I understand that they have music playing in between matches, but if the band could play at the very beginning (during autonomus) and right after each match, it wouldnt cause interference with the DJ.
I have been in FIRST long enough to remember the days when bands in the stands were not disallowed. If they were to ever be allowed again, I simply would not attend. Call me old, but the last thing a FIRST event needs is any more noise, in any form or fashion whatsoever.
