Every night of the All State Choir conference at about 11pm, everyone comes out to the balconies of the 18 story Hyatt hotel to sing the National Anthem

Hi Lynne – met your lovely friend Kent (and his wife Diana) in Mexico and he told me to visit your blog! Enjoying your posts and book reviews…
How nice to hear this, LITK! Thanks for letting me know. Kent and Diana are wonderful peeps.
Hi Lynne, I had seen this and yep, I cried and do every time I see it. Absolutely beautiful.
Reblogged this on Writing Out Loud and commented:
This is worth a listen. Thanks Lynne. Listening out loud.
No, regrettably! I saw it on Ronni Bennett’s blog.
No tears, close, but a must reblog. Were you there?
Unbelievable. Now where are my Kleenex?
Exactly.
🙁
Thank you for sharing this. Seriously. It is such a wonderful tribute to this wonderful country that we live in 🙂
My pleasure, Thistlewood. I can’t stop watching it, and I choke up each time. Thanks for stopping by.
Beautiful, powerful, majestic, glorious. Thank you for sharing this clip, Lynne.

My pleasure, Russ.
Reblogged this on Waiting for the Karma Truck and commented:
Is it the acoustics? The spontaneity? The blending of voices? I don’t know – but I loved this.
Yup…tears – and chills.
Yep, I cried. Were you there?
No, I saw it while surfing around this morning. Watched it twice, cried both times, had to share. But I WISH I could have been there!
