Bring Back Garry Glitter

you do realize at one point there were >10 teams that played that song after a goal. there are some that still do. i agree with most of the things you say but by emphasizing lack of uniqueness of the current song you only undermine your argument.

It was a league wide decision to stop supporting gary glitter. Not just the stars. Bringing back a goal song that 15 other teams used to replace the new one that 15 other teams use because the stars are a mediocre team is silly.

Could they use a new song? Yes, absolutely. But gary glitter is not the answer.

really makes it difficult to take anything you said seriously.

That, and as everyone else has said, R&R Part 2 was not unique in the slightest. Even less unique than what we have now.

It is a bit of an awkward dance. Most people aren’t into the hockey karaoke, and it takes too long for the “let’s go stars” chant to kick in. The melody is a little to click your heels happy and makes me think we are all hopping off the partridge family bus.

On the other end, the game intro although moody an artsy, is a bit of a downer. It reminds me of that Johnny Cash video where he looks like he has a foot in the grave and it is a thre minute chore.

Maybe I need to watch more beer commercials. I’m more familiar with hearing thin lizzy, BTO, and free with some organ music – which is great BTW. But, I’m sure beer commercials have changed too. I like some of the harder rock/metal they play at the games, but when the team isn t up to the challenge it is more of a torture tactic.

In an effort to dump out the rest of my “Monday’s,” I wouldnt shed a tear if the “how much time is left,” and “who cares” crowd put on white sport coats and banged the glass at anoher arena. I sit in the “visitors” section and have to here “I do” after each goal.

Dont worry folks, we get bobble head night this week! :D

But i agree that the current goal music is absolute cack. I don’t understand why no one in the stars’ game day setup could find a song that was not being used by another team, it smacks of complacency to me

But at least it isn’t gary glitter. R&R 2 was my least favorite thing about going to a game and the worst part about putting up 10 on the Rangers a few years back. I didn’t know he was a pedophile. I thought he might be into beastiality since his music sucks donkey balls.

But I do think they need a uniquely Dallas goal song. They really should get the guys from Rivethead to write them one, they already have one song, one of the many songs they use when they go on the power play.

I have been a STH for the last 7 years, and I was completely on board with ditching RRP2. I don’t mind the new song, I think with some time the “Lets Go Stars” line could catch on. Its too early to judge if it works or not, especially with the attendance issues. It may be a whole different vibe with a full building. I agree completely with the Bill O “one minute” comment. i don’t know why he was told to change, but its terrible and wish he would go back to the old call. The overall game presentation has gone horribly down hill, IMHO. Kiss Cam sucks. I miss all the old movie clips they would play based on game situations. Now all we get is pop 40 dance music as the ice girls dance. Is this the NHL or NBA? The current presentation does not facilitate a good HOCKEY atmosphere.
