Hey all!

Elliott is singing the N/A on Tuesday at the NBA play-off game featuring the Lakers and their opponent.

E just tweeted that he's also been offered to sing the N/A for another NBA play-off game in Orlando, either game 5 or 7. Stay tuned!!

SK8888, the LA game is Wednesday night :)

HI Yall, I hope they televise Elliott singin the Anthem at both Play Off games!!!! Elliott always sings the anthem best in the world!!!!

:headsmack: Thanks HW. :>))

Here's E's Tweet:
-----------------

"Can't wait 2 sing the anthem for game 2 on wed nite at staples center!!...go lake show!!!..I'll also b in the house for game 1 too baby!"

He's getting quite the rep as a national anthem singer, lol.

HI Yall, Elliott Yamin sings National Anthem at Staples Center Wed. May 19, 2010 for L.A. Lakers vs. Phoenix Suns play - off game, 6 PM P.S.T. & 9 E. S. T. Elliott's now begining to become an official National Anthem singer! I hope they have him on TV!!!!

HI Yall, The NBA Playoffs are televised on TNT Network!!!! Will or will not Elliott singing the Anthem be televised? We'll just have to watch Wednsday night to see. Keep you fingers crossed like YAMIN it!!!!

HI Yall, A night out with your Dad. Your Dads first NBA game & our Funky White Boy just out spendin time with his Dad. The most incredible thing in the world like YAMIN it!!!! OH YEAH!!!!

I hope they show it but they rarely televise National Anthem in a conference finals game, The only time I could remember them televising it is in the Finals round.

HI Yall, Yes tonight in game 1 of the playoffs they didn't show anyone singin the Anthem on TV. They never ever give Elliott the ragatition he deserves!!!!

HI Yall, They did show celebrities that were at the game Jack Nicolson, Sly {Rocky}, Dustin Hoffman, but no Elliott Yamin.

I do wish that the anthem was televised; Taylor Hicks sang the anthem at last week's Cavaliers vs Celtics game 5. Some nice photos came from the appearance, but TNT didn't show the anthem. Even worse, the Cavaliers lost game 5 in Cleveland. Don't expect the poor anthem singer will be invited back!

Hopefully there will be Yamin fans in the crowd in L.A. and at least we'll get youtube video of Elliott's performance. I'd love to hear it.

I remembered that Nanab and myself were able to hear Elliott sing the N/A when Elliott sang it at Dodger Stadium, (they were playing the SF Giants,) because it was carried over the Giants SF radio station.

With a little checking, I found that KLAC is the LA radio station carrying Laker games. If you click on the link below, and then scroll down to the bottom of the page, there's a "listen live" option.

I'll check for the Phoenix station, and post too. We should at least be able to hear Elliott sing, and that's pretty amazing too!

so thrilled for Elliott;) We know you will knock it out of the park..or dribble it out..foul shoot it out, 3 point it out? He, he...GOOD LUCK, and have a blast!

I still don't see the Laker game coming up on the schedule for later tonight. :>((

Thx to Nan's post, the Lakers site is showing ESPN radio coverage and a local station in Phoenix. I can't quite make out the call letters:

Here is the link that was posted in the news thread:

Okay, I just checked the Phoenix radio station listed, and they're scheduled to cover the Diamondbacks vs. SF Giants, and ESPN radio web site says it "rarely" is allowed to broadcast NBA games LIVE.

I think it's TNT or nothing.

Pre-game coverage starts on TNT in about 15 minutes.

Just saw E standing on the sideline wearing his plaid shirt over his laker shirt getting ready to sing....hope they show it.

just saw him right down front i believe he he has a plaid shirt on

that was him on the floor @ Staples Center...YAY!!!!! Wearing the plaid shirt with his aviators on! Right On!!!

Wouldja believe I rewound the DVR and recorded that part with him on it? Sad, but true!!!

It really bites that they didn't show him singing the N/A. Oh well, par for the course. :protest:

I saw him too, I wonder who he's sitting with?

I was looking awfully hard but I don't think I saw him. I thought there were a couple of sightings that I thought could have been him but was never 100% sure. I saw a blue plaid shirt and the eyewear. Maybe I did see him then. I wonder if he got to meet Kobe?

WOW!!! Thanks rooney for the find. Amazing as usual.

You're welcome Nickey, but I can't take credit for the find. An Elliott fan on another site posted it.

Well, thank you for seeing it and bringing it to the :chloestrain:

Thanks rooney.
It was lovely.
He's getting really used to singing this, isn't he.
I know he was SOOO excited to be doing it for the Lakers.

Thanks Rooney.

Since they had other NA videos to the side, I watched a few of them. Then I listened to Elliott's again. :)

HI Yall, You get what you get & it is what it is, but in the video I wish they would of showed Elliott up close. It look like the person recording the anthem was sitting very high up. My brutha Elliott did sound incredible & brilliant as always!!!! The audio was Emazin!!!! Elliotts voice sounded beautiful as it filled the Staple Center!!!! What more could you ask for a great team the Lakers & a great singer!!!! In the pics I saw Elliotts lookin incredible as always like YAMIN it for life sportin his Lakers tshirt!!!! Thank you very much for finding this video! I know everybody in the Etrain Family cares like YAMIN it for life!!!! I don't know if I will ever stop listening to Elliott sing the anthem ever again!!!! I think Elliott is the greatest Anthem singer in the world!!!! Having Elliott representing our country is "DA BOMB" baby!!!! OH HEAH!!!!

He sounds great as usual! And there were some some famous people there who were lucky to be able to see and hear him (Jack Nicholson, etc.)

For a crowd that large and enthusiastic, you could hear a pin drop for awhile there.

Very nice.

Thanks Rooney for the link.
