Big & Rich Introduced as “Gender-Bending Superstars” Before Singing the National Anthem at Predators Game

Before performing the national anthem at the Nashville Predators playoff game on April 10, Big & Rich got a descriptive introduction.

Check out the intro below, as well as Big & Rich’s anthem performance.
