The Vandals Play For U.S. Troops in Iraq. (Sadr City)- Nice Army Moshpit

This is from the Vandals tour of Iraq and Kuwait in 2004/2005. http://wapedia.mobi/en/Sadr_City.
These soldiers were in harms way probably more than any others in front of which we were lucky enough to play. How we got to this forward operating base and how we got out of there is another story. Hopefully I will get all the documentary footage together to release soon. The song is called "And Now We Dance" from the album "LIve Fast: Diarrhea."

Puddle of Mud went, and their tour manager Fitzjoy had a great time and arranged for us to go back and he was the T.M for us. The contractor was a company called A.K.A.

Thanks for the kind words. :)

and to say the vandals arent punk for playing for the troops, shows your god damn ignorance, punk is not giving a fuck what others think and doing what you want to do, and many punk bands support the troops, they may not support war but they do support the troops.

@rockeiradomal None of us veterans made the decision to go to the sandbox (unless we volunteered) - we were ordered to go. The Vandals aren't any less punk by deciding to entertain us and lift our spirits and put a smile on our faces while we were over there from 6 months to over a year hating life and wanting nothing more than to come home to see our families and friends and to not smell fumes from the shit-pond and dodge rockets, mortars and bullets every day. Please grow up.
