CMC on Smoke On The Water
- Thread starter CyInDFW

I agree...to a point. However, when you get amped up for pregame, and then are forced to listen to the same boring and slow guitar riff for 1-2 minutes, its a giant mood kill. SOTW is a good song, but the way it was used in the teams intro was absolutely horrible.
I still want him to play the first couple guitar riffs from Smoke on the Water, then cut into something bad ***. You would probably be able to hear the crowd groaning when they first hear it.
It's the state of Iowa.
How AC/DC isn't in the mix for these types of things is kind of puzzling. Every time I'm back and listen to the local radio I'm reminded of how their air play hasn't changed, along with any band that had their moment in 1998.
I'm looking at you, Godsmack. Oh, how I miss that superficial rural/suburban teenaged angst.

Smoke on the Water has become the symbol, for some, of just how far behind the times and out of touch the old staff was. Twitter was the same way, they do it for recruiting but it also serves as a big message to the fanbase about what type of program they're going to be.
CMC figured all of that out and has emphatically let everyone know how he's changing the culture of ISU. The guy really knows how to sell it to the fans. I hear "changing the culture" every time a new coach rolls into Ames, but this staff is really making me believe they can do it.
I hope it's a really annoying rap song just so some old codgers can wax poetic about bringing Smoke on the Water back.
Smoke on the Water in the mid 10s > Jock Jams in the early to mid 00s
This goes back further than Deep Purple.
Right there with you, I really don't care. No way the poor guy picks something that makes everyone happy. I just hope he gets it Charter pre-approved to reduce whining.
The only culture change that matters is the losing culture. That hasn't changed yet. Twitter and WWE songs don't win games.
I could get behind this. It's the only thing I've seen posted that gets me hyped up.
These are a couple of the many reasons CPR failed.
Also the idea that a culture change could only happen in one specific area of the program is completely missing the point of a culture change.
I really like the idea of tying the entrance song to the sirens. And hopefully, there will be some siren sounds in the entrance song. Let's make it all one big storm buildup.
