BenFisk'sBiggestFan Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 5 minutes ago, admin said: Despite what people think about the viking clap or whatever it is called now, Bobby was doing that for TFC and Canada games in the supporters section in 2011, and that is not a claim he invented it. There is of course something really powerful to simple things the whole stadium can get behind. Shedding all pretense of ultra anything, and reliance on the supporters groups going forward I think we are really free now to do whatever the hell we want. So this should not just be about songs but the following. 1. Coordination of the section. Capo, trumpet, smart watches.... I don't care think outside the box. 2. Simple stadium crowd animation they can get behind and how we signal them to do A B C.... 3. Things that are completely new. A gong shaped like a canoe, or a large native drum, whatever... we strike when we score a goal and all yell "sorry". (think it was Gary O who came up with the sorry idea) So it should be about creating traditions, animating and coordinating ourselves and how to reach beyond to the rest of the stadium. I love the idea of chanting sorry when we score. It's so Canadian, and it's easyenough the whole stadium can join in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A steel something would be industructable and last for ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 What could you do with tens of thousands of cell phones? Download a Voyageurs ring tone, or an app that played someting all at the same time? It would be fascinating to hear what it would sound like in the stadium. Imagine coordinating things through an app. Oh it's not Ultra you say? I don't give a shit anymore about what is 'proper' supporter wise. We can chart our own path now.

Maybe even have a conductor capo up top, relaying to assistant capos down. Flash Cards would help between capos. Worth printing just to try.

Admin Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 With the flags you could establish 1. General hey pay attention signal. 2. Signal the next song 3. General start the song countdown 4. Keep the beat of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Side note.... The peace symbol is a combination of ND of the semaphore alphabet for Nuclear Disarmament Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ngravs Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 This is no chant just a fun song (comes from the Liverpool Allez allez allez) if someone brought a guitar to the pub or whatever.
