Thread: In Search of Band Eye Coordination with the PA system

    The PA announcer is Fast Eddie who pretty much runs the radio station, Big 102. He does mornings with Rene Rivette. He's a really good guy. Send him an email or give him a call. I'm sure he would listen to any complaint you may have. However, I think it's out of his hands.

    I think the PA guy is big Tuna, the same person that does the basketball games

    Lets just be real for a minute all us ole farts grew up listening to the POA so we enjoy this ole type of music. None of us listen to the type of music that's played at CF but our grandkids and the students do. So do we get our way and complain about no young or student participation at games or do we compromise. Those are our only choices but we cant have it both ways. My General use to always start his briefs with If you don't like change you wont like this.

    Outside of halftime, no one comes for the music, no one stays for the music.

    Because of that I would make the experience as Louisiana cULturally unique as possible.

    This!!! Our little crowd always ask why they don’t play more Cajun/creole music. Why not take full advantage of our cULture? If I remember correctly that was a big suggestion in the Alden report. Get some zydeco going and get the crowd up on its feet. Seems so simple, and not sure why no one at UL seems to understand that.

    You right...this area is full of Grammy noms and winners. Many went to UL or involved with music department...Have Sweet Cecilia sing the National Anthem, instead of that f'ing rave music, throw in some Sonny Landreth, bring in a zydeco group to work up a halftime show with the POA. But Nooooo...cant think out of the box or spend the $ to do it?...How much did the singing Bob Ross cost? Once was cool, twice was a bore?

    At App, they video board Luke Combs and Eric Church with nearly every break....it ain't that difficult to do....(both are former students there)

    And please, stop with the fake check/RCAF presentations...so phoney...

    so what are his next steps, especially considering this is not the first time these issues have come up...

    Is it going to be enough this time to just say those issues (as has happened in the past)
    Have been taken care of without explaining how and why it happened as well as the steps he took to fix it...if it can be fixed.
    The music is fine, it’s just the volume of the PA announcer. Concessions are 0-2 so far this season. Soccer against LSU was putrid and football.

    Agree on the music. That was from student surveys of why they attend games. You want them there. You cater to there wants. If they show up like they did Saturday, play whatever makes them happy.
