When 82-year-old John Hetlinger stepped on to the stage for his America's Got Talent audition, the last thing the judges expected was his performance of Drowning Pool's "Bodies." Now, he will be joining Drowning Pool on stage to perform the hit.

"Hetlinger -- who will be treated to copious amounts of alcohol provided by the band -- will also be on hand to sign autographs following the set," according to Billboard.

"After the retired aerospace engineer appeared on AGT, Drowning Pool guitarist C.J. Pierce told Billboard he was on a mission to find him and 'have him come out onstage and sing a song with us.'

"Bodies" is one of the biggest hits for Drowning Pool and they are going to be delivering a pretty memorable performance featuring Hetlinger.
