AXE Performs For Service Members In Iraq

April 7, 2009

According to News Blaze, '80s Texas rock legends AXE, known for such classic rock anthems as "Rock and Roll Party In The Streets" and "Battles", made a recent trip to perform for service members and civilians aboard Al Asad Air Base, Iraq.

The concert, which drew a packed audience to the Al Asad theater, featured many of the classics that made AXE a staple of the 1980s rock scene.

On that Saturday night, in a place thousands of miles away from what most service members call home, two brothers-in-law came together for the first time in more than four years.

"Since we've gotten out here, I've gone through the whole spectrum of positive emotions," said Scott Misner, the band's drummer. "But seeing my brother-in-law for the first time in so many years is just an amazing feeling ... it's beyond description."
