up with you all again, under the Dome that has made so much magic happen... 📸: Peter Shapiro #TheCapWillBeBack
