I have a solution Michigan Stadium has become too loud. Why doesnt everyone quiet down after first downs, touchdowns, defensive plays, etc. That way they can hear the band. Also, if they all sit down, maybe then they can see the band, too. I think eyeryone needs to quit being critical of the MMB. They were hands down better than the WMU band, better than the Notre Dame band, and will certainly be better than the EMU band on Saturday...they always are.
I wrote to Mary Sue about this...here's the response In other words, F You, we dont care what our alumni think. Its just like the halo. This will undoubtedly backfire on them. So we are stuck with Neil Diamond for now. ------------------------------------------------------------ Thank you for your feedback on the game day experience at Michigan Stadium. We work hard to create an environment that can be appreciated by all participants - players, students, alumni and fans. With more than 100,000 people, it is difficult to craft an experience that satisfies everyone's unique interests and as such we do our best and realize that we will never hit the mark for all 100,000 plus in the stadium. We'll continue to work on all elements that contribute to a Michigan football game. We appreciate your time and consideration in offering your thoughts. All the Best and Go Blue! -----Original Message----- From: Riordan, Mark Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 10:10 AM To: Bodnar, Martin Subject: FW: Piped in music at Michigan Stadium -----Original Message----- From: Michigan Athletics Media Relations Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 10:07 AM To: Riordan, Mark Subject: FW: Piped in music at Michigan Stadium ________________________________________ Sent: Sunday, September 06, 2009 7:11 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Piped in music at Michigan Stadium Please stop this. As someone who attends every home game, as well as a Michigan Band alumni, I am ashamed and embarrassed of this. We have the nation's best marching band....LET THEM PLAY!!! This is what makes our football experience unique. This is why I drive from Chicago every game, to experience the best college atmosphere in the country. Not to hear Neil Diamond on the loud speakers. Thank you for your understanding.
