Count me in favor of the fight song. One tradition I'd love to see brought back.

I suggest "Add It Up" by the Violent femmes. milwaukee band, good tune for the outro part.

"day after day, i get angry and I will say, but the day is in my sight when I take a bow and say good night"

not the "why can't i get just one unnatural carnal knowledge" part

You've got to be kidding. What about a song that has come out during the lifetime of the current MU students?

Yeah, I say "ring out" slow to fast. Nothing against AC/DC of course, but let the band play.

One vote for Thunderstruck.

Wow, it really must be "What I dislike most about Marquette Basketball Week". Somehow I forgot to mark it down on my calendar. Big Heads, National Anthem, and now Thunderstruck.

Ok, I've got mine...games on ESPNU. I can only get them at the sports bar, so I don't get sound. MU should boycott & forfeit any games placed on ESPNU - that'll fix em!

Screw it. Just play "Hell's Bells."

Slow fight song at the start of the game, Thunderstruck to start the second half

Beastie's "Sabotage"

This should be our game opener:

Hell's Bells is the most bad as$ intro in all of MLB for Trevor Hoffman. I wouldn't mind a switch from Thunderstruck to Hell's Bells.

Also it was originally by Slade. Anyway, that song is really old but I like it better than Thunderstruck. Haven't been to a game in a while but don't they still do "Where the Streets Have No Name" for intros?

Slade's awesome, one of the best uk bands ever. Hi Ho Silver lining.

We come out to start the second half to Hells Bells a decent amount.

I like Thunderstruck because you can play a drinking game to it. Its either a circle drinking game or just drink every time they say "Thun-dah!"

When I played in band I used to like playing the slow to fast Ring out. I wish we used thunderstruck and the slow to fast.

Also it's too bad that for all the money students are paying now to go to MU, they can't get a slow clap timed right

Can we at least agree that the arena mix of 7 nation army is awesome?

Anyone ever hear "River" - Ennio Morricone (Mission Soundtrack) ???

Awesome build up with powerful chanting......movie about Jesuits with DeNiro......Marquette used it in commercials 20 some years ago.....

That is my DREAM song

The intro to 'Thunderstruck' is one of the great riffs of all time. But, brink back tradition.

shaquilvaine · « **Reply #44 on:** January 28, 2010, 09:01:33 PM »

love the 7 nation army remix... wish we could do it as well as Penn State fans do.

I like Thunderstruck, but I also like this idea. Anyone got a youtube link to the slow fight song vid?
