Re: What was your favorite song they played?

i know they usually play We are the Champions by Queen at the end when the winning teams go up and as well My Hero by the Foo Fighters is always something they seem to play in the closing ceremonies. my fav was last year at GTR when the played an Anti Flag song.

Now, if anyone could tell me the song that they played at the end of the closing ceremonies when everyone was leaving the stands (specifically at Sac, but I'm sure I've heard it before at other regionals), It'd be much appreciated. I can post a small clip that was caught when I was filming our team leaving if needed.

At SVR they (appropriately) played that for the WFA award. I'm pretty sure it's used at other regionals for that too.

Re: What was your favorite song they played?

There where a few goods songs that I have heard like Big time by Peter Gabriel. I have also heard a few one hit wonders that were good like Hocus Pocus by Focus.

I have a few suggestions for the Canadian comps, lets ply some more Canadian artist like instead of we are the champions after the finals, play One Little Victory by Rush (implies that you are one your way to another harder comp, Atlanta) and another good band is 54-40 one song from them I do suggest is Unbend your mind.

That is my 2 cents!

I know it wasn't We are the Champions .. it didn't have any words. I'll post a clip in a little bit.

Re: What was your favorite song they played?

Four songs that personally pump me up whenever I hear them (and I ask the DJ to paly them at least once)

Rock You Like A Hurricane- The Scorpions
Welcome to the Jungle- Guns 'n' Roses
Get It Started- Black Eyed Peas
Shook Me All Night Long- AC/DC

OMG, which one was it?
I'm suprised that they would play something so political! (not that I'm complaining )
