Inspired by Demarious's thread about hating techno, here's our current opener:

..with a few updates, and we've been opening to this since around 2003ish.

This thread is to post audio or youtube clips of songs you might prefer to see our opener set to. The way to win this thread is to NOT post ACDC or Metallica other crap we've all heard, but rather post stuff that's more obscure that we could set the opener to that would get the students jumping up and down as much as the current song.

Here's two I've always thought would be great:

"Backyard Dog - Baddest Ruffest"

"Primus - Here Come The Bastards"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zbz8Dupz0Z4
 
Personally, I think this song is a perfect, why mess with success? The player introductions video is the one to rotate the song with.
 
I don't mind it either, honestly, but I thought it might be fun to share some alternates that aren't "Dude, we should play Enter Sandman.."
 
Definitely the original Safety Dance by Men Without Hats:

We should definitely not do that. Take it from someone who watched Billy Wagner shamelessly come out to that despite its obvious ownership by his cross town rival...we don't want to be stealing that from VT.
 
I don't really like "Put On" but I figure given last year's game in Athens, that may be an appropriate song to play.
 
How do you embed youtube videos on Stingtalk, Beestorm?
 
Pfft. I'd rather have Slick Rick than LL Cool J ..

But I really don't think most rap songs have the uptempo you want.


Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood (dancehall remix)

Sounds like Nickelback or Stone Temple Pilots or any of the gajillion other Pearl Jam ripoff grunge whiny bands of the last decade and a half, to me.
