My big 3 artists for working out are Ozzy Osbourne, Dethklok, and Disturbed. On the occasion where I get a little bored and make an on-the-fly playlist, Mr. Roboto has shown up more than once, as has Ice Ice Baby. You may now laugh at my taste in music.
Long time readers of Clips Nation know that I have a pretty full iPod. A feature of my game previews this season was to include a lyrical reference related to the opponent's team name, and I took some amount of pride in my choices (though sadly the team did not do well in games where I referenced Radiohead lyrics).
But I do NOT listen to the modern pop and hip hop music played on Top 40 radio stations. Nicki Minaj and Pitbull are of course unavoidable -- but I do my best. I love alt-indie new music, and went to see Kate Nash live a couple weeks ago -- but I would run screaming away at an LMFAO concert.
Ironically, the one ubiquitous stadium song that IS in heavy rotation on my personal playlist -- The White Stripes' iconic Seven Nation Army (which is an undeniably great song) -- has never been a fixture for Clippers' games. The Heat intros to the actual song are pretty damn cool -- even given how much I despise the Heat -- though I could do without the fans Seven Nation chanting (give me a soccer stadium chant any day). (Idea -- given the team's penchant for handing out white shirts for playoff games, maybe they should consider some songs from Plain White T's in the AAA.)
The Clippers have a DJ -- DJ Dense -- and honestly, I don't really know what he's playing most of the time. Of course there's the Electric Slide, played in conjunction with Clipper Darrel's dance routine antics. And there are various other situational standards that happen at all arenas -- Kris Kross' Jump during a jump ball, Kiss Me by Sixpence None the Richer during the Kiss Cam promo, etc. But mostly, I try to tune out the music, which let's face it, is too loud, and not particularly good.
In fact, I was struggling so much to come up with some semblance of a playlist for this post that I finally hit on an idea -- I searched for Clippers Spirit on YouTube and lo and behold, I found a series of songs that the Clippers dance team performed to last season. And sure enough, I don't know any of these songs. Right Now? Pound the Alarm? Turn Up the Music? Pop That? Boomerang? Goin' In? Follow the Leader? Dirty Bass? Got Me Good? Where Have You Been? We Run the Night? Startin' Somethin' (Finally, a song I know, but only because it's a remix of a 30 year old Michael Jackson song).
To their credit, the Clippers in-game entertainment folks do try to avoid what is to me the most egregious error -- playing music during live action. Sure, they'll play the occasional DEE-FENSE CLAP CLAP thing, that's fine. But while watching games at other arenas, I'm always more than a little taken aback when I see a team dribbling up the court with hip-hop blaring over the speakers. That's just wrong. The game has its own soundtrack -- the bounce of the ball, the sneakers on the floor, the referee's whistle, the trash talk -- when the ball is in play, the music needs to be off.
I assume that the individuals programming the music at NBA arenas know their audience -- but at the same time, given the demographic of folks who can afford season tickets, one wonders if a steady dose of Nicki Minaj is the answer. Contrasting the Clippers, and the NBA overall, with the music played during NHL games is night and day. I get it that these are different demographics and that the NBA is a much more urban game -- but those hockey guys are having all the fun, musically speaking, even if they do have to suffer through 1-0 games. The music at the STAPLES Center would certainly be very, very different if I were programming it -- but let's face it, I'm there to watch basketball.

The latest selections named to the registry span from 1919 to 1998. They range from the recordings of the all-Black 369th U.S. Infantry Band led by James Reese Europe after World War I, to defining sounds of jazz and bluegrass, and iconic recordings from pop, dance, country, rock, rap, Latin and classical music.

Jones produced the song as well as arranging the strings that play a key part in the composition. The song was a hit upon its 1971 release, winning the Grammy for Best R&B song the following year, and going on to become a standard of the era.

But hard work has been happening on the platform, too. In late June, the Samish nation held its annual general council meeting on Teams, offering financial, political and legal reports, tribal leader responses to citizen questions collected in advance, and live results of the 2020 tribal council election.
Eastwood also recorded that meeting so Samish citizens could view it at their convenience. In June, 84 tribal members watched the proceedings live and nearly 20 later logged into the recording. (The Samish nation has a population of more than 2,000 people.)
Tribal leaders say the actual participants totaled about 150, as many families watched together, clustered around individual computers, meaning that virtual meeting drew roughly the same number of people as in-person meetings in past years.
Away from her governance work, Eastwood also has led or participated in many of the virtual cultural sessions. Next to a tabletop in her Anacortes home, she set up a ring light stand, affixed her smart phone to that stand and activated the Teams app, sharing an overhead view of her hands as they created cattail mats and woolen headbands.
Since the last Ice Age, the region has served as the traditional Samish homeland. When white settlers arrived there in the late 1800s, they began destroying a large Samish community house. In the ensuing decades, those settlers drove out scores of Samish people, creating a regional diaspora.
