This means any and all Tiger Band posts need to be put in the OT.


Tiger Band is at least affiliated with the school. Did one of the One Republic guys play sports for LSU, or play in the Tiger Band?

I'll be sure to request admin for every post in the TR that isn't explicitly about football.


Who said it had to be "explicitly about football"?

"The LSU Golden Band from Tigerland is honored to share the field this season at halftime with OneRepublic." said Roy King, LSU Director of Marching Bands, in the release. "Our students have begun their preparations for these historic performances in Tiger Stadium. I know that each and every one of our band members are excited to perform with such exceptional artists."


I fail to see how this isn't affiliated with the school.

Just admit that you, for some reason, don't like the band, and moved it because of your own bias.

What is the deal with capitalization in titles today?

OneRepublic gives it a whole different meaning that "One republic" - I thought it was a thread about some country screwing up.

Then there was the Oklahoma city thread that referred to "Oklahoma City," as if it was talking about OKC.

Dirt Nasty and Lil Dickie would own that stadium. Book them.

How about Cowboy Mouth or Better than Ezra doing some LSU stuff. I'd go for that.

It is affiliated with the school, but not LSU sports.

I couldn't give two-shits about One Republic but, since they are actually no longer playing at LSU during the halftime of a football game, then they no longer warrant being mentioned on The Rant.

Good-day, sir!

I guess I'm the only one who's disappointed about this. Do you guys really not know who OneRepublic is? They're not amazing but they're one of the most popular bands in the world and they have a couple really good songs

I'd never heard of this band until today and I was clealry missing nothing, and Tiger Stadium has been granted a reprieve. Utter shite.

Correct.

It has nothing to do with LSU sports.

so all LSU band threads are now OT material?
