I disagree.
Seven Nation Army chant
Maybe we should build a sound wall along the sides of the alumni section. Pipe in the Phantom of the Opera vinyl to that specific area on key plays. I'm sure once that needle hits the record that section might actually prove useful...

Forward down the field,
A charging team that will not yield.
And when the blue and silver wave,
Stand and cheer the brave.
Rah, Rah, Rah.
Go hard, win the game.
With honor you will keep your fame.
Down the field and gain,
A Lion victory!

A lot of fanbases sing this song now.
Most notably, Buckeye fans have made it a cheer: "OOooh, Oh-Oh-Oh Oh OOooh OOoh..."*
This culminated in what I think was the worst moment in piped-in music history: tens of thousands of Ohio State fans in Michigan Stadium singing "O O O O O O O" right along with our own friggin' loudspeakers!
---------------------------------
* I first heard it while walking by a group of Buck-fards before last year's game. I turned to Misopogal and quipped, loudly, "Hey look, they learned a vowel!" which earned me some nasty looks and a retort which I think was "Hey, look, they can't play football!"

Complaining about RAWK music has grown far more unbearable than the RAWK music itself.

and the White Stripes are from Michigan to boot.
If you want to play it, have fun and play it. Don't not play it just because some other school plays it sometimes.
Hell, I think we should play Hang on Sloopy (a great 60's bubblegum song) at all our games and really piss off OSU.

I think the piped-in music needs to stay. No offense to the MMB. In addition to Seven Nation Army, I think the crowd chant portion of OMG by Usher is a great choice. I can't embed but check out Youtube for Usher's OMG and listen to about the :45 to 1:00 section. I can see the crowd getting into that very easily.
Here's a lame try at embedding by an old guy

This isn't an NFL game. The atmosphere does not require any piped-in music. It's unnecessary, and i'd compare it to the no advertisement rule...except piped-in music doesn't generate any revenue.
Neg bang me all you want. We're all going to be losing our points soon anyway. The acoustics of the stadium does not help our band. Maybe with the design changes everyone in the stadium will be able to hear the band but I sincerely doubt it and I will continue to push for the band to continue their current but reduced role and pipe in music that appeals to more people than they do.
How do you expect the place to get loud? Last year was the loudest it's ever been and the only way we could get almost everyone to participate was to pipe in some music. Face it, most people aren't going to do it on their own.
"Ohio is like a giant turd that Michigan just can't pinch off"
How is it that a Michigan fan doesn't understand that the options are not limited to silence or jock jamz? We can record various beats, as I mentioned elsewhere on this thread. Those original beats can be piped in. We can play non jock jamz, etc. We are Michigan. . .not Michigan state or the Toledo mudhens. We landed on the fucking moon; we can do better than this garbage.
"Ohio is like a giant turd that Michigan just can't pinch off"
...piped in RAWK music it should be Detroit/Ann Arbor music (Detroit/A2 artists OR songs with Detroit in the words) that will appeal to the students AND the alumni (minus the blue hairs) -- and it has to literally rock (or whatever the equivalent is for Hip-Hop/whatever the right term is) -- and it has to be original so that it becomes associated with Michigan -- and it has to be fairly recognizable by a large part of the crowd -- and oh, did I say, it has to rock so that people sing/chant/yell really loudly.
It sucks that Seven Nation Army is taken by PSU, but it is. It's time to find our own Seven Nation Army.

I just got a great idea! Who wouldn't want to jam out to Superstition at the Big House?!
"Ohio is like a giant turd that Michigan just can't pinch off"


Mine is fully proportional...at least to my brain. Everyone else might not understand when I start chanting drunken nonsense, but it makes perfect sense to me.
Nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes...and fuck Ohio.
