Noheart Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Agree with No Heart (for the most part) and I am a music fan. House, Dubstep, Electro, etc just isn't hockey music. What got me pumped to play was Pantera, Disturbed (10 Thousand Fists in The Air would be sweet), System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine (imagine the intros).

Gerg Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 If fans need just the right music in order to cheer once in a while there is something wrong with either the fans or the product on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noheart Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 We already have the worst crowd noise in the league, but I think most of this has to do with the inability of DJ Dave to pump up the crowd in ANY way. As most people have said, DJ Dave had 8 months to think of new ideas and not only did he re-vamp our intro into something ridiculously embarrassing, he is still using the same overused soundtracks. I think I hear "MAKE SOME NOISE" at least 3-4 times a game at the WORST possible times, to go with Rihanna and other uninspiring music. How does this guy have a gig still? I know DJ Dave is on this board so PLEASE get your act together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBackup Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I like the intro. It has a nice build and works pretty well as a pump up song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck in the Truck Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Well yes DJD should either play better music or get sent to the farm.Music sucks ,crowd sucks cause when im there i see most people so busy on cell phones or trying to tape game they have no time to cheer and well lower bowl mostly corporate or one time fans cause they got the tickets given to them soooo ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulStevens27 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Shinedown's "Sound of Madness" as the Canucks skate out, timed properly with "watch your back!" gets my vote... Should put the fear of God in their opponents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gumballthechewy Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 You want an intro song that will get you pumped and no other team in the league (as far as I know) uses? Here you go: And for a goal song how about this: (It's supposed to start at the 52 second mark) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Alexander Cody Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Was at game tonight. DJ Dave played more rock music for sure... First whistle of the game, guess what he played? Foo Fighters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Here's the latest from the Project NU2: I want to run - I want to hide One song. Two sentences. Eight words. Twenty-one letters. Too many varied opinions to count. When the Vancouver Canucks were introduced for their regular season opener last Saturday night, they skated out to DJ M.E.G.’s Stock-Holm; that song was once again played Sunday night, before Map of the Problematique by Muse ushered the Canucks out Wednesday against the Calgary Flames. Yes, the Vancouver Canucks are officially on the hunt for a new entrance song. Judging from the response Kathy Anderson got when discussing U2, it’s a hot topic. Again, U2’s Where the Streets Have No Name will no longer be the only song played when the Canucks skate onto the ice; it will still be used, in rotation, with a handful of other songs, none of which the Canucks are locked into. We do things different on the West Coast, as is reflected in the recently released Our Team, Our Way campaign, featuring everything that makes living and playing hockey in Vancouver unique. In sticking with that, the hunt for a truly original song began; it’s time the Canucks skated out to something fresh in hopes of firing the team and the fans up to provide the ultimate home ice advantage en route to the ultimate prize. While no song suggestion is bad, we’ve come up with some criteria for what we’re looking for musically: -It should drive energy and anticipation of the upcoming battle -Something unique you won’t hear in any other arenas or stadiums -A timeless quality (Sorry, Gangnam Style supporters) -It must resonate with our large, diverse Canucks family -Must have a huge impact in a short amount of time (the team’s only skating for 1-2 minutes and the first few seconds are critical) -Should possess an anthemic je ne sais quoi Obviously we’re looking to avoid all outdated/cliché songs, and also tunes with narrow appeal. While AC/DC’sThunderstruck, Beautiful People by Marilyn Manson and anything from Metallica is frequently heard with other teams, it’s a new season and it’s time for a new song for the Canucks. That’s where you come in. Your opinion matters to us, so have your say below. Your voice will help determine the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I submitted my choice, even though I love the U2 intro: It has that EPIC movie sound building as a part of an opening video right up to 0:57 - where it could pause and the announcer could say, "Ladies and Gentlemen, your Vancouver Canucks!" - at which point the music could begin again with the drop into the dubstep. I'm not even a fan of dubstep but I think this actually makes sense from a musical standpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghosttomost Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Wow, I can't believe people are against the U2 intro. It would be hard to find a better pump up song than that. But, if we're looking, I thought someone else's suggestions of Japandriods was genius. They're a Vancouver band so it would a great promotion for some local guys: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooker Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I think we need a song from a west coast band of BC to represent these are my picks. Artist - Daniel Wesley Song - Radio Daniel Wesley out of white rock BC has a little steady strum and is a good all around song. Not sure if it is intro worthy but good for a west coast consideration Artist - Current Swell Song - Coming home These guys are out of Victoria BC The first 25 seconds can be skipped by DJ Dave or can use the twang to build the anticipation in the tunnel for the boys. It is a little country rock/reggae but still had a pump jam without heavy lame bass. Plus the name is Coming home and we are playing at our home. http://oncallheroes.bandcamp.com/album/brotherhood-re-release Artist - On Call Heroes Song - Brotherhood (outbro) Originally these twins were from Port Alberni BC but the rest of the band and creativity is from Victoria. It's loud, it's rock and the first 1:30 is action packed and LOUD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Rypien Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 As an 18 year old, I apologize for my generation, as well as the one that follows mine. We are the reason such sh!tty music gets played in arenas and probably the reason were losing U2 as our opener. Please DJ Dave, we love U2, its OUR OPENING. No one else has one like it. Stop trying to change it to appeal to all these losers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghosttomost Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I posted this in the other thread, but I think Japandroids would be perfect. 1) They're local! 2) Good pump up song. 3) Lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
