Let's walk before we try running. Just some music on the speaker the crowd will respond to first. Getting a live band to do that would be quite a thing and getting the whole crowd doing a routine is great.......but first things first.

I do hope that with the LEDs, The big screen, music for entrance that we do get more of an event feel and try to build the trinity band and theme.
The music is really irrelevant there and the whole event would look just as good with dozens of other head banging beats.
Cas really are missing a trick with the orange saturation done well there and with the dutch national side. Ditto Dortmund with their yellow and black.
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me.

I'm not knocking it as I love this stiff, especially the video posted but it only works if you have the foundations. We need to build the crowd and the team this year. It'll soon die if we are forcing people to dance when we are getting tonked.
For me, good entrance music, maybe fireworks like on GF day but build that atmosphere organically week on week rather than jumping to the style successful teams already have in place.

I totally agree and yes it must be done organically. You can’t force or instruct an unwilling crowd to behave like the video shows. Also consider that the majority of our fans are not American college students!
Some good music, fireworks, a light show (for night games) will do just fine for now. The odd game scarves or flags could be handed out etc. Small improvements is all we need, the rest will come naturally and with a bit of imagination/magic from ME.
is there a song played as a victory song at Belle Vue?... I think the last time I was at Belle Vue for a home win was 2008... I always thought "I'm a believer" by Monkees (or Smashmouth depending on your era) would be a good victory song
