  • Jim Cornelison

    Any Blackhawks fan know who he is. He only does Hawks games now as far as I know, how bout getting him to do the Natl. Anthem vs. ISU next year!?!?! (Maybe make it an annual thing???) I'm sure the BU alums would donate whatever they needed to get him down if he could come down.

    ... At the end, of the storm, there's a golden sky. And the sweet silver song of the lark. Walk on, through the wind, walk on, through the rain, though your dreams be tossed, and blown. Walk on, Walk on with hope in your hearts, and you'll never walk alone!

      I love the applause thing. Can we start doing that, or is that reserved for the Hawks?

        Great baritone voice. He is a classically trained opera singer, who retired fromperforming opera several years ago and is now a real estate salesman in Chicago.

        Article from the Chicago Tribune yesterday about Jim Cornelison-


        and an interview with him- the tradition of cheering through the anthem began in 1985, and Cornelison started singing in 1995.-
        Jim Cornelison performs the Star Spangled Banner at the United Center before each Chicago Blackhawks game. He took some time out to answer a few questions ...


        Example of his singing of the national anthem as the crowd goes crazy prior to a game last week against the Flyers-

          The cheering thing stared by the Hawks, but there's nothing that says that we can't adapt it for that one game! Heck, maybe we could get him to sing "The Bradley Loyalty Song" or whatever they're calling the Fight song now during a timeout. I know my parents think it's disrespectful, but I think it's a HUGE show of patriotism. Course, at the same time, I don't want to make it too common by copying off the Hawks and inspiring more to do it.

            so, is anyone connected enough to make this happen if we all like it as the discussion progresses?

                  I hate the applause thing. I know it is not done that way, but it seems really rude to me.

                    It's just a different way for patriotic Americans to show their pride and appreciation for the men and women in our military who protect our freedoms.

                      In person, it is a pretty moving experience.

                      Wayne Messmer sings the National Anthem at Chicago Stadium during the '91 NHL All-Star game, days after the U.S. went into Iraq at the start of the Gulf War....

                        so, applause or not, I really just want him to come sing a National Anthem at Carver (preferably against Il. State). Can we do anything to get him down here?

                            I would say don't knock it until you've experienced it.

                              He's been hired out to sing at weddings, so I think his price might be more reasonable than people think.
