While I'm not exactly Yngwie Malmsteen's biggest fan, I definitely respect his abilities as a guitarist. It's a pretty good version of the national anthem but every guitarist who does it is basically putting themselves up for comparison to Jimi Hendrix. While he's no Hendrix, there's no denying the impact he's had on guitar playing in the last three decades and I'd say he did a good job of putting his own stamp on the national anthem. Too bad there was no one in the seats to see it.
