ZZ Top: Dusty’s Doing His Duty

ZZ Top bassist Dusty Hill has filmed a Public Service Announcement on behalf of Veterans Matter, a campaign started by the Toledo, Ohio-based non-profit organization One Matters, which helps find homeless vets and their families shelter.

Hill says, "It’s really disturbing that nowadays it has somehow become acceptable for American soldiers damaged by the physical or mental trauma of war to be abandoned, forgotten and left homeless on the streets of our nation. On those streets they have been beaten, robbed and some even killed. If this kind of thing happened behind enemy lines, we’d be outraged. Veterans matter, and we should and must take care of our own.”

John Mellencamp has also lent his support.
