Not to go off on a tangent, I considered enlisted as drafted, but I better clarify it. Drafted? I thought of a better way to determine that. What was his rank?

If you replaced his grandmas middle name with his third cousins birthday while singing happy birthday on 7th street would he be Americana? Getting back to current clues: Dead In the 90s American crappy musician who did some acting. I’m going to go with Jon Bon Jersey because he is dead to me...I think I first heard him in the 90s so that’s when he was dead to me....he was a crappy musician who did some acting. Did I get it?
