Blackhawk Celebration Songs

Well, not so much celebrating the last two games.  Did the team even show up?  At least last night they were nice enough to lose in regulation time with no overtimes.  And the refs need to start calling the Bruins on some of their mean little hits that they get away with all the time.  They have elevated the sneaky hit that just barely avoids a penalty (but that shouldn't worry them either as the Hawk Power Play does not exist, no points in the last 20).

Anyway, that off my chest, Saturday I found that WXRT in Chicago (Chicago's Finest Rock) had listeners voting on favorite Blackhawk songs played at the United Center (almost said Stadium).  Of the five songs that are top vote-getters, I only recognized #1 and #2.

Of course, I usually don't go to Chicago and have never been to the UC either.  So, what they play other than #1 would not be known to me.  I did listen to every song, though.

5.  RE-EDUCATION (THROUGH LABOR)--  RISE AGAINST--  For best warm-up song (and they are a Chicago-based group.  This is a really good song.

4.  EULOGY--  TOOL--  Best penalty-kill song.  Didn't like it.

3.  HUMP DE BUMP--  RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS----  Best stoppage song.  How'd this one get by me?  Oh yes, never listened to Arcadium album before.

2.  BROWN SUGAR--  ROLLING STONES--  End of the game song as fans filing out.

1.  CHELSEA DAGGER--  FRATELLIS--  Best victory song.  Also score song.  I've written quite a bit on this song.  Click on Chelsea Dagger on labels.
