The new Oregon Power Ballad, sung by former Skid Row frontman
Sebastian Bach, was first performed on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon". The song has Oregon-specific lyrics that mention the Willamette River, coach Chip Kelly and the team's much-talked-about spread offense. More specifically the song names "The Steelhead on Pearl" as a spot to cheer on the team. The video playing behind Bach pans up the Pearl St. intersection sign and the neon Steelhead sign at the corner of 5th and Pearl.
