Pop star Nick Jonas and rapper Chamillionaire are pledging their support to the U.S. armed forces by playing a free show in Fort Hood, Texas following a fatal shooting at the army base last month.
The local community was left in shock when Major Nidal Hasan, an army psychiatrist, opened fire on his comrades at the country’s largest army post on November 5th, killing 13 and injuring more than 20 others. Hasan, who was subsequently exposed as a Muslim extremist, has since been charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder.
The free concert, which will also feature the Zac Brown Band, Dana Carvey and Gary Sinise and the Lt. Dan Band, is aimed at lifting spirits in the devastated town.
The event at the Hood Stadium on Friday will also feature complimentary food, carnival games and rides and other entertainment to help heal the community.
Jonas Brothers star Nick will perform as Nick Jonas & The Administration, an offshoot group he formed earlier this year.

Nick Jonas And Chamillionaire To Play Free Show For Army Base
This seriously just pulled at my heart strings. Having so many members of my family in the Armed Forces, when that story aired, I was heartbroken. I felt for each and every person affected by the situation. I’m glad to see that Nick (and the others listed) are headed there to lift spirits. This honestly made my day/night. Thanks so much for posting it.
