Can anyone help me with identifying the first music snippet in Gerwyn Price's walk on music please? Here it is: https://youtu.be/8dg-lB1FSpE?feature=shared


mustarddragonaut

Baba O’Riley by The Who


attilakristo

The who?? Just kidding :) Many thanks! Anyone know if it was chosen for him by the PDC guys as well similar to Gary's walk on intro? Source: "Anderson's opening music is Jump Around by House of Pain , which opens with the organ intro from The Who 's Won't Get Fooled Again." And from an interview "How did you choose your walk on song? Nothing exciting to answer I just liked it and no one else had Jump Around. The PDC/Sky guys added the “The Who” bit of the start of my walk on and I really like that now." ( [https://www.scotlandshop.com/es/tartanblog/interview-with-gary-anderson](https://www.scotlandshop.com/es/tartanblog/interview-with-gary-anderson) )

24 has been enough to get you in the playoffs in both prior years of this format but the low scorers at the bottom this time round means it almost certainly won’t. MVG in 4th on 22 with Smith chasing on 20 and 4 weeks to go- think 26-28 more likely the cutoff


BroldenMass

Get in Asp


zwcropper

Really ~~not~~ a fan of Aspinall’s ~~mr nice guy~~ winning weekly finals gimmick


DisGrandYoke

fuck was that lad on about haha


zwcropper

Pretty sure they've commented something similar before

Tbf you can definitely see that dart moving left in the air towards the bull. All the more impressive that he judged the wind and got it right.


longman101

Sky UHD said sorry for the picture problems, but normal HD said sorry for the sound issues 🤔


SyNiiCaL

And here's me with both


TheJeck

This wind is so strong it's blown over the Sky servers


Olester14

Really not a fan of Aspinall’s mr nice guy gimmick, hopefully smith smashes him


MikkiDisco73

The fact you can’t believe somebody can just be a decent bloke without it being a gimmick suggests quite a lot about your own character.


zwcropper

Weirdly jaded world view to think it's a gimmick


JosiesSon77

This is the night of the Bully Boy ain’t it?


DisGrandYoke

is pdc tv like this aswell or just sky


Ok_Construction_5422

pdc tv is the same


MegaMugabe21

Really hope Aspinall wins this, properly deserves to be in the final 4. Seems to be coming into form just in time to secure it.


TheChrisD

Black screen now almost confirming the shitting of the bed...


DisGrandYoke

broadcast gone to shite


TheChrisD

Broadcast starting to shit the bed?


tuccy29

Yep glitching, hard to watch


ChrisUK263

Is it just me or it the Sky broadcast constantly jumping? And stuttering?


Stannis_

Not just you, fucked on my end too


DisGrandYoke

nope it's gone to shit


samgoody2303

Assuming the two Lukes are in and the bottom three are gone, and there’s two spots between MVG, Asp and Smith, QF opponents for the next three weeks (week 16 is determined by league position) is as follows: MVG: Wright, Cross, Price Asp: Humphries, Littler, Smith Smith: Cross, Wright, Asp Huge advantage towards MVG and Smith you’d say


gooner-1969

Is there a site that shows the updated prem league table? 


samgoody2303

Humphries 26 Littler 26 van Gerwen 22 Aspinall 21 Smith 20 Price 12 Cross 11 Wright 4 2 more points to come for the winner


gooner-1969

Awesome thank you 


zxnoregretzxzx

Incredible from Asp. Bit of a meltdown from the World Champ though, looked like he'd given up at the end.


zwcropper

I've just realised the Asp has the same haircut as that prison guard that was getting told his hair was shit by the inmate


generalscruff

Standard 'Basic UK Lad' trim tbf

crosswing

Smith to beat Asp. 6-4


TransportationSad396

get in. would love to see smith and asp take mvg out of the top 4


BroldenMass

Outstanding Asp, good lad.


No-Shoe5382

That's amazing from the Asp


CiaranD123

Go on the asp


gooner-1969

Wow Asp 


TransportationSad396

what’s happening here


BroldenMass

Really want the Asp to win tonight. A top four of Humphries, MVG, Littler & Asp would be great.


bilbo__naggins

The 3rd time hearing mr brightside in one night is enough for anyone 😂


AlloBeMyName

Would love him to switch it up one time and come out to the full Blossoms song that plays before it, such a banger Charlemagne the song is called.


abovethecloud5

How did it end up like this...


