torres Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 In my opinion it didn’t really work. The sound system isn’t sparkling at Hillsborough but given that fact the choices were poor. The aim (I think) with pre match music is too add to the atmosphere, to almost rouse the crowd before the main event. What they played before and what the team came out to did non of these in my opinion Possibly a good idea - just not executed to any great standard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulsar Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Music was good. Played 'Do you remember the first time' by Pulp What was the Def Leppard track? Can't remember what it was called? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FightLikeAGirl Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Definitely some Arctic Monkeys and Milburn in there as well. Was there any Human League? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_wells Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I couldn't hear what they played for the walk on music. Which kind of takes the point away. Our stadium sound system is a bit pants compared to others I've been to hear (Preston's is amazing btw) but it usually works fine for what gets chosen normally. Feels like they just need to play the uptempo ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pod9 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Monkeys Brianstorm was the run out song. Milburn Well Well Well for 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owltilidie Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Agree - thought “brainstorm” was an odd choice. So many better monkeys songs for walk out. Was “send in the boys” by milburn second half 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOwlsofDodworth Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Let's give it a chance, sometimes new ideas and projects take time to develop. Amazing that it happened so quickly after the thread went up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesowl Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 It was terrible. Way too loud and tinny. I agree with playing some local music but as the walk out music... no they haven’t cracked it. Waterfront should never be replaced. EVER. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early days but I think they need to be the 'distinctive" songs. Thought they'd have used Rev & the makers as one of the more instantly identifiable ones.

The sound system seemed worse than ever yesterday. The whole thing just seemed thrown together in 2 minutes. (Not like Wednesday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 It flopped. You need to set an atmosphere. A football match is a show down you need to put fear into the other team, you need tunes that can be sung chantedor even whistled to. Watched some sport on TV in last week. The sprint cycling ride off between two competitors they played High Noon which captured the mood perfectly. Even Chris Boardman commentator remarked on it. Some haunting tune that makes people look over their shoulder is an option. You could also go down the humourous route so when the likes of Steve Bruce steps on pitch you could have Roll Out the Barrel played. For neil Warnock you could have theme from Steptoe and Son. In other words more thought needs to be applied to selections and a choice made as to what type of atmosphere created. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
