stop time intro

Unread post by Dooder » Fri Dec 05, 2003 4:59 pm

so we've had a little bad weather today, which means my classes were cancelled and i had a little time on my hands. so i decided to pull out the ol' Folsom Field DVD and try and work on warehouse a little bit. and i got to thinking...whats the deal with the "whoo!" during the stop time intro? i've been hearing it on live versions for years, and even done it myself at a concert without thinking twice. does anybody know why people do this, why it was started, or anything like that?

it started at 6/27/99 because stefan was pumping his fist, and it kinda caught on.
