There is no place for this music to be tuned in. We are at a football game not a concert. This is disgraceful and distracting the fans, the players, the coaches, and the yell leaders.

Anyone who doesn't believe that DJs suck the life out of sporting events should watch one inning of the Braves v Dodgers game right now.

Compare it to a Braves playoff game ten years ago.



Crying about it is not going to change anything. Players want it, students want it. That's really all that matters

Nonsense

Players may want it on entry, but they aren't paying attention after kickoff.

And after the win last Saturday, the players were celebrating with the Band, not the DJ

You're wrong. Watch the sideline during kickoffs.

I still find it hilarious yall will find anything to complain about and yall chose music in Kyle field

DJ sucks

It's too bad we don't have a band that could play instead

I'd say every kick off. And during the shift from 3rd quarter to fourth.

You can be right and say they don't listen to it as much as the students. But the students like it and they are really the ones who make the atmosphere the way it is

I also don't understand the constant complaining about it, they aren't going to get rid of it. Complain about defensive adjustments and run fits

No one is complaining about the music. The FTAB is great. It's the noise from the DJ that's the problem.

Does the DJ have a social media account/ email address in the Media Guide ?

If you want to hear good music at a reasonable volume go to Reed for a volleyball match. Much better DJ.

There needs to be some balance and the volume needs to come down. It should not be so loud that little kids need hunting earmuffs and alumni cannot talk to the people around them.

Most importantly though it should not draw any energy towards it and away from the game. The student body is not half as engaged in the game as they were just a few years ago. Not even close and it is easy to see why. The DJ sucks energy towards it and away from the field. I want the 12th man back. The ones that threw every ounce of energy they had at the opposing team for the benefit of their own. And it is not like that anymore. Now half of the students sing 10 second song with some random AI beat, are quiet when the ball is snapped, and don't do or probably even know the yells(mostly because they don't really do them anymore). This is a relatively new thing too- just in the last few years.

I can handle the DJ. You would probably be surprised at how much us old 40+ something like and listen to music and at the volume that we do it. But Kyle Field should be a family friendly atmosphere with a sole focus of beating the team on the other side of the field. If you want a DJ to play a few songs in the dead times, ok. That space used to be full of Redfield meat commercials. But turn it down so we can talk and stop when the game is on.

Last-stop worrying about what other schools do. We used to be proud of being different. Then somewhere we decided we had to be like everyone else. I don't care that other schools do it(most are not nearly as bad).
I don’t say this in a braggedocious way. But it’s true. I’ve been right about everything.

The overall message I'm getting seems to be that things used to be better, but now they are not as good, and that if they would return to the way we liked them, they would improve.

Weird. The overall message I'm getting is that there are a bunch of old grumps here that hate seeing those pesky students and players have a good time and get jazzed up by cool music. All because…"We used to be different! And boring! But me and the rest of the old grumpy 2% of the total Kyle field population liked it that way! We hate fun! Fun? This is a live sporting event!"

Just because it's not your cup of tea for music, doesn't mean it's not music.

Love me some david Allan coe though

Not to get off topic, but it is random songs layered over the same AI generated beat. I think it's fair to say that's not music. That's not anymore music than ChatGPT is a real human.

Call me yelling at clouds all you like. I've heard cool uniform changes, players and students love it, that's what matters. That has equated to ZERO championships, sold our traditions and identity out. Maybe it's time for adults to decide again

There are various earplugs made for concerts and social events that reduce noise levels while keeping most of the clarity. Haven't used any yet, but have thought about it for some sections at Kyle that have speakers nearby

https://hears.com/products/hears-earplugs

I've used Loop Earplugs for years because my wife loves going to tons of concerts and music festivals. I use them at sporting events as well. Makes a big difference.

Protect your hearing folks. Recent research shows hearing loss can lead to cognitive decline and dementia in later life.

Couldn't have said it any better. The focal point of Kyle Field has become the DJ instead of the 12th Man and that is a tragic loss of something that helped make this sport special.

I'm younger. I don't mind the music but it's too loud and it's clear we play it to interfere with the other team. Whoever is calling the shots on that clearly feels that the 12th Man isn't capable of making enough noise and we have to compensate as much as is allowed

I'm good with the lights and fireworks. Those are fine.

And as for your kickoff song, that's a sore spot because the Gig 'em Aggies yell on the kickoff was awesome. So if you get that you have to give up quite a lot actually.

I think you can do both. Song ends right at kick.
