Good for them, I'd rather see them sing "the Star Spangled Banner" than the Backstreet Boys or Avril Lavigne. But I do have a bit of a problem with the whole honor. Are they truly deserving of it after being in existence for however long they've been a band? Have they been around for 5 years, maybe 10? Aren't there a few more famous musicians from Chicago to put on a pedestal?
The Grateful Dead first were given the honor in the Vince Welnick period!! They had been playing together for 28 years before they stepped onto the grass at Candlestick Park to sing the anthem at a San Fran Giants game.
