This one is especially for HP and Ogg...

Speaking of drums and fifes and flutes and tubas...check out the Ohio State University Marching Band's great performance at Wembley Stadium yesterday:

This is why they are called 'The Best Damn Band In The Land' in the USA

I'm a bit concerned about their version of our National Anthem (would they do that to the Stars & Stripes, or whatever it is?).
But I did like the ending, with the flags of both nations.
It was all most impressive.

Sometimes TBDBITL gets a little more creative than they really should with the music.

I'm pretty sure there were some raised eyebrows over here that they displayed the Union Jack in a more prime position than our Stars and Stripes. But hey...when you are in Rome you pay homage to the Romans...in spite of that little tiff we had a couple hundred years ago.

Glad you liked it.

Perhaps not, but I've heard bands from other nations do it to the Star-Spangled Banner.
I remember the New Zealand national band giving a rather unusual rendition of it; I actually thought it worked nicely. Wish I could find a clip of it.

Nothing will ever be worse than when one of our own did this to the national anthem:

Roseanne Barr Murders the Star Spangled Banner

Hard to believe that was 25 years ago.

*shrug* What did they expect? It's not like she was noted for her singing ability.
And it's not the most melodic of tunes to begin with.

Well, it's nice seeing you two play chat tennis again. It's been too long.
