Re: With smoke on the water now allegedly dead, what would you like the new intro son
I like the Jack Trice narration idea. Would work well with some dramatic music.
The song shouldn't be anything you've ever heard on Lazer 103.3. This is a Division-1 football game, not the Bud tent at the state fair.
I started thinking about this and listening to some music tonight after CW tweet about them asking for songs.
Yeah there is nothing like a 3 min chant in unison that isn't creepy. You are also very wrong IMO and can take your music snobbery elsewhere. How are you going to pump anyone up with music that nobody has ever heard? This isn't just about pumping up the players on the team. Its about creating an experience for the fans that isn't comparable anywhere else. Get the fans going first and then get the players going as the come out. Keep the people wanting to come back even if we lose, because we will lose some.
I think a mash up with lots of songs is the best way to go. I would love to see them start with something like Ion by Tool. Start it out so its barely audible during other activities and let it build slowly (hear some rumbles in the distance). Then I really like the first 1:30 of the start of the Gunz for Hire-Storm Warning. Then do something like the first 15 secs of Ride the Lighting, and intro to Nirvana Territoral Pissings (Everybody get together and love one another, right now), intro song, and then soon after players run onto the field let them pick the last song each week.
