I wanna know from a band member why the Alma Mater wasn't played.


Due to crowd control issues, Athletics didn't want the band playing with the field covered with people.

Also, what would happen if the Drum Major had just instructed them to play NECK while students were on the field????? She'd have lost her job????


What happens to most people when they use blatant insubordination toward their boss?

I brought this up yesterday, and this is silly. The band played Hey Baby several minutes after I had given up on them playing the Alma Mater. I had walked back down to the South endzone by that time. The Alma Mater had plenty of time to be played before the "cease and desist" order was given.

Cause that rowdy arse song would have sent the crowd into a rage?? WTF? What could calm 3000 people on the field down more than the alma mater?
