The music does not bother me and if the wrestlers want it I am all for it. Just my take, your mileage may vary…
Music During Matches?

They definitely need to play some John Coltrane during Brooks. 😎
Are you for real my man? I'm sportin one of several Coltrane TShirts today. Yet another thing to talk about the next time we meet over a whiskey.
I'll have my video (I'm sure there's other sources now, but you can hear the questions on mine!) from the presser up later today--but Cael even went so far as to say he might turn the music UP if we don't get louder.
But better music choices would be appreciated. Like with walkout music, let the wrestlers pick their match music.
I agree, though, that the quiet concentration of the fans coupled with the explosion when something happens is part of what makes Rec Hall special.
I could see some uptempo Coltrane for Mesenbrink's matches, btw.
Exactly. Little weird when it's quiet enough you can hear someone fart
At this point, I'd even be in favor of straight up stealing their rhytmic little chant. It's annoying as heck, in all the right ways, and isn't at all cheesy.
Stealing from other programs is an Ohio State specialty.
Definitely open to inspiration too. I like the student chants they started last year or the year before--but would love for something to break the silence above the floor. I'm really into jazz in the background as @hlstone & @86PSUPaul suggested, but I'm weird like that.
A downside to music: if it had been played in Rec Hall 10 years ago, that one guy never would've blurted out "You can't handle The Ruth!".
Every once in a while, the one-liners are a great bonus.
Oh, no. After I posted this, I realized it might be Ferrari on the accordion.
Some guy in the SRO area (back in the corner behind where Cael et al sit) was screaming wildly at Tan Tom for a bit.
(The quiet music didn’t drown him out).

This is true. I am an usher in Rec. Hall and we were informed the music was requested by the wrestlers and coaches. You are correct that Oregon State was doing it during our recent match with them and our wrestlers liked it.
What could go wrong?
Not to anybody in black and gold.
I'm actually surprised they don't. They do at football games and at nationals now, so, it is legal.
I cannot remember the last time I was at a sporting event when the crowd was consistently loud during play, outside of when the home football team was on defense.

Till got himself in some trouble a little while back.
Better than SBD and I'm not talking about this:

The Rec Hall crowd has a decent amount of older fans at every match. I think this adds to the quiet atmosphere as these veteran wrestling fans tend to not get very worked up. I've heard it gently referred to as a "knowledgable crowd." Rec Hall could be much more intimidating if it were louder - I have to agree with Cael!!
I'll take John Coltrane any day over the damn rap music they played at the Big10s in Michigan.
I work 60 concerts a year, all types of music. The rap at Michigan I think was being sponsored by Advil.
