I like to nitpick...

I actually noticed recently we are starting to enter an era where the 60s artists are starting to be forgotten. Hendrix should be more of a cultural icon for a lot of reasons but for whatever reason he is really fading from memory.

If I remember correctly, his crazy sister is overly protective of his legacy and won’t allow his music in other media. There’s never been a good biopic about him because they can’t get the rights to the music. There have been attempts, including one with Andre 3000 as Jimi, but it just doesn’t work without the music.

Also the flames coming out of the tunnel are hella gay.

It reminds me of some shitty “art” you might come across at BM.

Is there anything worse than a music doc where they don't have the rights to the music?

I remember briefly in college they were selling Hendrix vodka, which was below bottom shelf vodka, but in a cool giant purple bottle. I think it was his brother doing it without permission. A lot of the artists in the 60s time frame need to the Jordan ESPN doc series/Bob Dylan biopic thing to get themselves back in the cultural frame before they disappear for at least a little while again. Hendrix was way ahead of his time and someone who is a critical darling like Frank Ocean's music actually has a lot of similarities. I've moved to thinking Eddie Van Halen is the greatest guitarist of all time though.

So grumpy this morning yella, was someone standing in front of you all game this weekend?

People forget when the greatest rock music was being recorded, it was marching band only in Husky Stadium.
Rock music in stadiums is an NFL thing. Let the marching band play.

I'll opine on the entrance when I show up for Ohio
That said, I do think that putting "history" in as part of the intro is important. Don't forget that you're hosting recruits for these games and part of the story/messaging that you're making to them is that Warshington is historically a very very good program.
There is a right and wrong way to do that though

Chuck Berry
Hendrix
Eddie VH
That's your Mt Rushmore right there. The only debate is who gets the last spot.
