Rock 'n' Roll Tour of Duty
The Army is looking for a few good entertainers. This week, the service posted a solicitation on the FedBizOpps Web site for "a tour manager and artists" to head over to the Middle East to perform for troops providing continuing support to Operation Iraqi Freedom. Specifically, the soliciation seeks acts in the following areas: Top 40, country, rap/soul/r&b, comedy, Latin/Hispanic, Polynesian dance (I swear I'm not making that up) and "AC/DC tribute band." I think that last one's a giveaway that they want ThundHerStruck on the tour.
Oh, and by the way, lest any of these performers get the wrong idea, the solicitation specifically spells out that during the performances, "an acknowledged deity will not be referred to in a manner that would offend a follower of any faith," and "profanity, vulgarity, or connotations of sexual depravity and perversion will not be used."
