Is LSU the only school to use a pep band at regular season basketball games?

I watch these other big games on tv and all I hear is piped in music. Seems to work for the crowd.

It's the only one that plays during every break in play, for sure.

This is something I've been saying forever. They treat basketball games like it's some showcase for the band. I hate it.

They should only play at the under timeouts. Any time we force the other team to call a TO, pipe in the music.

LSU completes double digit comeback and takes lead. Opposing coach timeout. Fans hopping, players jacked....


Strike up "hey baby"

They can even play some during pregame, but that nonsense they do before the game on the court needs to stop.

The game this season when there was no band was dead . I much prefer a live band to some of the crap they pipe in at the Pelicans games.

That's not how a basketball arena operates. Go look at the best arenas in basketball and tell me how many feature bands for a majority of the game.

So: Piped in music at baskeball games = good.
Piped in music at football games = bad.

1. Everyone has a pep band you twat. Even the Green Bay women's basketball team shipped some band nerds over

2. Our band always plays cringey shite and a boner-killer version of "halftime," because any time they actually have a good arrangement that's fun to listen to the student section throws a big tiger dick on it and gets the shite banned.

3. That pregame shite sucks.

Carolina has a band that plays during home games. Plays during breaks.

I hate when we win exciting games like we did yesterday. It was thrilling, tense, and the biggest game of the season.

So of course it gives me absolutely nothing to bitch about. I can't be happy if I don't have something to bitch about dammit!! RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE THE BAND GRRRRRR.

So now you people are bitching that you want more piped in music? So piped in music is ok a the PMAC but bad at Tiger Stadium?

We should go back to the Shaq era style. No piped in music at all, even for player intros. The bad played in between each player being introduced. While we are at it. Get rid of them ghetto style shorts. Go back to the nut huggers.

Yeah, they should play "Get Ready for This" and "Crazy Train" 38 times a game.

That would be so unique, and would really get me excited.
