Kid Rock, Robin Williams Visits Troops For Christmas
Kid Rock spent his Christmas performing for US troops overseas for the second year in a row. He was joined other celebrities like Robin Williams, Lance Armstrong, Lewis Black, and Miss USA 2007 Rachel Smith for an eight-day, seven-country tour with USO.
Kid makes an immediate connection to American service members when he sangs “Cowboy,” “Sweet Home Alabama” and many other hits, the young servicemen and women sang along.
Rock said the question is not why he does it, “but how can you not?”
He said that every second with the troops is overwhelming. “They give their best every day, … and we absolutely must give them our best,” he said.
Being with the troops puts life in perspective, the rocker said, adding that he is proud of what the servicemembers do and wants to pay them back for their sacrifices. “The whole experience has been incredible,” he said. “I’ll do it to the day I die, so long as I am needed.”
We’re sure the crowd would love it more if Pamela Anderson went instead of Kid Rock. But its still a good things that they are doing there!
