Columbia 1983
Columbia at Princeton
October 8th, 1983
Outcome Unknown
And now for something completely different: The Princeton University Band takes an up-close and personal look at psychology.
“Princeton Forward”
All right, Band, step into my office and let us probe the inner folds of your psyche. Here, sit on the couch, Band. On second thought, get off the furniture. Now it’s time for a little word association. Just say the first thing that pops into your head. Ready? Mother…(“superior”); hand…(“cuff”); hair…(“net”); blow…(“pong”); big…(“10”); jack…(“in the box”); tastes great…(“less filling”). Hmmm. From this test, we can tell you’ve been spending too much time with Tom Wright…(“WRONG”). Forming a rubber room on the field, the Band bounces back.
“I Love Lucy” (Band forms square)
This is a test of the emergency Rorschach system. For the next sixty seconds, the Band will test your creative thinking and originality. —-tone—- If this had been an actual dirty joke you would have been instructed where to go in your area. This is a test; this is only a test. Forming the ever-popular ink blot on the field, the Band asks the musical question, “Do you see what I see?”
“Hey, Look Me Over” (Band forms and ink blot…you know, a blob)
All right, Band, step into my office and let us probe the inner folds of your psyche. Oh, no! Have you ever experienced that strange phenomenon known as Deja Vu? Have you ever experienced that strange phenomenon known as Deja Vu? Forming a rubber room and fearing the outside world, the Band says, “I hear you knocking but I can’t get out.”
“I Hear You Knocking, But You Can’t Come In” (after the Columbia Band has just played it five times) (Band forms a square as before)
And now the Band will execute an incredibly complicated formation to test your perception. Remember that this is a daring and dangerous maneuver. The Band members are trained professionals and wear special protective clothing. Please do not attempt to duplicate this yourself. Forming an intricate optical illusion on the field, the Band asks, “Which of these two lines appears longer to you?” and demonstrates that the Band is composed of many multiple personalities.
“Schizo Song” (This is a medley of several very different songs–split personality time)
And now the Band makes like a personality and splits.
