New Pre-Kickoff song

Unread post by ComebackShack » Wed Jul 12, 2017 3:25 pm

Since we will have a new entertainment system, I think having a song we play leading up to kickoff and that becoming our song, would be really cool. The perfect song is: Ecstasy of Gold.

We could also play it right before the players come out and have them come out as the climax of the song happens. It lets people know we are coming. Something the fans will know "the mountaineers are about to come out"

No one uses it, it builds, we are black and GOLD, and gold is often found in our hills. Thoughts? Can we get Doug Gillin this suggestion?

Too long of a build up, and the song is already entrenched in the popular memory of the American West.

This is more appropriate IMO

I would hope we pick the most obnoxious song possible just to make all the old heads mad

I would love for this to play before the guys ran out, with the stomp, clap rhythm all of Kidd Brewer could add to the affect.

Find this song and listen to it with the bass. Imagine the new video board showing highlights, the inflatable helmet rocking, the song ending and Sean Connery saying Welcome to the Rock and 30,000 APP fans going out of their minds. I'm telling you this works!!!! You can edit the middle minute out. It gets people fired up.

300 Violins is the song

Must be something about the dog days of summer that makes people want to discuss this topic. :-)

It'd be cool if Luke Combs decided to make a song for us to use

Was just reading this thread when "For Those About to Rock" came on Sirius. Would be another good choice with the fans saluting the players as they entered the field. A lot of appropriate lines in the song and I don't know of anyone else using the song.

We don't slide at Appalachian State. It's a sign of weakness.

If we stray from the STUPID Sean Connery clip from that ancient Nicholas Cage movie the members of this board will start a riot.

I was going to suggest that, but offered up another Queen song thinking I would get a laugh, but no one thought it was funny....

If you want the players to win, play Tee Grizzly:

(Play @ 1:30 loud enough and I might run onto the field and hit someone)
