Intro Music, Ideas, Effects for Rock Band Live Show?!

[Neoni]

I really really really really hate intro music and think it's the biggest cheese going however it can be done with a bit of style.
We have 2 local bands who come on to intro music but the thing is the intro lasts about 5 minutes so they stand there waiting for that long chatting to each other and then when the intro finishes they still all look at each other before kicking in - pointless.

So pick your music that lasts no longer than 1 minute
When it starts walk straight on and get ready
Perhaps have a nice deep voice on the intro that says something like "Neoni's band"
Count of 4 and straight in

That may work

We've sorted it dude, its about 2 minutes and length and has a sweeping like effect at the end and as soon as it reaches the end, and the biggest build up happens BANG straight into born to be wild.

Am I the only one who went into this thread thinking "Rock Band" as in the game?

That would have been so lame it would have come out the other end and been awesome.


Anyway, how about Ace of Spades?

So there you are - a rock covers band and you come on to Ace Of Spades - what the hell do you use as your opening number to beat that?
