Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 4866441, member: 1023"] I really prefer using the band, not the pumped in music. Have them playing much more. My comments on the quality were really related to that. The talent is wasted. I know it was at the XL but the perfect example was at the end of the Maine game on Saturday afternoon. UConn is up. Maine pulls the goalie and calls time out with 1-2 minutes to play. The crowd is pumped. Perfect time for Husky or that other fight song. But no. They pump in YMCA. Example #2. Game ends with UConn upsetting a top 10 opponent. Perfect time for the band to jump in with the fight song. But they pump in Brass Bonanza. I get it. Part of Hartford’s hockey history. But come on. The Whalers have now been gone longer than they were here. Play it if you want but not all the time. We are UConn, not the Whalers. Or if you insist on using it, let the band play it. I bet they could learn it. After all they are good musicians I have been told. :p [/QUOTE]
