Not playing a PRS, but I'm excited to share this...

I'm still a PRS guy at heart, but I hope my Charvel won't offend...

 

[Tom Bradovich]

Very nice!

 

[Alnus Rubra]

Nice chops, looks like you had fun.

 

[bodia]

Well done!

 

[JasonE]

Nice! I was glad to hear that you didn't put a ton of extra notes in it like many other guitar players have done.

 

[dmatthews]

Nicely done mate!

Nah, threw in a little sauce at the beginning and end, but I can literally hear the crowd singing along, so I can't play around too much with the main melody...

 

[Shreve]

Nicely done!!

 

[veinbuster]

Nice!

 

[László]

I probably can't play happy birthday that well!

 

[11top]

Good job Brian.

 

[Senor Verde]

Super cool man!

 

[DreamTheaterRules]

IMHO, you didn't over do it though. I was referring to how many renditions of this I have heard with tons of added soloing all the way through it. Yours was well done.

Whenever I'm invited to do the anthem, I go in knowing full well that it ain't about me, so I play accordingly.

Smart - that song is special and you did a fine job respecting it while still adding a bit of your own flavor. That's the way it should be done. Of course, JMO

 

[Daryl Jones]

Nicely done! I heard a group called Mahogany Rush do a rendition of that a long time ago as an opening act for Nazareth (I think, was about a hundred years ago) and they really juiced it up, and personally I think they blew it completely.

Looks like the Durham Bulls.

Durham Bulls. They have anthem auditions before each season. I first got chosen back in 2015, been doing it once or twice a year (sometimes more if they make the playoffs) for them ever since.
