Tunes For The Troops
 



 
**Artist Showcase**



*Still Bill Trailer*


William Harrison "Bill" Withers, Jr. (born July 4, 1938) is an American singer-songwriter and musician who performed and recorded from 1970 until 1985. He is well known for songs like "Lean on Me", "Ain't No Sunshine", "Use Me", "Just the Two of Us", "Lovely Day", and "Grandma's Hands".

Withers was born the youngest of six children in the small coal-mining town of Slab Fork, West Virginia. Raised in nearby Beckley, West Virginia, Withers was twelve years old when his father died. He enlisted with the United States Navy at age eighteen and served for nine years, during which time he became interested in singing and writing songs. Soon after his discharge from the Navy in 1965, he relocated to Los Angeles in 1967 for a musical career.

Withers worked as an assembler for several different companies, including Douglas Aircraft Corporation, while recording demo tapes with his own money, shopping them around and performing in clubs at night. When he debuted with the song "Ain't No Sunshine" he refused to resign his job because of his belief that the music business was a fickle industry and that he was still a novice compared to other acts.

Enjoy the variety of musical selections that the Canteen Deejays provide throughout the thread. Please ping any DJ with your requests for the Troops!


All music is removed on Monday.
Thanks to all the DeeJay's for their time & effort providing entertainment for the Troops!

*Canteen Mission Statement*

Showing support and boosting the morale of
our military and our allies military
and the family members of the above.
Honoring those who have served before.

Yikes! We didn’t have any of those storms here, but they sure did have
some violent stuff in Oklahoma where my kids live. I just
hope the tornadoes that were being warned about didn’t happen!

Stay safe, Star! Enjoy the rain. I sure would! :)

I know that there was a tornado in the Norman area — a cousin posted that she was glad her family in the Norman area survived it. :/

Aloha, Hawaii...((HUGS))...gonna have a sunny weekend?

They are hedging on our 50 degree weekend, but the sun should be shining brightly and more ice should be melting.

I’m glad they did, too! My kids live just north of Norman. I
haven’t heard any more about how they are doing now.

I have a FB friend who is a wounded warrior and lives in SW
Oklahoma where there was a tornado reported, and we haven’t
heard from him since right before the storm hit. He had no
place to go in his wheelchair and lives alone. :\

I'm going to bail - the lightning is getting closer. I'm not worried about it, but Mini is! :)

See you all later!

To all my heroes in the greatest military in the world, protecting and defending the greatest country in the world, God bless each one of you.  Thank you for sacrificing of yourselves so my family can live safe and free.  You make me so proud and grateful!

Goodnight, all!