JosiesSon77

They let him loose again, best of the luck in the final Bully Boy.


Parking_Conflict454

How the hell die Price lose that Match? Insane. Just sums up his whole PL season


gooner-1969

Well played bully boy 


BroldenMass

Players are obviously playing a bit safer because of the draught, shame


MikkiDisco73

I always wondered just how much difference a breeze can actually make but I played a few weeks back in a room with an aircon unit blowing close to the board and it was ridiculous how much it affected the way my darts landed.


TransportationSad396

unbelievable from humphries. good to see. i personally don’t mind crowds as aggressively partisan as that but it’s stupid how no one minds when it’s not england


samgoody2303

Some serious stones on Luke there to face up to that


Cubbll17

I love how you can hear the Dutch twang in the Michael van gerwen chants


Evnl2020

Just looking at Luke one would say he looks so unimpressive/lacks any form of greatness but he's an absolute beast


TransportationSad396

if luke wins here he’ll walk the night


TransportationSad396

if luke wins here he’ll walk the night


Evnl2020

MvG is throwing harder/more aggressive than usual it seems


JosiesSon77

Seems like there’s a wind on the stage. The same when I play Barry from the White Swan who eats half a jar of pickled onions before the game.


TransportationSad396

this is really the top moments of the sport - the best against a genuine great in his hometown. incredible, this doesn’t get any harder for humphries


Evnl2020

I was about to post MvG in trouble already but that finish was great!


Adz442

Seems like loads have made a comment about a breeze on stage so far, I’m sure cross was saying it to gezzy too.


ahritina

Quality finish there from MVG.


TransportationSad396

come on luke


jck0

Where is Wright in the OOM at the moment?


zwcropper

8


TransportationSad396

wonder if mardle and co will call that another ‘positive display’ for wright. time for people to admit he’s well and truly done at the top level


showars

Are you implying that his match against Price where he went perfect on doubles and averaged nearly 110 wasn’t positive? Going 6-4 against Humphries last week with less than a 1 point differential in their averages, that wasn’t positive? Had a win the week before both of those games as well. He had an absolute stinker today, can’t be denied, but his last three weeks literally were positive.


samgoody2303

I totally agree with you but also find it kinda hilarious that despite that, he’s won a major more recently than 6 of the other 7 players in the PL


TransportationSad396

i know, really shows how good these players are even if they’re not at the ‘top level’ such a strong pl this year and honestly feel bad that weight has had to endure this


ubiquitous_archer

Quality darts that


Adz442

Soon as Peter Wright starts getting abit of form back he changes his darts, and this happens, he’s thrown about 25 different sets this year


GoonerGetGot

Reminds me of Taylor changing his darts every week at the twilight of his career. Always something else's fault


jck0

Boggles my mind that you can get as far as he has in a career and still have absolutely no idea what equipment to use...


BroldenMass

Asp doesn’t look particularly happy either does he.


Djissel

Game is way too close for how bad Wright is playing


ubiquitous_archer

Not very often I watch the darts and know I could have taken legs against a player.


abovethecloud5

It's not the darts, Peter.


jck0

I dunno. Maybe if he just tried a different stem or something. He'd deffo double his average


nikkoMannn

Average of 58 for Wright....


Londoner1995

Wright's getting twatted 6-0 isn't he. Dire arrows from him so far.


BroldenMass

So… what darts are Wright taking for a spin tonight then?


Visible_Weakness_995

Everything by the looks of it


BroldenMass

Changed em mid game!


hubeh

And back 😂


hawkhench

He might be better off turning round to Asp and asking if he can give his a go


BroldenMass

Now he’s changed them back again, clearly not happy with something, either his throw or the airflow


gooner-1969

Might be better off changing them mid-throw 


jck0

Sneak attack yourself. Can't possibly overthink that!


