[Dixielandjazz] Re: Hamming Up Our National Anthen

[willc]

Dear George:

You put it perfectly when, speaking of the celebrity singers who
bastardize the Star Spangled Banner at national events, you said: 

    " . . . the anthem is not her song but is
      our song, and is not to be hammed up and 
      showboated in such manner."

Thanks very much!
