You pretend punks. Get over yourselfs. Maybe he sung the anthem because he thought it would be a cool thing to look back on and say you did.
But I bet you guys are right. Hell, I heard Graffin PAYS TAXES!!! WHAT A HYPOCRITICAL SON OF A BITCH! HE IS SUPPORTING THE GOVERNMENT HE HATES!
Fucking clowns.

Well, it could be Roseanne again... Or an R&B bastardization like I heard Boyz 2 Men do one time. That shit will leave you begging for Greg whether you agree with the politics of it or not.

I'm not sure how he could do it any more justice then anyone else, if you're talking about his vocal ability.
he really doesn't have much of a range.

Just be happy they had someone sing it who could actually do it some justice. That's a brutal song to sing well, and you know damn well it was cool to hear Greg belt out the high notes.

Oh, sean, just yankin' your chain!

ok smartass well maybe he just did it for both teams, as hes lived in both places

i will never understand how people can watch baseball, a next to unwatachable sport (with some exception of movies) that eventually gets boring when you actually play it. At least football has people semi-beating the crap out of each other (hockey does this better).
although id probably go to one if BR or graffin performed there lols.

Scott From Canada:
You said it perfectly.

Punk rawk! Rawwwrr!! Fuck everything!
But never question why you're fucking it!
*ahem* Sarcasm obviously...
I think I *might* agree with some of the comments if, say, he was singing the national anthem at Dubya's inauguration celebration, but not an baseball game. But even then, that's his choice, and I don't base my entire opinion about all that is right in the world, and what is punk rock with good songs and messages, with what Mr. Graffin does and says.

I love the holier then thou attitude from some of the kids here. Greg sang for his home state baseball team.
Jesus people, it's just baseball. Lighten the fuck up will you?

(pssssst... sean.... he sang it for his home team, Milwaukee, Wisconsin...)

Now playing:

NO DIRECTION

Damn, 'leftists' are not what they used to be! Greg Graffin obviously follows the path of Dave Smalley and turns into a 'conservatice punk' now! I'm gonna burn all my Bad Religion albums immediately! Hell, at least Noam Chomsy still hates his fatherland.

Oh, wait a minute...

its an 'atrocity' to sing the national anthem of this country? why? because FUCK THE GOVERNMENT, is that why? he has a distaste for many politicians, like i do, but i never thought that means he hates his home country. The national anthem is a baseball tradition over 100 years old and he sang it for his home team (new york). so grow up, its not a big fucking deal.

"...anti-government was the hot thing these days." ??? Hot thing??? These days???

I am really dissapointed in Greg. Never thought he would commit such an atrocity. If I never heard of BR before and I was planing on getting in to them, I would probably stop just because of this. Shame

Fuck patriotism. This is one of the main war motives along with religion and money.
For what Greg have writen for almost 30 years, this sounds pretty lame.

I agree with martin!

A good patriot loves his country all the time and his government when they deserve it.

am i the only one who finds this a little sketchy ethically? i thought anti-government was the hot thing these days.
and dont give me that "you can be anti-government but still patriotic" bullshit now. i think thats weird coming from somebody who released "TEsf" and "american jesus".

God dammit, this was even on at my work I think and I missed it somehow

Milwaukee Win 4-2
By the Way!
Graffin is irrevelant in Brewers's victory!

Haha OUCH for NY Mets!

Well, if it's the NY Mets playing, then you KNOW that no one taped it.

Zing? I don't know, I don't follow baseball.

The one time that the national anthem would have been remotely interesting and I missed it, bah!

Not much, but I figured it's worth it if there's a chance of another great Graffin live being posted up :3.
