No. MUSHROOMHEAD and DOPE both have a pretty good military following. I think it has to do with the aggressive music. These people that are sent over to Iraq or training for war, whenever they throw this stuff in there headphones, it really makes them feel like there not alone. I can't tell ya how many e-mails we have gotten and letters from soldiers over there that have used 'Die Motherfucker Die' in their CD players and kept it on repeat. They're waiting for some shit to go down. Every time there’s been some kind of function put together for bands to go over to Iraq to perform, we have always thrown our name in the hat. Nobody ever calls us back because we're DOPE , and because the United States military isn't going to support DOPE going to play to their troops. So we decided to try and put something together on our own to give something back since going through the proper channels was not going to work. We want to let them know that there important to us.
