Craig Counsell's walk-up song?

[DannoMac21]

I know it's like a 60s-70s war type era song. I just can't put my finger on the name. Thanks in advance.

[DannoMac21]

Pleeeeeease someone's gotta know it.

All Along the Watchtower.

 

Jimi Hendrix.

I am not sure if there is any major league baseball player who would remind me less of Jimi Hendrix. Yeah, its definitely "All Along the Watchtower" though.

[aracko]

He should come up to Amazing Grace.

Isn't it ironic that Counsell, the whitest person in the stadium, was the first player to drive in a run on Negro League Night?

But the song does include the lyric "no reason to get excited," so maybe it is a perfect fit.

 

(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

It should be a Dylan acoustic version vs. the Hendrix electric.

and it was Hart that he drove in. But he wasn't the whitest person in the stadium. I was out there too http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Maybe he asked for that song, but meant the U2 version off "Rattle and Hum."

Funny how he started the season with 7 Dust.. switched it to Jimmy and actually started hitting a little bit. Maybe we can convince Gabe Gross to switch.

"Girlfriend" by Avril Lavigne would be a good one for him.

Gabe Gross has absolutely dreadful theme music. I fully second this motion.

 

Oh and I love Sevendust "Black"... knowing Counsell's hitting ability I don't think the song switch will help him ever be a decent hitter.

RickieWeeks23 has revealed his youth on this one! I know you meant no harm, but to hear Hendrix's "All Along the Watchtower" called "like a 60s-70s war type era song" made my soul bleed.

 

Viva la Hendrix!

 

FWIW, my only other choice for Craig would be "Voodo Chile: Slight Return". For those who know that opening guitar riff, you need know nearly no other to know what a beautiful instrument the electric guitar can be! (Ok, to be fair, that'd be my choice for me, as it has nothing to do with how it relates to Counsell...)
