'This was my dream:' Talking goal songs, fandom and destiny with Andrew W.K.

Andrew W.K. had to wear a hoodie over the white T-shirt. Consol Energy Center was that cold.

That's where we spoke to W.K. on Wednesday; the Penguins, with a push from its fanbase, is playing his 2001 song "Party Hard" after goals, and he was in town to host — you guessed it — a party later that night against the Rangers.

Last season, an ongoing joke in the press box was that it was tough to remember what the Penguins' used as a goal song, even a minute after the goals themselves. They opted for "Kernkraft 4000" and "Rock And Roll, Part II" a lot.
