Does anyone know if it was managment or the players who have chosen this years entrance song? (Hysteria by Muse)
As much as I like Muse, I did prefer last years, Are You Gonna Go My Way by Lenny Kravitz. I remember at the start of the season it was All My Life by the Foo Fighters but was then changed for whatever reason (anyone know why?) loved Where The Streets Have No Name one
Also, the sirens have stopped when the Flyers come out, I've heard a few people have asked the DJ about this and apparently its been managment who have got rid of this, I would like to see them back before the entrance song think it was a good "get up off your seats" thing for the fans. (Instead of stand by to MAKE SOME NOOOOOOOOOISE *Cringe*)
wee side question, whats been your favourite Flyers entrance song over the years?

I used to love welcome to the jungle back in my teens! .. Don't mind muse to be frank... The start of it is perfect for the long walk to the ice from the dressing room...

On a wider issue, I think the DJ has calmed it down a lot this season so far, it's been a lot better, no where near as cringeworthy or annoying

No way, red card for me, not the guy for the job in my opinion, him and the Braehead DJ / Announcer ARE MURDER.

Fair play here - still not a fan but there was a definite change on Saturday with the volume of music lower and none at times which was refreshing. Agree the sirens at the start set up the atmosphere as the teams are about to come on. Just wish we could use a horn or some similar loud noise to signal the end of the period/game as the whistle used is barely heard and it feels really uncertain that the game has in fact finished. I know we have the clock but if there is something going on, like a shot on goal or a stramash, you want to know that everyone realises it's game over.

Agree 100% about a horn to signal end of period/game, the announcer that was in charge of the preseason game on the saturday did this and it worked nicely
Volume was turned down a bit on Saturday and he seems to have anticipated how loud the song he plays for a goal scored actually is and has it turned right down before it plays
And with regards to the Clans announcer, I can never understand what he is saying, its like hes talking underwater! I've only ever sat in the away section tho dont know if its any better anywhere else?

The pre-match build-up is one of the most important parts of the hockey night. Fans of all sports like the same thing to happen on every occasion. The introduction of Geordie Munro sends Section C wild and that, combined with the lights being switched off, builds up the atmosphere. The entrance music should be something that everyone knows (eg Fanfare for the Common Man). Last weeks offering was a bit of a shambles with lights on and the team coming out before the music. Lets get a regular routine to get t he fans bouncing from the start.

If we had any heavies in our team, we could have skated out to Volbeat - A Warrior's Call

No lights down & no sirens. Maybe it was just a new season teething issue? Pre match nerves and new unfamiliar goalie jumped the gun a little and the guys took off early. Sunday night will let us know if it was by design or just a hiccup

I see it's been mentioned on another thread but does anyone know exactly what's gone on with the pre match build up this season?!
It was never the greatest compared to other rinks (partly understandable) but it's like we're actually trying to make it as farcical as possible at the moment.
Do they want to start every game with the crowd sitting in stunned silence?

Brilliant on Saturday with 2 teams skating out at the same time, how thick can these people be.

We were surprised to see the flyers walking along the side of the pad and the DJ must have been caught off guard too and had to hurriedly announce the blaze then the flyers almost simultaneously.
