Aaron Lewis, a.k.a the guy from Staind — you know, the band that had that song “It’s Been a While” in the early 2000s — found himself singing the national anthem at Game 5 of the World Series Sunday night.

Lewis was obviously really embarrassed about the whole thing, and posted an apology on his website:
