i second the notion of using SLAM! mainly cuz "jump around" is madison's thing. we can't sit here and copy them we need to make our games unique. any other ideas for songs are welcome.

hey guys that has to be the best idea that i have heard in a while. I live with harker and will make mention of the idea to him. I don't see any reason why we couldn't get it switched, it actually might be a better idea since maybe we could make it into our own thing and let madison use jump around.
i'll give him the pitch and see what he thinks.
on a side note though
what do you think of using the "Zombie Nation" song after jump around?? I think it is really good cuz it seems to get people that might be losing some energy or interest back into it and then get all crazy still for the rest of the game. just wondering what other people think though

Do you guys really play "Jump Around" durring the game?
That is such a rip off of Wisconsin Football.
Personally, I think that all canned in music should be banned unless you are unlucky enough to be at an NBA game.. The Band is where it's at..

yes sadly. only recently (last 2 seasons) has UW use the canned song. it started with their band the saxes and clarinets would take off their reeds to make the wailing sound.

I know the Zombie Nation song has been played in the past at the KC...just not sure how many people know it. Any other ideas for "Jump Around" alternatives? "Slam" sounds good, and I know there are more out there...
Fatman Scoop - "Be Faithful" may be another good one. Pretty much just the first 30 seconds though...

i know that last season, at the begining of the games, for the uwm intros, they played "stand up" ludacris song. i personally think that song should be played when we want everyone in the cell to get loud, and of course "stand up" but i really like the idea of slam!

With the Slam thing, when you talk to Harker(HI NAte, I know you read this stuff), try to muffle the real reson. Say that we are doing it so we get Chicken and Bistcuits. That is even a good idea in itself, maybe when they do get the five dunks or are close we coould play slam!

I just think its funny that you want to immitate something that UW is known for..
While we aren't in the same school "system" as IU, I know we want to separate ourselves as far as we can from anything they do..

i agree taht buliding your own schools reputation is very important, which is exactly what we are trying to do. I dont even know if UW plays jump around at their BB games, i thought that it was stricktly football. I could be wrong maybe they do..... what ever, it is a fun song when your team is winning,( should never be played when we are losing) which is exactly what happened when we were playing detroit at home ) but nonethe less, it is effective in getting the student section pumped up. that is the whole point of the song, and until we find something else we are kinda stuck with it.

Well, I was going to take Jump Around, and have the band play the intro fanfare thingy. Who cares if it's canned and who cares if it is a Mad thing. We'll put a twist on it and show our love for the UW system. Unfortunately my premature removal from the band never saw this materialize.

Just got this idea about a couple days ago. How about JUmp Jump by Kris Kross!!!! Same effect and same era of SLam by ONYX, those two songs combined= one hell of a tradition! ;D ;D

definatly with the jump jump idea...i also think were ripping off madison....my roomie transfered from madison this year and that is all he talks about when it comes on......i say go for the jump jump...pretty much same touch, and every one knows it
but then again weve been winning with what we got so why change it you know? i wont say im all about superstition but it would be pretty sh*tty to change the song and get a loss.....maybe wait till next year and get it more organized....that way more time to think about it and we can come out with someone new next year when we cake walk through the horizon league again.....
