How did they all get there on time? Weird.RaceBannon said:

They don’t have to deal with traffic of 520 or big backups at the gate.AtomicDawg said: -
I’m warming up to “Smells Like Teen Spirit” with everyone turning on their phone flashlight with a 50% capacity crowd after the third quarter. It works.RaceBannon said: -

Seems appropriate to overpay for William Hung again.

I’d say this set us up ricely for 0-12 -

No, just a 3+ hour drive from wherever they live in the Mid Atlantic.MikeDamone said:

The best is “Neck.” And the band plays it and the students know the words. It was glorious to hear last Saturday. It made up for the embarrassing chin diapers that the entire band was wearing.JoeEDangerously said:Enter Sandman

Weird no one has ever suggested UW try something like this. I think it would be pretty cool!

Snarkasam aside, fuck that kicks the ass of anything on the radio the past 15 years. And I'm not even a Metallica guy (sorry @Swaye!).
I miss MUSIC, dammit.
Forever buried under Gilby's manboobs? -
I'm a bad fan and rarely attwnd so i dont deserve an opinion nor do i care. It's so obvious though.PostGameOrangeSlices said:UW should run out to Man in the Box or Rain When I Die

How about going against the grain and going old school with just the band. And fire McDavid and get someone better attuned

Interesting. Then I have no idea how people could possibly be in their seats by kickoff.vadawg said:

In the early 2000s I worked in Greensboro NC. VaTech had tons of weeknight games for some reason. I worked with a VaTech fan. He’d work all day and head to Blacksburg. Easily make the game and be back at work the next day. 2 1/2 hour drive. Always in his seat at game time. -
You don’t like pop/rock/rap blaring through the stadium after every play?DerekJohnson said:How about going against the grain and going old school with just the band. And fire McDavid and get someone better attuned
McDavid is such an uninspiring fuck. He looks like he’s half asleep most of the time. The band is boring and amateurish (still better than WSU, Oregon and OSU though. It’s a low bar). They are embarrassing. Fucking masked and social distanced last week was fitting. -
Yeah, coming from the DC or NVA area, you're doing the 81 which is full of Semi's, weekend travel, etc....takes a while. But I get your meaning, if you're passionate about your team get to the fucking game on time.MikeDamone said:

Hamilton also doesn’t play in their town.MikeDamone said:

I'm in favor of the idea but we need our own song so as to not copy VT.
How about Purple Haze by Jimi. It has a good base line, and the team can run out in purple smoke as they've done before.

I’d just like to add that I think the music has gotten too Seattle-specific. Hendrix, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Insert 90s Grunge Band. There should be a more regional approach to stadium music.
For example, Bing Crosby lived in Spokane. -
Need something that bangs. If you want to stick to Seattle, Them Bones would work. Otherwise, just melt faces. WGAF where the band is from

Ha ha shows how much I paid attention the last time I attended a game in person... maybe I was too busy trying to get the vodka out of the bag taped to my leg.MelloDawg said:

You're right that it doesn't need to be a Seattle specific band -- I was just trying to come up with a song that another school isn't already using.
There are some solid options by Rage Against The Machine.

Kenny G went to Garfield.

So far, the best gameday tradition is Captain Husky (Jr). The stadium is maybe 2/3 full when the team comes out, so there can’t be a pregame tr
Fun fact: when I was in the band, there was a running joke to walk up to someone and play the notes F, A, and G and then walk away.MikeDamone said:

I’d wager that doesn’t happen anymore. -

Just play For Whom the Bell Tolls (slow buildup cool) or Battery (melt faces off) by Metallica and call it a day.
