Help out the troops around the world

***Please keep all political B.S. out of this thread***

With the tour only a few weeks away I thought it would be cool to be able to get live music to all the troops around the world.

I have a buddy and fellow Ant (thegravedigger), Jay, stationed in Iraq right now. You may know somebody in the military who is out of the country or maybe you would like to help someone who is in the same position.

What I would like to see accomplished in this thread is to have people offer to help out the troops and get them some live music.

I thought it would be expensive to send stuff out but it's not....it's considered domestic mail. I just sent Jay about 25 CDs, priority mail and it only cost me $3.85.

If you know someone stationed outside of the country and don't have the means (no burner, can't download, etc.) and want to help them leave your info here.

If you want to help someone, also leave your info here.

There are some people you can help out in this thread: http://www.antsmarching.org/forum/sh...highlight=iraq

I'm going to try to keep this as organized as possible. Try and contact each other through PM, email or IM, but please post when an offer has been completed.

If anyone has any ideas on how to make this run smoother please shoot me a PM.

thanks y'all

    Re: Help out the troops around the world

    This is a great idea.

    I'd be interested in providing this summer's shows on a regular basis to our troops, at the expense to myself. Once the first few shows of June start to become available, I will be more than happy to provide the shows to anyone currently serving around the world.

    If you are a troop and are interested in any of this summer's shows, please PM me here, or e-mail me at ryguy178(AT)yahoo.com and give me your info. I will provide the show with no cost or materials borne to yourself.

    Please don't be that jerk that really isn't a troop and just wants a free show. I'm sure that the addresses given will seperate legitimate requests from bogus ones, so be respectful and don't even try.

    A big thanks to all of you who are currently serving, and this is just a small way of showing my thanks.

    as a sergeant in the army reserves...just reading through this thread is enough for me. it always amazes me the things people will do nowadays for people in uniform. i can speak for all of us in saying that every little bit of support is greatly appreciated and goes a long way...whether it be something like this...care packages...or even just a nod, smile, or thank you. so this is an awesome idea, and i am sure it will make a few soldiers' time in the sandbox a little more like home.

    i would be willing to send dvds if there was interest, but this sounds like audio.. if there is interest for dvds i would be happy to help. i dont know anyone stationed in iraq or around the world, so someone would need to email me and tell me who and where to send to.

    I can also send audio as well for new and past shows.

    ethansinclair@yahoo.com

    Sincerely.

    I've already sent audio and dvd shows of both DMB and other bands and I'd be more than happy to send some more. Any soldiers wanting some tunes, shoot me and email and let me know what you want!

    Be safe, and thanks for what you're doing!

    great job!

    I don't think it matters what year you offer or what artist you offer or whether it's dvds, audio, shn or flac.

    thanks y'all

    keep the offers coming

    fyi
    i don't think this was mentioned earlier in the thread
    but anyone concerned w/ shipping costs ......
    the packages that i sent at christmas were the same cost as sending packages anywhere in the US.. <<meaning there are no over-seas costs etc.
    just thought i'd throw that in, in case there were others wanting to share but concerned w/ the expense..

    just DOOOOOOOOO it

    I can burn whatever's on my list however many times is needed for our troops. And it still wouldn't be near enough gratitude.

    Why don't we take up a collection to ship this to a base somewhere since he's trying to dump such a huge audio bundle?
