Video Intro

Is it illegal to show the video they show in Hilton on the interweb? Would be cool if they had a collection of them all from the past, especially the past few years. Get on that cyclones.tv!

It's on the same youtube page as the player interviews.

The video is cool, but are we really still using Jock Jams from the '90's as background music? There has got to be music from this decade that we can use, right?

Heck no, we need to go back and get something from either the 70's like "(you really) rock me" by Nick Gilder...or the the 80's like "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor. :cool:
 
Ironic that it ends with Niang's reprimanded blown kiss to the fans. Don't do that, but we will use it in the intro video.
 
Why all the hate on Jock Jams. Yeah it is old but we have a good tradition with it. If it's not broke why fix it?
 
Jock Jams is lame, but I've noticed we are far from the only school that is still playing it.

My theory is the people in charge of the music are usually older and stadium music will forever be 10-20 years behind. They don't trust younger people to play music for a large audience, so we're stuck with ****** classic rock and Jock Jams.

I know, it's bold.
 
Jock Jams are terrible. If they only want beats, then take some newer techno beats at least.(And I hate techno!) I don't want words in the intro to be honest, let the crowd be the voice. Either way Jock Jams MUST GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have moved on from those 16bit rate midi files to a wonderful world of crystallized 24 bit audio.

If that Jock Jams song does not pump you up, then you are dead inside.

Or that a large percentage of the crowd is old, white, or both. You have people sitting 30 feet from the band who can't even clap in time to the fight song. Embarrassing. So, you need an exaggerated beat on the canned music to even have a chance of keeping people together. Selections from Jock Jams have that beat.
 
I like this years video a lot, gives me the chills.

However, I feel like they should play this at some point before each game in addition to the intro video. It would just ignite the atmosphere that is Hilton Coliseum.
