I hope this does not become a "thing" It was pretty bad watching people play their imaginary fiddles
I'll hang up listen
Can't believe no threads on this yet or did miss it

Most of the student's loved it, and people had fun. It fits the state and fits the conference. So many ant-fun complainers on this board...

Was that the supposed "anthem" song? I thought it might have been "Feelin' Good Again" by Robert Earl Keen. TV Announcer came back from break in second quarter saying the Ags were singing it, and i thought "that must be the Anthem song".

I could get on board w/ REK and Feelin' Good Again.

Maybe the conference, but not the State.

It's literally a song by a group named Alabama about people playing fiddles in Louisiana.

It's about playing in Texas. "Louisiana Man" in the lyrics is a song title.

If you're gonna play in Texas,
You gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot,
But not for "Louisiana man"

Agreed. The fans enjoyed it. This board is literally searching for things to complain about. It must really suck to walk in their shoes

I never understood the lyrics of that song

If you're gonna play in Texas, you better have a fiddle in the band;
A lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man


So which is it? Texas or Louisiana? And the band is called Alabama.

Oh...and I hate the DJ.

There used to be endless complaining about the Corps all sitting together and how that gave a bad image for the school. Personally imaginary fiddles more embarrassing than the old corps block

Some posters still aren't reading this. I had no idea how many Ags hate good country music.

I witnessed New Army having fun listening to an Old Army country song, and Texags can't handle it. I'm not sure if I should be surprised.

So if new army likes some old country song about fiddles, thats great and awesome. If new army likes kanye or something from the 2000s, that's bad.

Got it.

I just like songs that mention places I've been to or lived in or heard of so I can cheer when they say those words.
You should see me go nuts at a Gary P. Nunn show.

Out of all the bad Kyle Field additions, This was actually fun and enjoyable. It was better than rap music, it was better than an on field presentation, and it was relevant to having schools in Texas and Louisiana. Much better than the 1st down yell too

Not sure where you were sitting but the immediate radius around ZC6 thought it SUCKED

Remember when the Texas Rangers added an organ instead of playing snippets of songs because baseball parks have organs? Yeah...that really sucked, too...

New music = bad bull, old music = bad bull. Texasgs won't be satisfied until there is no music during the game.

WRRRROOOOOOOOOOOONG!!!! If the Corps block stays at least move it to the 2nd or 3rd deck where the sideline tv cameras cant find em. Embarassing

Oh....and i went into the game wanting to dislike the new "lets create an anthem tradition" amd found myself singing along and laughing at the students in the jumbotron

You want an anthem song? 3 words:

Ray. Wylie. Hubbard.

Y'all know what I'm talkin' 'bout.

The song begins by playing "The Eyes of Texas". . . That should be enough to ban it from Kyle Field.

On the other hand, a C&W song by a band named Alabama singing about a Louisiana man in Texas seems to be appropriate for half of the SEC West.

I hate the anthem idea, but if you are going the route of old country songs that mean anything to Ags, why not You Never Even Called Me By My Name? Alabama doesn't mean **** to any Aggies.
