Clarkson's band

[Beeeej]

Back from Moose Rectum?  Sure!

Seriously - as far as I'm concerned, Clarkson people are always welcome when they have something to contribute.

We have one, it's just too fun posting on here and watching all of you get mad because of a stupid internet forum post.

Yeah, if only we were as mature as the Clarkson University student body. ::screwy::

Harvard plays U.F.  (Maybe both do.)

Clarkson's band wasn't there -- a handful of out of tune, out of sync instruments aren't a "band."  When they really are there, they sound great and contribute to the environment.

However, somebody has to tell those dumbasses not to play over the out-of-town scores.  They may not care, but fans of a team that is moving on do.

On a related note, I think our band has learned to play "Kyle's Mom Is a Bitch". :-D

Gee, I wonder why it is that so many of you seem to know SO MUCH about raping cows?  

As for the quality of the music the past two nights, it certainly wasn't what it normally would be.  I don't know why Clarkson schedules spring break 3 or 4 weeks earlier than they used to back in my day, but it makes it tough to get a band with decent instrumentation.  Many of us alumni (at least half of the band) only play once or twice a year.  I'll be the first to admit I am far from the musician I used to be.  The object of our being there, though, was not to win a band competition, but simply to be a strong presence for our team and their fans.  When you are a very small group among a huge, boisterous crowd in the opponent's building, you do whatever it takes to be heard.  Based on the comments we received from fellow Clarkson fans, from our hockey players, and certainly from the many posts on this thread, I say, "Mission accomplished."  

I agree with a previous post that it was a shame to see such poor sportsmanship directed toward us after the game.  I don't mind a little good-natured ribbing, but so man of your "fans" were downright nasty with their taunting comments, not to mention the verbal threats and the snowballs.  What it all boils down to is that the #1 team in the league beat the #9 team.  BFD!  You were SUPPOSED TO do just that!  I know many of those people were probably relieved that history didn't repeat itself this year.  OT games can usually go either way, and a Clarkson win would have made for a very interesting game 3.  But in spite of that, there is no excuse for some of the behavior.  That said, it is only fair that I acknowledge those who were decent to us.  Some people offered words of encouragement for our future or apology for their own fans who lacked class.  To those people, I say thank you.

Even though we went home without a W, I was glad I made the trip.  I will definitely be back to annoy the masses...  [/q]

I think you did an outstanding job, let me know when you get the carnegie hall gig.
