Is the Bama band playing “Phantom of the Opera” as their “big play” riff?

I mean, “Boomer Sooner” and “Rocky Top” get annoying, but at least they are home grown.

Never thought Andrew Lloyd Webber would be SEC.

Our band’s song selection has been weak dating back to when I was student. Greenday to get the fans fired up starting 4th quarter. Smh.

It’s rather queer that you would make a post about the marching band.

Both Bama and Georgia have the most aggravating band tunes between plays. The the phantom is the worst of it

Right, me pointing out that a football game’s band playing Broadway show tunes to fire up the fan base is the “queer” part of all this.

Anything the Million Dollar Band plays today is no different than any selection they’ve performed in the last 3 decades.

Boomer Sooner is a rip off of the Yale fight song, "Boola Boola," written by Cole Porter, and "I'm a Tar Heel Born" from North Carolina.

I like a good musical, and you can’t dispute that ALW has put out great stuff. Live theatre is one of my favorite forms of entertainment.

What I don’t do is use the music to get my game face on.
