An Everton band for BMD?

How about a vuvuzela to drown out the boos

An excellent choice. vuvuzelas are second only to recorders for pure musical excellence and I'm now ashamed to have mentioned the kazoo.

We have enough noisy tubes in our fanbase already

Morning blues.

Do we need an Everton band for BMD? A bit like the England band. It'll arguably help change the vibe at the new ground, gee up the crowd and help the players.

Thoughts?

My gut instinct is to be against it because I think it looks a bit crap when others do it. But if I'm honest maybe that's just reflex thinking to denigrate and sneer at them in order to gain a hollow feeling of superiority rather than actually having anything against a band per se.

Maybe I'd warm to an Everton band with time and truly not care what the RS or others say?

In the 1950s Everton used to have St Edward's grammar school brass band playing at HT.

Ah, there we are. Link to our history, harking back to Goodison in years past.

Kick off the season with retro style kits that nod to past as well and it'd be lovely.

Re-establish the boys pen as a nod to our late chairman?

Please god no. Being an Everton fan is already traumatising enough as it is without being subjected to this.

You'll be wanting jets of flame and ticker tape next to generate the illusion of excitement and attract a wealthy, curious but uninterested gentry to sell salmon sandwiches to.

Pish posh.

Brass band playing tunes from the 1800s is the secret formula for turning a club around.

UTFBB.

We'll end up with this.

Are The Moody Blues still going? Got a lot of them on this thread.

Few blasts of “oh when the saints… go marching in ..” on them majorette band cornets would be boss

With standing at the front of the stand instead of at the back, the design lends itself to an Ultra group to lead the way rather than the traditional way of a group of fans congregating and just starting off songs at the back if a stand out of sight.

I'd prefer an Ultra group to a band myself, but prefer the traditional way over an ultra group but that won't happen at BM
