our intro thread

[lakane]

might be just me but i think the players intro on the ice this season is awful. ladies and gentlemen here are the nottingham panthers dah de dah de dah players to the blue line please. does'nt seem to get the crowd up like last year

[Rich]

A warm welcome back for brainbug tho!

[mmmbop]

I think we should have an air raid siren

[spik]

Or a heatbeat getting louder and as soon as music intro comes in, were off.
Don't mind them just rushing out but pointless bleating names out over music.

[MP]

I've only been to the Cardiff and Belfast games but the intro did nothing at all for me. Pity Steelers use Sandstorm - something along those lines would work better.

At least the music for the warmup was improved for the Belfast game - for the Cardiff game if I'm honest (and restrained) I can only say most of what was played was just a row

[Optic]

i like our intro, but a added heartbeat getting louder and fast will be good, then a huge smash of glass sound then out players bursting onto the ice will be awesome ;D

[charlish2099]

sounds like WWE, agree would be cool, did we play nigtmare on saturday?

[P.G.F.I.]

I think our intro is fine , better the last one we had for like 3 seasons.

[Matt]

Now that they`ve fixed the sound system(where we sit anyway),and you can actually hear it,I think the build up music and intro is really cool!

I love the Thunder track(gimee all your loving),the almost-blackout,and the Old Spice tune(can`t remember it`s proper title)

I think it`s the best intro in the 5 years I`ve been going.

[ted]

better than 'random foew songs' for last couple of seasons. I think they should still play time to go and read out players as they come to the ice though.

[heja]

I think the whole intro music is good just need to announce the players one by one on
to the ice

I'm a stickler for tradition, so both sets of players should be called forward to their respective blue lines to line up for the national anthem.

that rubbish thats only tradition in international games

Thank's for your informative input as usual. I think you'll find that many teams have used this method of introduction over the years, and not just for international games either.

Agree wholeheartedly.
What I used to love about this intro at LPS is you could boo the opposition players you didn't like ;D
It was great watching the Steelers skate up to the blueline one by one to a rousing chorus of boos ;D

[heja]

but its not there home game so don't make them feel at home, would rather the teams coming go no recognistion what so ever than them feeling welcome (no not the fans just the team)

[carolle]

I wouldn`t call booing each individual players is making them feel welcome..

I`d like to see both teams being introduce .
