I concur wholeheartedly with DougR's opening post. The Star Spangled Banner has been mangled too many times. (Although Hendrix's version at Woodstock was amazing)

Two other pet peeves are people at singarounds who insist on joining in on songs to which they know neither the words, chords nor timing, and singer-songwriters who write songs with unsingable choruses which they then try to get the audience to sing. Cringemaking.
