In Search of Band Eye Coordination with the PA system

I personally didn’t find the music was too loud. Just the PA.

How does the meme go?

"I don't listen to AC/DC much, but when I do, so do the neighbors."

If Aerosmith, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Rush, and (yes) AC/DC, would we be complaing about the volume?

Nobody is complaining about the volume of the music. It’s the PA Guy specifically. Add to his obnoxiousness and it’s pretty damn unbearable.

Save UL Football...shoot the PA guy...

yep. It might make the bleeding ears a little more enjoyable, but still not acceptable. And I agree that you have to scream into the ear of person next to you, just that there can be a conversation. That means its too loud.

Gee, that's twice you got it wrong. Fast hasn't done it for quite some time, now. It's Tuna.

And, the band hasn't played ESPN since Brian Taylor left.

Do you think that playing Zydeco music is going to get the stadium fired up? I just don't think its as big of an attraction as you do and its certainly not going to fire up a bunch of 18-21 year old football players.

"If the players are paying attention to the music, they are dropping passes and missing tackles."

They will do that naturally. Music does add excitement to the atmosphere.

Yep. Last year the music selections were much improved and more fitting for a football game (some metal mixed in)

Saturday we were back to rave music
