      The critiques are not hate. this country is going down the toilet because everyone has all this ego and think their mediocrity is just incredible. It was a mediocre performance that was stiff, off tempo and pretty much a waste of energy. These kids must not get out much to be so impressed by this. Go look at Mike Shrieves drum performance at Woodstock at age 19-that was incredible.

If Anything this USA Nation 🇺🇲 Needs More Such Showing Of Such Patriotism With Respect And Honor Shown In This Particular CZcams Video ! ! !
      I'm a professional musician gearhead and Ex Air Force USA Military Service 🇺🇲, and I played the National Anthem in various compositions/arrangements in/at various settings and venues indoors and outdoors events for 45+ years with no known descention responded but just the opposite, so YES, all the more my Approval Of This Particular CZcams Video of the playing of the Sacred USA National Anthem ! ! !

    He did not do bad. It’s arguably harder to play slow and precisely in front of a crowd than it is to sweep pick or “shred” a bunch of notes. He obviously isn’t jimmy hendrix but he did a good job and only fucked up on that one harmonic. It was cool and props to the school for putting that on