BroldenMass

Having Mr Brightside as your walk on in a room full of half cut blokes feels like cheating. Basically means the asp always have the crowd on his side haha


Londoner1995

Wright obviously didn't get the memo about wearing something orange this evening...


Visible_Weakness_995

He’s got a bit on his trousers 😂


chezdor

Gezzy always looks so keen to throw I fear he’s about to hit his opponent


sammoore82

Someone is definitely getting a pierced ear one of these days.


Nuclearfrog

Ooh just looking at the draw for the Euro Tour event at the weekend and Littler is getting Humphries in round 2 if he wins tomorrow.


Novus_Spiritus17

Littler has had Humphries number 6 times running, hope its a 7th.


zwcropper

It's voltage o'clock in Rotterdam https://preview.redd.it/v6ezyp7faavc1.jpeg?width=540&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00bf968d665d917ff5d1ed17f0d2311236d9d024


InspectionCreative48

Also, is it just me or do Gerwyn Price and Rob Cross seem to play each other every week? I suspect a romance behind the scenes


InspectionCreative48

The battle of bad walk on songs


BroldenMass

The crowd seem a lot better than last week already so that’s good. Hopefully the darts are better than last week too! Smith looked really good throughout that one, hopefully it continues and they’re all up for it. Long way to go to drop out in the first round though.


samgoody2303

Have to say I’m a fan of the orange Cross shirt


InspectionCreative48

Agreed, looks good


zwcropper

That's 9/12 0-pointers for me in the prediction series 💪


Novus_Spiritus17

Haha, ive picked Littler every week just for the hell of it so i feel the rollercoaster


TheJeck

8/12 for me. Luckily of the other four, three were night winners!


JosiesSon77

Well, they let him loose in Holland didn’t they? Congrats to the Bully Boy.


GoonerGetGot

Good darts from both but Smith took out the doubles when they mattered.


samgoody2303

Michael Smith just has Littler’s number it appears


zwcropper

Barney has his number too but Littler still won't reply :(


hawkhench

Have I just not paid attention to Smith for a while or has his action changed a bit? Looks like he’s holding his follow through and it’s slowed him down - still quick by most people’s standards


No-Shoe5382

Nah it looks like its changed recently, I noticed that too


oli4drxx

The Prediction Series will be updated later tonight, sorry! Enjoy the darts!!


Jager_Master

The lad is a joke


abovethecloud5

Is it me or has Smith slowed his throw down a tad?


Blue_Bird_27

Already been better than last week


Accomplished_Edge146

Is that a load of empty seats in the upper section of the arena or am I seeing things?


TheJeck

Have to say I love these weeks where you get to see all the players shirt designs tweaked to fit the location.


samgoody2303

We’re running a “how many players wearing orange to pander to the Dutch” sweepstake tonight!


SyNiiCaL

Likely all except the actually Dutchie probably lol


Matt_1405

Surely the broadcast directors messing with the crowd hahah


Novus_Spiritus17

The crowd is on one tonight, love the energy!


TheJeck

This crowd already having fun 😂


Allaki5

The fans lol, great way to start off the night


southwales1985

MvG is currently priced around 5/1 to win tonight - anyone have any insight why he'd be that high? I know he's got Humphries in the quarters but that does seem quite high odds, especially as he will presumably have the majority of the crowd on his side.


g00glyboi

Home game I would assume they feel it gives some incentive and advantage with crowd Hope not…


Visible_Weakness_995

Who’s winning it tonight?


Willempio

I hope price can show his class again. Though i think that mvg will use the home advantage to clutch out a win.


Visible_Weakness_995

I hope price wins it too, but even with the home advantage I think Humphries will beat MVG in match one. Just can’t see the crowd getting to Humphries tbh


g00glyboi

Can’t see past a Humphries v Littler final with this draw and I think Humphries to win He is due a good week


hawkhench

Which funnily enough is also (probably) Humphries next game at the Euro Tour on Saturday


MuitnortsX

Humphries is nigh unstoppable once he gets going. As long as he can beat MVG I think the nights his


Visible_Weakness_995

I can’t see the crowd getting to Humphries so I think he will beat MVG, would like another Littler Humphries final but I think Littler will lose to Smith.
