[QUOTE="prisonplanet, post: 1521842, member: 23336"] I was a photojournalist in the army and after my first tour in Iraq in 2004 I got home and The Strokes were headlining a festival in Nashville. This was after their second album when they were a big deal. I called their publicist and somehow got to interview them, then they invited me to watch the show backstage. Got to hang out with them for several hours before the show then watched from backstage. They were fantastic. I asked their drummer Fabrizio Moretti to sign his drumsticks for the son of LTC Kim Orlando, an officer who was killed in Iraq. Our secretary was his wife and their son was an aspiring drummer in middle school. A couple week after the show they sent him a whole care package with a bunch of signed things including drumsticks.
