1. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson urging young people to register to vote in 2000, while wearing "the boy band look" aka a ribbed sweater and wide-ass pants:

2. A pre-Fergie Black Eye Peas hanging out with Moby at a Rock the Vote party in 2001:

3. Also hanging out together at that party were Eve (rocking Fetish?!) and Mary J. Blige...

4. ...and Jesse Jackson and Tyrese:

5. West Wing stars Elizabeth Moss and actor Martin Sheen on a Rock the Vote panel held at Universal City Walk in Universal City, CA in 2000:

6. Also at the event was Ashton Kutcher, who was sporting his full-on That '70s Show Kelso hair:

7. Melissa Joan Hart, Tom Green, and Soleil Moon Frye probably discussing their local voting places at an event in 2002:

8. Usher bringing the sexy into voting at a party in 2001:

9. Of course, Rock the Vote had to have some people who ~rock~ perform at it, like the Foo Fighters...

10. ...Tenacious D...

11. ...and Whoa, Nelly!-era Nelly Furtado:

12. Dave Matthews accepting the Patrick Lippert Award in 2002 (also, I hoped he performed his '00s classic "Everyday"):

13. Destiny's Child at the Rock The Vote 2002 Patrick Lippert Awards — with a real missed opportunity by Tina Knowles to have the trio in coordinating Rock the Vote bedazzled tees (that was sooo early '00s):

14. And finally, maybe the most early-'00s pic of all, Rob Thomas and Carlos Santana at a MTV Rock the Vote Party in 2001, where I really, really hope they performed "Smooth."

Sure, these pictures might be a throwback — but with the 2018 midterm elections fast approaching, your vote is now more important than ever.
