We have no talented Australian musicians evidently.

I wrote a song for Elixuh once and he liked it!

We go for crap like Kiss when we have Parkway Drive.

Yep, Parkway Drive, Northlane, Hands Like Houses, Birds Of Tokyo, heck Ian's other band Karnivool.

Even some indie pop like Sheppard or Glades would go down well.

I saw you rocking to Kiss at the granny...don't lie!

Sheppard were part of the 2020 GF entertainment

 

[Grasshopper17]

Can't believe I forgot to mention Ocean Grove. Brilliant live act. Some very fine stadium rock.

Just realised Birds of Tokyo have done it twice too.

 

[RandomPest]

Get King Gizz cowards

Would be worth it just for the reactions to a 25 minute psychadelic jam as the entire pre game show.

 

[Elixuh]

We should follow the NRL model and get Temper Trap to play every single event, even year, on repeat.

Another brilliant live Aussie act

If all else fails, go the AFLW route and just get G-Flip every year or so to do it lol

I'm not a massive fan but yeah sure why not. Even team up with Tones And I. Given G Flip's on drums the dynamic would work well on stage.

I'm an old guy with fairly eclectic musical tastes so take this in that context.

Robbie Williams with all those scantily clad ladies in pink who moved as gracefully as a tractor singing bad covers and elevator hits from 25 years ago was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. My daughter and I just pissed ourselves all the way through it.

Kiss are plain embarrassing . I mean they were embarrassing when they were at their peak but to still be doing the same crap at 60 plus and getting paid for it and us having to put up with it is perplexing.

The pathetic cultural cringe that entices the AFL and many others I might add to pay all these has beens a bucketload and amp it up with a lot of pre recorded backup so they can at least sound like they used to is (imo) pathetic.

Get some authentic local and original artists and give them a big platform to perform and promote our own country. With some decent new music.

 

[Elixuh]

Ke$ha would probably be gettable

 

[martinson]

lol Jay Clark thinks the AFL is going to pay Katy Perry $5m for a 30min grand final performance. What a moron.

I missed this bit.

Katy goes around the world doing gigs for billionaire's children with her barren soulless music with the same catchy Riffs that Chuck Berry invented.

The AFL GF would be a huge stage for Aussie artists and we're dumb enough to hand over the cash and the accolades to over hyped Yanks who don't really need either.

A bit depressing really.

 

[martinson]

I feel sorry for that poor guy who wrote Up there Cazaly.

It's the only song he gets to sing for nearly 40 years and I'm sure we'll be wheeling him out of the nursing home to do it when I'm long gone.

Maybe they can go full radical and get he and Barnsey to screech it out together.

 

[bungalow_bill]

Iva Davies singing "Great Southern Land" would do it for me.

Icehouse doing whatever the fk they wanted for 30 minutes would do it for me. Unbelievable how good they still are live for a bunch of silver foxes.

 

[MSB ROYS]

I want TISM.

 

[McIvor]

Time to re-unite the boys out of Northcote, Victoria (close enough to Fitzroy)

 

[BuntonRules]

Harley Reid is picking the coach already?
Get King Gizz cowards

Angelsea womens footy team is on your side.https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-11...onsor-anglesea-womens-football-club/101661018

King Gizzard and the women's footy wizards​

Most decent country sports teams need sponsors.

Alongside a supportive mix of local accountants, plumbers and estate agents, the team managed to hustle up a unique sponsor — Melbourne band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.

 

[Elixuh]

 

[Grasshopper17]

A lot of teams we want to win this weekend struggling with players injured etc.

But I guess the silver lining is that some of them have also been copping it in the media which hopefully fires them up a bit. Collingwood, Bulldogs, Suns particularly.

 

[Grasshopper17]

It's ok guys, I got you. I'll take one for the team and say it so nobody else has to stick their neck out on this.

Anyone who hits "Disagree" I'll know sneakily agrees with me but doesn't want to say it, which I completely understand.

Pragmatism over principles

COME ON COLLINGWOOD!

 

[martinson]

Everyone knows I'm a closet Pies groupie.

Your support means a lot Grasshopper.
