Iraq and Roll


I found something I wanted to share from the March 2007 Guitar World magazine.
Longtime friend of the Chop Shop and WRIF Jasin Todd and his band Shinedown hooked up with the U.S.O. to play shows in Iraq and Kuwait.
The interesting part is that this is not an interview or a story. It’s just excerpts from Jasin’s journal. It’s Jasin talking about the experience, everything from suiting up in vest and helmet to his fear of flying that was "Cured by sitting in the co-pilot’s chair of a c-130 on the way to Camp Al Asad for the next gig".

It’s a very cool piece, check it out if you get a chance.
