And every FRC event for the past 3 years

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

What song is that?!?

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Closer.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

I don't feel like they play Sandstorm as much at Californian events. Its always usually Daft Punk or some other mash-up.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

I'm pretty sure that was played in an elimination match in LA...or it might just have been sounding in my head :confused:

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

This would be absolutely fine with 4901.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Sounds like you need to find a better DJ!

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

A little One Direction and some 5SoS maybe?

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Don't forget more Justin Bieber and Backstreet Boyz ;)

That said, I could go for better music at FRC events......FRC Top 40, Cotton Eye Joe, and mediocre electronic gets old after 3 seasons :p

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Can we please please please agree as a community to never play the Cotton Eye Joe or the Cha Cha Slide ever again at a competition? Having heard them once in my life is really enough, now, I just want to rip my ears off with visegrips.

I have heard some Rush the past few competitions, which is a definite plus. 2112 makes elims feel intense without making me groan from the overplayedness.

We had a blanket ban on the standard audience-participation songs at Chezy Champs. I don't think anyone missed them.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Sweet Caroline and YMCA

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

They've been playing Sandstorm since 2000.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

What song is that?

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

How about this infamously recorded Hall of Fame FIRST Edition? I'd like to hear that at FiM.

Da dadadada. Da dadadada. Da da dadadadada. Da dadadada da dadadada da dada da dada da dada da dada da dada...

Dadadada da dadadada da dadadada da dadadada....

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

here, let me google that for you

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Hmmm, I think those might be misheard lyrics. Here are the real ones.

The worst part is I actually heard the song when I read this.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

I think he's referring to the meme surrounding the song. Whenever a song plays (especially on streams), people ask for the name of the song, and they usually get a troll response along the lines of any but not limited to the following: Darude - Sandstorm, Dyrude - Saltstorm, Sarude - Dandstorm, etc.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

I think you missed the sarcasm I so carefully lined my post with...

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

umhh lets see, Sam Smith latch

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

But, but, its not a true FRC event without playing cotton eye Joe, or cha cha slide at least once, just wouldn't feel the same, but I agree with you it does get annoying it just wouldn't be the same with-out it.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

When our robot control systems, wireless connectivity, and FMS are SO PERFECT that we no longer require dance breaks to fix technical issues, then we will probably also no longer need the services of FTAs, FTAAs, CSAs, etc. -- and then magical elves in a hollow tree can run all of our events remotely, simultaneously, seamlessly. Then I will be outside watching the pigs fly around, because FRC will have become boring.

Until that day, dance on. Macarena, chicken dance, cotton-eyed joe, cha-cha slide, hokey-pokey, whatever you like.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

Sad thing is, I requested this song at one of the events I went to and the DJ refused to play it, saying they only play "frc-approved" songs.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

For those interested the website below has the approved music list and many other documents for FIRST DJs.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

What if, instead of that jazzy tune they normally play during the game reveal animation, there was Darude-Sandstorm playing in the background.

Re: Main song played for the 2015 game
 

I call for more Mexican techno music. El Sonidito is well-known thanks to GTA5 and is just the tip of the beepy dances iceberg.

Was very pleased that my team played the winning final match at Crossroads to YYZ.
