Robert Peterson and The Crusade in concert at Hughes Brothers Theatre in Branson, MO Saturday, Oct. 3, 2026. A solo performance of The Star-Spangled Banner will be performed as part of Robert's quest to reach 250 as a celebration of America's 250th anniversary!

As the frontman for the rock band Robert Peterson and The Crusade, I have officially launched an epic musical mission: to perform my live, solo electric guitar arrangement of the Star-Spangled Banner 250 times across the country by July 2027 to honor the 250th anniversary of the United States. This performance is currently slated to be #4 of 250!
