  • Really hope we get a big concert for half time that isn’t some country fried hick stuff.

    Stewart Johnston is going to head out to the field with an impact wrench and move the goalposts to the back of the endzone for the halftime show. And you will feel the excitement level increase.

    Fred Penner did half time recently and it rocked. Whole stadium singing along to the cat came back.

So what's the deal with the furor surrounding these passes? They decided to combine the concerts and the team parties and that make it harder to secure team party access? Is there less supply than there has been in other Grey Cups?

That seems to be the case. Hard to understand why the Grey cup committee thought that would be a good idea. Like I understand having that be an option, but not the only option. Unless I'm missing something. 

I was hoping to get to a party or two. But I'm not buying a concert ticket that I don't want in order to get to them.

$$$$$$$

If you ever wonder why, that's the answer.

Got my passes during the first go round. Very excited to take in everything that week. Think we're getting Paisley tickets at the arena that week too... Going to be lots of cool stuff to check out even if we're not in the game.

The main issue is that the passes sold out early.

Most of the backlash has come from out of town fans who say they were never advised that the passes were on sale to begin with.

These are people that go to the Grey Cup every year so you'd think they would have looked into things ahead of time to secure tickets. They could have easily just checked ticketmaster to see the passes for sale.

The other issue is people expected there to be single day passes as some fans will be getting in on Friday or Saturday.

This concern was removed yesterday when day passes were made avaliable.

Just think of the concerts as being a bonus.

In 2022 Regina had 3 day passes for 104 bucks to get into the team parties. This didn't include any concerts.

Not sure if I missed this but apparently GC half time show headliner to be announced on E Talk or some such nonsense tonight at 7pm ET....

^^ all I can find so far is this Insta link...

Their IG profile says "Celebrity interviews, entertainment news & more!".   I can't believe I've never heard of this undoubtedly great source for CFL news before,

Plus you were still in Regina.

Notice how it says update and not announcement? 

It could mean nothing but I guess we'll find out.

Absolutely... I'm assuming it's the GC half time show but absolutely could be a nothing burger.

MGK. What a disappointment.

It's not country so I don't hate it but I'm definitely not a MGK fan.  Was expecting worse TBH.

Pretty much this,  for me. I was expecting some lame-ass country singer.

I’m not a fan of either pick, but I think mgk is a better fit with the target demo and players than country. I mean, I think he’s pretty close to pop country, but atleast he’s in a better direction. 

Pass thing, they shouldve done some staggered release of tickets and added more. 

I only know who that is from SNL making fun of him and his wife.

Huge OLP fan tho so that'll be great...

What we might expect. From an NFL game in Germany last year.

 

 

 

I listened to some of his stuff yesterday and didn't hate it. Kinda Post Malone-ish...

He is all over the place genre-wise. Some of his pop punk revival stuff is listenable. His biggest problem is being a giant ******.

Edit: apparently d-bag is censored.

Is that the chick with big toes as thumbs 😉

The reality is, football fans come to watch football. The half time act is for everyone else . In that sense, good pick 

What's the big ****** deal lol who cares
