I'm surprised you didn't mention that knight movie with Heath Ledger, a wannabe jouster and knight,
where they used modern rock for the soundtrack.
That was a little disconcerting at first, until you got used to it.

I'm sure it would give you ideas and a different feel for stadium sing-a-longs.
"We will, we will rock you". Yeah, it sounds so, so, up to your standard of excellence.

"Knight and Day" you mean? I suggested it, but the band choose otherwise. See, for the marching band, I don't pick the music. I let the band make a lot of the decisions. I basically hand them a list of music and say ok pick the the half time. I find that with them involved making the decisions for the band, they are more enthusiastic about going to practice and everything like that. And obviously, I'm doing something correct. When I started here, the band had 75 people who could barely march in a straight line. I now have 310 people on the roster for this year, and are a championship band.
