Did anyone else notice that the band did not play "Hey Baby" during the William and Mary game?
Its absence was felt in section 119.

I could barely even hear the band in 118 actually so I didn't even notice.

the band doesn't have all the parts to hawaii five-o yet... it sounds like a trainwreck right now. the parts are reportedly "coming in later this week". doubtful for michigan, but probable for anything after thanksgiving break.

I don't think the band was there in full because half of them had to go to the Senior Day football game (read: another massacre) vs. Colgate... but hopefully we'll see a full band and the triumphant return of "Hey Baby" on Thursday night.

Correct, the Pep Band was split in two on Saturday, with half at the football game. They should all be back for Michigan. And did you notice the band's great new classic rugby shirts? They looked fabulous. Rumor has it that when they play Hawaii 50 it will be dedicated to lichoya, so he better get ready to dance!

I take it the cheerleaders were split too because people were asking where the other two guys were.

The freshman cheerleaders and band members were forced to go to the football game, along with some band members who volunteered to go to football.

A bunch of people were questioning if the band still does play Hey Baby, so I had to make an account to clear it up. We definitely still do, we actually just rehearsed it the other day so don't worry it definitely will be played. On another note, the Hey Song might be cut after the Michigan game if people keep yelling "you suck". Athletics wants everyone to say "Let's Go GU", but I really am not personally a fan of that since that gets rid of the Hey and just sounds weird musically. Anyway, the band is getting to the game early to work on the cheer with the student section, because if they hear anything negative shouted during that song they're making the band cut it for good Just figured I'd post that here since I know many people going to game go on here, and just let everyone else know to not shout You Suck even though it is soo tempting

7nation, we don't necessarily need the band to get the Hey Song going, although it does help tremendously. There was an inspired performance of it in Section 118 before the band started playing during the under 8 timeout in the second half on Saturday.

There is no way you can try to have a version of the Hey song without actually including HEY!!!
It just sounds so strange and stupid that it will never work. It just doesnt seem like Let's Go G U fits in there. Even something like "HEY....G....U" would be much better. It prob still wouldnt work, but it would have a much better chance than something that completely removes the Hey.

GUHoya is so right. Let's go GU? That sounds terrible and there is no way it will work. 7Nation can you make this happen?

It's cool that the band's big enough that they can pull a split band off. I don't think we could have done this in my day.

i definetly agree with 007 Hey G U is at least passable. May not work, but at least that has a chance.

I think it's completely unacceptable that Georgetown students yell "You Suck" in the Hey song. First, it's probably not a cool thing to say, especially when we're playing a team like William and Mary who aren't our enemies.
But the real reason is: IT'S A MARYLAND CHEER. The stupid kids in College Park couldn't come up with anything more clever than yelling YOU SUCK, and somehow it swept the nation. If anyone should know better, it's the Hoyas

Why do we play Rock and Roll Part 2 anyway? The song's lame and the guy who wrote it has been convicted of both child pornography and of having sex with an 11-year old girl. Who needs it?

well, for those who hate it I can almost guarantee you it wont be around anymore after the Michigan game, cause people are gonna yell "Hey, You Suck!"
It was discontinued last season, then this "Let's Go GU" idea came about, and now it will be gone again.
