I get they want to be an elite marching band. That's fine. But for 3 measley hours a weeks play football songs.
Behind the scenes Curt about wanted to kill that guy. They'd play full force when IUP would be driving in to that endzone. Lol. You know, make it loud for the home team.
Always say ... nothing beat IUP entering the field to Cherokee. They had teams beat before the ball kicked off.
I guess we'll see if Ghostbusters lives to see another day.

FSU seems to be doing it in a more respectable way than others.

A problematic thing for IUP was that their version of Cherokee contained the FSU Tomahawk Chop theme, at least the version I recall in the 90s and 2000s. Cherokee is an old big band standard and a really fun tune, but problematic because its basically stereotyped musical themes. Did IUP's band ever play Cherokee Nation by Paul Revere & the Raiders? That song's horn riffs would sound awesome with a good marching band.
When I was in 4th grade learning to play an instrument, my teacher offered to transcribe Scotland the Brave for me if I also learned Cherokee.
