Okay, Andrew.....I'm going to be straight up with you.....

As helpful as you are to the collecting community.....

......and as nice as a guy as you are to many of us just because you're a genuine human being......I have to say this is one of the most "bitchin" renditions of the National Anthem I have EVER seen, and I think this is THE coolest post you have ever had.

Thanks for sharing that......that dude ROCKS on that invention!!!

I think most will like it and some won't but by the cheers of the crowds, that had to have been one of the most popular performers at Nationals Park.

Glenn Donnellan is actually a classically trained violinist and performs for the National Symphony Orchestra. He also happens to be a baseball fan and Nationals fan so for the 81 games and exhibition games we get about 75 games of the traditional singing of the National Anthem and then for the rest we get "different" like this violinist, the Washington Gay Men's Choir, a jazz trio, saxphonist, etc.

They are going to try to get Glenn Donnellan back again for an encore performance in September.

Here is the YouTube video:

I thought i would post these photos of this Guitar that my father and i made last year. It was the first one so it did not come out perfect, it did work, not anymore i accidentally cut one of the wires. It's made out of a 1960's Roberto Clemente store model bat.

I couldn't read the name, but it was a store model bat. I suggested he get one of those large Adam Dunn bats. LOL
