Default JBJ to Headline at the Military Ball on Tuesday

Inaugural ball will be broadcast live to troops

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Barack Obama's inaugural ball for the military will be broadcast to American troops around the world.

Singer Jon Bon Jovi will headline the event, with comedian George Lopez as emcee and performances by singer Jordin Sparks, Miss America 2009 Kirsten Haglund and the group Right On.

The Presidential Inaugural Committee said Friday that the Commander in Chief ball would be broadcast live on the Pentagon Channel to military bases overseas.

Tickets to the ball will be free to invited guests in the military, families of fallen troops and spouses of deployed soldiers


I don't know if we can all watch on the Pentagon Channel or not. Here's the link just in case - http://www.pentagonchannel.mil/.

I also read somewhere that Jon's going to be on Oprah's show on Wednesday. Jon's a busy guy these days!

There is no shame in playing for the troops at the request of the President.

I agree - it would have been an honour at one time.
