Madison Rising Singing the National Anthem

[GlockOwner]

I never heard of this band, but apparently they are a rock band, and the lead singer is a Navy Vet. Thoughts?

I never thought I would forward our National Anthem being sung by a "hard-rock" group. Some talk-show hosts and comedians have recently criticized the National Anthem as being stupid, silly, too militaristic, and many more insults.

This band sings a version that will knock your socks off ... A Navy Vet Sings The Lead.

Best rendition I have ever heard. I bought their album and it's pretty good.

Better video for mobile users.

I like that a lot better than most of the hack jobs you see at the Super Bowl.

Thanks for that link

Definitely agree, those super bowl anthems are horrible most of the time.

They are featured in an ad for Cabot 1911's in this latest issue of Recoil Magazine that I got for free from the NRA show. The lead singer is holding one of their guns.

I look forward to the presentation of the colors and the National Anthem. I accept each singer or group and like the way they stylize the anthem. Unfortunately, some sing the anthem too slowly. It's not a song. It's a conversation where the main character asks: Is the flag still up there after all of this bombardment?

I've been to Fort McHenry and it has special meaning to me as I've stood on those "ramparts".

The only anthem performance that I objected to was given many years ago by Rosanne Barr who screamed the words. It was very disrespectful.

Never heard of Cabot. Anyone own one of their 1911s? Same class as Wilson or Christenson?

They cost upwards of around $5,000.

They are CNC milled to exact, precise tolerances, and provide a tight, smooth fit, yet the parts are 100% interchangeable with all other Cabot 1911's. No fitting required.

They have a nice selection of finishes, including standard blue and high polish blue. Their high polish blue is so shiny that I confused it to be a high polished nickel finish.

Their guns are amazing, and I'd love to own one if I had a few grand to blow on something nice.

They're good. I like it when rock bands take relatable songs and do covers for them. Sounds like 'Merica.
