To Lamar College

[baddog]

Thanks for hosting our 20-4A playoff game this week. I have a small favor to ask. Could you change your pre-game [b]music[/b] (I use the term loosely) venue to country? I know absolutely no one who likes that "Techno" stuff. I wore ear plugs last night after learning the hard way the previous night at the Vidor game.

Thank you from a fan who buys tickets and concessions.

[/quote]Agreed..... Or at the very least, turn it down a notch. just sayin ;D ;D ;D

keep it the same LAMAR sound great

Kids today love that kind of music for some reason.  I think it is due to increased ultrasound use in pregnancy affecting their ears in utero.

I am not country fan, but anything would be better than what they currently play.  They could play elevator music and it'd be better.

[Guest UHCoog14]

Didn't mind the music. It was just too loud.

They could possibly play a better mix of all genres.

[baddog]

I like all kinds of music. That repetitive stuff gets under my skin. I said play country because I figure it is more readily accepted by most people. It was a relief when the announcer came on.

That's the kind of music they play for the celebrity types in their private clubs and we all know they have no taste.  ;D

Unbelievable that after a game we are hearing about the music played. Wow, you think Country is the most readily accepted type of music by most people (fan's, parents, family members, kids in the band, drill team, cheerleaders and players).

I have heard plenty of stories about guys playing their music loud on the school bus and it wasn't country. So that motivates you to watch some football? LOL

Country music I've heard it all now.  8)

One more suggestion....
At the Vidor game the replay function on the jumboTron was used frequently to highlight exceptional plays (obviously not penalties/flags). At the Nederland game it seemed to be a constant live feed with no replaying. I 'm not even sure how this all works or who is responsible;but, something I noticed.

[bigred360]

You need to contact one or both of these people at Lamar and I doubt with their scheules they are available for a HS game. Video Coordinator Clint Burges or Production Coordinator Brianna Meadows but again they may show your video guys some things about how to work the equipment but they aren't going to be there for a whole HS football game as they are already working overtime with Lamar volleyball, MBB, WBB and football going right now.

u paid less than $10 to watch a football game,not to listen to the music of your choice during pre-game.bring sum ear phones & listen to the old azz put people to sleep music u like.stop crying! 

[JollyRoger81]

No Country!!!!!  :(

[puddin tane]

you must not have a jr hi/hi skool kid!  krap drives me nutsz!

the world needs more Van Halen!

btw--its Lamar [b]University[/b]

[robanadana]

Totally agree. At least turn it down a little. Here's a few artists if Vidor plays there again: George Jones, Tracy Byrd and Clay Walker since they all are Vidor Pirates. We could finish up with Stained or Disturbed right before the game starts....thanks again to Lamar University for hosting us Thursday night. It was like playing in BONEYARD 2.

As someone who likes electronic music, I liked it when I was there last  ;D

but being that the main audience is parents and staff, I think a neutral rock selection is more appropriate. They just try to keep energy high.

The CRAP they play now is not even music so lets play some sixties or seventies when music had some sould. Some Little Richard, Elvis, or even some wild Peter Frampton. Did you ever think that Alice Cooper would be labeled as boring?  :o

Have "Love It To Death" and "Killer" in my truck now.

I guess I will continue to wear ear plugs to Lamar.

Thought they lost their University status.

Yeah, because Lamar sports are soooooo exciting!  *sarcasm*

[BMTSoulja1]

I hate country music.  I prefer 80's r&b music.  Easy listening.  Great on the ears.
