The problem I have with RATM and that whole angry rock genre is that it only targets one part of the Flames audience...the younger male. It kind of ignores all the kids, families, women, older people (ie. season ticket holders) that are there too, and that you want to attract. The Dome is best when it's a cross-section of people attending.
With all the drunk rednecks and amped-up bros fighting each other in the stands, I think there's already a little too much anger at the Dome. I'm not saying you have to play Happy Happy Joy Joy as your goal song, but it would be nice if the atmosphere was a little more loose and fun.
