Saw them at the 9:30 club in D.C. Remains the craziest concert I've ever been to.
I almost think the song would be better without the band. Obviously, you'd have to get everyone on board (much easier said than done), but think about soccer matches in Europe where you can hear the fans singing in the background with no instruments. So awesome. Could use the video board to keep everyone in sync.

What if the pep band recorded the soundtrack for a video? Kind of like the "Watch Us Play" videos...but better....much better. I know we're getting into Synch rights and stuff like that, but get whoever's teaching Legal Aspects of the Music Industry to work that out...class project!

Honestly, there's probably no reason this can't happen. We have 6 options to make it happen. Somebody call their manager now!

I could absolutely make it happen. Would take me about 1 hour max. It still will probably sound cheesy because of the no-drumset factor.

I think no drumset is the only real issue... You know everyone in 109 is gonna be on board as well as a lot of students. Put lyrics on the video board and you've got all the students and well anyone that feels like joining in. After the first game anyone that doesn't want to join in from then on is a terrorist, even if they've never been to a basketball game and never heard it before.
