    What's up 1906 Boys! (still doesn't sound right:rolleyes:)

    It was great how the chants organically came together during the Necaxa match. I love the sound of unified voices.

    For upcoming matches we should come up with some standards and come into agreement to the wording. Yesterday I heard Vicqua(?), Victors, and (I was saying) Victory.

    My two cents would be to try to avoid Chelsea chants as much as possible, even though it would be very easy to rip off. Another suggestion would be to bounce while chanting. Unified voices and movement are the key.

    What chants would be good?

    Chelsea chants??:confused:
    No need for agreement on chants in my opinion. The good ones take off, the bad ones fall to the wayside. just my 2 cents.

    Vicqua will come in handy when Montreal comes to the Kezar. If I'm alone on this I'll shut up, but I think it would be cool if we learned the russian one... I don't think it's that hard, Alexi just says it too fast ;).

    Why not... The celery one would ring well in SF! :D

    I think it's a good time to try and mix and match a few tunes. Obviously the ones that have worked with the Casbah and the rest of the Supporter's Groups have been time tested again. With a new group there's always the thought of taking something that hasn't been done before, or fine tune a few ideas.

    Of course, if it stays it will stay, but if not it's never to be heard again--until it's tried again... Or otherwise!

    I will say at least one thought--do not try using songsheets--it's a pain to try and distribute and obviously they do end up being confetti!

    Mix and match--no pain no gain.

    Makes a lot of sense. I think I started the thread while I still had the fever from the match. And I forgot that there's only one prescription for that...

    Re: More Cowbell

    :eek:
    On that note, does anyone know what the status on Cowbell's, drum's, flagpoles, confetti, streamers, etc, etc, is at Kezar? I wasn't able to make the Match v Necaxa last week, so i'm not sure what is restricted and what's kosher @ Kezar. Cheers!

    Re: More Cowbell

    We had streamers last week. I am bringing two flags onpoles this week so I guess we will find out if they let them in or not.

    I might get a cowbell if no one has one. Going once...going twice...

    If you liked the flags, ask Delle Alpi where he got them. They were pretty cheap and a sea of flags would look pretty sweet (as well as a sea of scarves held high...when we get them *hint hint*)

    ST, which match will you come to next? It'll be great to have everyone back at one time
