Holy cow! Carlos Santana rocks the anthem!

I'm watching game 2 of the NBA finals and none other than Carlos Santana played the National Anthem. He's Hispanic, of course, and he rocked it out. Wonder if the trumpites approved of his version? Somehow I doubt it.

He divorced his wife and married Cindy a few years ago. She's one hell of a drummer to say the very least!

The first time was in 1972. I was sweet 16 at that time.

He was playing at a junior college that was fairly close to where I was living at that time in the East Bay of San Francisco.

I remember it took him awhile on that occasion to get on stage that night. Rumors of everything as to "why" that night.

I'm sure you'll enjoy the show lucky you!

I love it !

It makes me reconsidering my position about creating a facebook or twitter account.

I'll be more effective at preaching the good word on this side of the Atlantic.

We too, hate Trump. I would be happy to help, as modest as my help may be.
