This sounds dumb, but what the heck is...

...the music they play at the beginning of the warm ups & shootaround? It's instrumental, with the heavy synth and keyboard. I know it's not "The Who" bit they play on the jumbotron. It's usually not my thing but it sounds pretty cool and I can't get it out of my head. It might even make it to the mp3 player for my torture time on the elliptical or treadmill.

Thanks in advance, and Let's go Blues!!!

"St. Louis Blues March" by Glen Miller

It’s what they played in the olden days on KPLR ch 11. It raises the hair on the back of my neck. It smells of victory and glory. When we invaded Chicago for a game we had the truck blaring it as we cruised Lake Front Dr.

2 summers ago

They had big band night at the Redlands Bowl here, the local amphitheater. Everyone was tapping their toes and the young kids were up swinging in front of the stage until this song came on. I started whoopin it up about Let’s Go Blues!! Naturally all the blue hairs around me had no clue why I was suddenly fist pumping the air and soon security was around me talking into their wrists. I regained my composure in time to remain in my seat. It was like the first time I heard rock n roll, I was sitting on the porch in Maplewood watching my dad mow the grass and the neighbor had her window open and the Stones came on. Suddenly I was shaking and gyrating all over the porch like some alien had taken over my body. The old man come over and asked if I had ants down my pants or what. I wasn’t sure what had just happened. Then the old man heard the music and said it was the devil’s work with all them electric git-tars and shook his head in disgust.
