The Box doesn't need our band to fire up the crowd. Do you go to the Box often ? A band at a baseball game hasn't been done for a reason.

2) Baseball is so slow..with so many breaks..the band would ethier repeat itself to death..or just play a song once every 30 minutes.

I guess thats a legit issue. I wouldn't want it all the time, but maybe 3 or 4 times a season would be ok.

Once upon a time (I think two seasons ago?) they packed the entire band, in uniform, into the PMAC for a men's basketball game. It's because it was on a Saturday, so they were all in uniform anyway. They were up on the highest level of the PMAC and took up a whole half of the circle. It was TOTAL overkill.

Wait, where was I going with this story

Quit trying to turn baseball into football. Marching bands do not belong at a baseball game.

how jaded could you people possibility be. a band for two big games a year that played Chinese Bandits for web jems and fight song for homers and scores etc. would be awesome...if they dressed down it would not be that hot that is just stupid. people just wanting to hate on ideas just cause its not theres. you may not agree but to say it is a horrible idea is retarded
