Did that remind you of anything????

Dang I miss that.  I forget who used to sing it at Neyland, but he did it so well.  Goosebumps

Didn't see it just now, but the former singer at UT was George Bitzas. He was great.

I've never brought this up before because it seems like it's in poor taste, and it's not like I could do any better- but the current guy is not the best. He's consistently sharp. Sorry.

Interestingly enough, on Saturday at Neyland NO ONE sang the national anthem.  Only the band played.  Idk if that's the new thing or maybe the guy was sick?

Our singer was "unavailable"

I like it better when it's just played and not sung. Its a very hard song to sing solo...It's why most screw it up.
