I forget what they were playing but once they were all on the track the broke into a few bars from The British Grenadiers. It was their way of saying, "This is who we are." It was powerful!

And when you think it is over, it grabs you to do it all over again at the 3:30 Mark. Absolutely fantastic!I just wish it was about something else. Not the best song to blast as I pull into the parking lot at work. less
