I noticed a lot of new music at the Garden this year and would like to add to my Celtics playlist.  I know all of the usual songs like:

Kayne West - Stronger
Ozzy - Crazy Train
50 Cent / Justin Timberlake - AYO Technology
GNR - Welcome to the Jungle
Dropkick Murphys - Shiping Out to Boston
Bee Gees - Yoou Should Be Dancing

Can anyone help fill in some of the gaps? Thanks!

Bumping this thread... there is this song they play during pregame warmups in the last couple of games I've gone to. There's a pause in the song and Rondo would throw the ball up vertically really high. Can anyone tell me the name of this song?  I don't think it's one of the songs previously listed. Thanks so much!

Bring back the old Boston Garden organ and play the Mexican Hat Dance. Get rid of the cheerleaders. Show hi-lights of other games on the jumbotron. Or show the NBA games.
The beatings will continue until morale improves

yeah, i'm old school and miss this as well.  it was the early 90's when brown, shaw and lewis asked for the organ to be put in mothballs...  i kinda miss it.  made this franchise different from the others...but time moves on.

I've heard this songs (or excerpts) for a while now but I just don't know their names, so maybe someone can help me :

What's the name of the song played at the end of the games? Usually you hear "Celtics win" from the PA and then some Irish "chors" with some drums. I think there is the word "Boston" in the lyrics but not sure ; and the crowd sings "hey hey".

Also, there is a song played at the end of games but between timeouts, just before key possessions usually. Unfortunately I don't have more details about this one, but maybe someone knows its title!

The one after we win is  "Shipping Up to Boston" by the Dropkick Murphy's

It got a lot of play after The Departed movie, then it got big with the Red Sox, and now it's big with every boston sport and played everywhere all the time.

I really can't think of the other song at all

Get rid of the cheerleaders.

Yep. We have the worst crew of cheerleaders in the league and they dance to the worst music possible. They need new talent or a new choreographer. That's what my gf says anyways and I trust her eye for cheerleader talent.

I also think the same old stuff is getting old. After about the 500th time, "welcome to the jungle" gets pretty boring and has lost its luster by being played in 99% of arenas in the league. The new intro they do before the tip isn't as good as the "lux aterna" from the championship year and doesn't have the same effect.

It also seems to me that the special little pump up the crowd clips they play in the 4th quarter are happening less and less. These are usually my favorite part of the in-game entertainment and are seemingly being dropped to show the "peanut butter jelly time" guy.

Ah man. I'm starting to sound like a bitter old fart.  ;D

50 Cent / Justin Timberlake - AYO Technology


I was so disappointed when they stopped using Ayo Technology for pregame intros this season.  The opening beat was awesome for intros.

Thanks for the answer, TP, I've been searching this song for a while!
