Rumour Grand Final entertainment 2019

[BigVic]

Paul Kelly would be awesome

High over the hill
Looking over the bridge to see the MCG
I’m way up on high
The clock on the silo
Says eleven degrees
I remember, I remember
I go in leaps and bounds

Billy Brownless on MMM just now, running with Robbie Williams.

Given the significant delay in announcement, they either have something massive or nothing
I'm leaning towards the latter

 

[StillAtLarge]

Hopefully paul kelly doesn't eat tones and i arse on stage

AFL Finals 2019: Aussie icon Paul Kelly to headline 2019 AFL Grand Final entertainment

The AFL knows how to make gravy: get Paul Kelly for the grand final

www.foxsports.com.au

Confirmed. Last performance of Waltzing Matilda was by the Idol Final 12 in 2004

 

[Black Panther]

The after match "party" is going to be a pretty morbid affair

I wonder if John Williamson is going to pull the same trick as he did for the Cats/Dons Country game

"Please rise from your seats as I sing Waltzing Matilda" ... in which about half did and the other half looked at each other in bewildement

 

[BF Tiger]

Paul Kelly, John Williamson, Mike Brady... yawn! And the others I don't know. So if the Tigers win it all I'm heading straight to the party on Punt Rd.

 

[Billy ray]

Pretty underwhelming. Paul kelly will be good as he can easily choose 3/4 songs that will go well.
Be good if he covered a killers song.

I legit to google the songs of the other ones

 

[LifeSpan-Void]

Ah well, the bogans will be happy at least. Might delay the punch ons by a few minutes

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Paul Kelly, really uplifting stuff. So ****ing boring. Ignore the hype about him, listen to his actual, songs, he is utter shite.

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Gojira

I will raise you these guys. This would be awesome, could get rid of all the cheer squads:

 

[Xtreme]

And they want a twilight/night grand final just to push their entertainment angle. Utterly laughable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike Brady is all you need for 5-10 minutes of entertainment. Then bounce the ball!

It’s done on a reverse bidding system.
Gil lowers his offer with each new contact to see who will do it for the cheapest, until we reach “Tones and I” for $22.50.

Hopefully Paul Kelly doesnt bring out AB Original

 

[Juggs Magnetic]

Hopefully paul kelly doesn't eat tones and i arse on stage

Is this a possibility?

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Puke

Kelly's appearance will be his second at a grand final following 2012, when he shared the stage with You Am I frontman and fellow footy fan Tim Rogers.
Younger fans will be catered to with support from dance-pop performer Tones and I – aka Toni Watson – and Dean Lewis, the Sydney singer-songwriter whose break-up anthem Be Alright spent five weeks atop the ARIA chart last year. Lewis will also perform at the free Premiership Party following the game.

I like the after party idea. It worked fine with the The Living End, The Killers, even Barnsey, but Dean Lewis?

 

[jimbler]

Kristofferson is touring. Me and Bobby McGee and Sunday Morning Coming Down would go down a treat.

Well there's some good news. I seriously thought he'd died about 10 years ago.

Hopefully Tones and I arse doesn't eat Paul Kelly on stage

Would prefer dean martin and jerry lewis

A bit disappointed the bloke who dresses up like Darth Vader and shreds his bass to 80's power ballads every weekend didn't get a gig

Needs more Funky Bunny

Sounds like after giving all their money to Coniglio the AFL could only afford acts who last appeared minimum half a decade ago.

How drab is that lineup. Even the Espy would pull a better billing on a Monday night.

Its sad how true this comment is....

We have moved on from booking has-beens to never-have-beens... Cant necessarily say we have regressed, but we definitely havent moved forward either.
