Yeah/ What I was thinking was the Army Band, the Navy Band, the Marine Band. the Air Force Band. We pay those truly master musicians to play some of the best music ever.

None of these ear-squiggly dystopian National Anthem deconstructors that you find now at every ball game. Hurts to listen to them and hate what they do to sweet melodies.

No rap, no punk, no heavy metal, no rockabilly treatment of religious songs, please!

I like to be proud of my country, not ashamed of it.
