There's no reason the soundtrack can't be unique. None.
That "clap your hands" thing makes me want to strangle people and, frankly, the Metallica 3rd down bit is sooooo played out.

I had no problem hearing them in 131, but I did find the PA to be uncomfortably loud as others have complained last year. I think the problem is the volume is not consistent throughout the stadium. My friends in 118 who eventually came over to 131 said that in 118 they couldn't hear the band at all and could barely hear the PA which I found hard to believe.
I think he tries to sync up to the music but does a terrible job of starting at the right time, resulting in having to awkwardly stretch it out.
Minor point, but they've never played the song in its entirety - it's 4:11 - but it was definitely shorter than normal.
That’s what I thought too…at first.
But when you read the bold and remember where he lives it makes sense.
The train horn does have some relevance to us, New Brunswick is the “Hub City”. It’s in the name. When walking around college Ave and I hear the train go by we say “touchdown Rutgers” .. I do like the horn. That said I don’t like the horn being held on for 10 seconds like it was this past Saturday. Needs to tone it back down a bit.
Love the song too, but one of us is hallucinating, as I only recall it being played once...we nerd the playlist, lol..
I considered that but his post sounded like it was from the perspective of someone at the game...
Parking lot people didn't turn their music down? Are you guys serious with this stuff?
Every single person bitching in this thread should be made to go the next BC home game.
RU folks accept your apologies in advance.
I was OK with the sound levels this week. Don't pay attention to the PA guy so don't care what he says.
Love the Drop Kick Murphy's by the way.
From Michigan. Will we be singing Mister Brightside? It's popular at Michigan and Boston College, but what a total buzzkill. The lyrics are about a man who is obsessed with a girl that is seeing another man, imagining what they’re doing behind closed doors.We did....an addition, not a replacement....but also a psu grad

I like the horn and it's certainly relevant at RU and for many, many fans who live close to train lines.
If you are too low brow to appreciate how the firework show was coordinated with the music, than you probably wouldn’t mind different competing music blaring in every corner of the parking lot at the same time. If you come to appreciate that there is an art to it, maybe it’ll change your mind.
Most don't give a crap what the song might be about, because it's simply a great, iconic rock and roll song.
The fireworks and the music were meant to be enjoyed inside the stadium. We left and watched from the Yellow lot. You can’t complain about people playing music in the lots post game.
Opinions vary. I think it is a weak song to get the stadium rocking. It's very lame, kind of like when RU used to play In the Air Tonight at night games. Just sucked the life out of the stadium, even though it is a great song.
Wisconsin and Virginia Tech have great songs in Jump Around and Enter Sandman to get the place rocking.
We had The Knight Pulse going for a while, which was a great pump up song, but maybe we got away from it because it originated in 2015. We even did it on Greg's introduction at the RAC in December 2019, and the place was rocking. The students love it. We should embrace it and make it ours. @MrsScrew ?? @AreYouNUTS ?? What do you think?
No, because the E D A power chord progression is awesome, no matter what song it's in.
Sorry dear. I'll take care of it right now.
Oh. What? I read that in your "yell at me" voice.
I doubt it. They have been playing that riff the last couple of years.
