March 21Mar 21 comment_747760 Really hope we get a big concert for half time that isn’t some country fried hick stuff.
March 22Mar 22 comment_747765 I'm doing all my vacationing in Canada this year so I'm there and hopefully the blue and gold will be too! halftime acts always suck live. you could put the Beatles or the Who out there and they'd suck. stadiums sound terrible.
March 22Mar 22 comment_747769 Praying for another appearance so we can just party for like two weeks straight. What a ******* time. And then the Only Curling Trials right after GC with some legit threats for MB in that... Could just be an incredible fall/winter for the Bison...

Last year I asked myself, is there a rule that a half time show has to be music? Go off the charts and bring in a high end comedian who does a set on football. 🙂

March 22Mar 22 comment_747782 It's the Grey Cup....it's the CFL.... It's TSN. The budget is limited, and it's at the mercy of record labels and the title sponsor. If Twisted Tea is the title sponsor, they want to target their ideal demo.... The 20ish year old kids... With whatever those people are listening to.

Yup I get that so emphasizes the obvious importance of adding to the sponsor list so your options go up.

But I can guarantee you it's a slog for them. The CFL isn't as easy a sell among the masses as we want it to be. Unfortunately major businesses aren't beating down the door to sponsor it.
March 23Mar 23 comment_747810 I expect to be underwhelmed by the half time show but I'm 48 and I know I am not the target audience for sponsors anymore.

The Super Dogs were great. That was one halftime show I dearly missed when I moved to Calgary. They do have dogs out here & they're really good as well. However, the Stamps barely booked them. I just preferred the Super Dogs, I love dogs... Humans don't deserve them.

The large portion of the cfl market is probably 30-50 men. But the aim is to try n get the youngins to brand in. A really big Canadian act would be great. with the elbows up campaign and massive ground swell of national pride locking in a show like that before the season would help bring in more eyes.
March 23Mar 23 comment_747829 I don't care who performs just as long as they aren't interviewed during the game. Keith Urban is not alone in this criticism.

In game interviews in general suck, virtually always when none player/coaches. Just shouldn’t do that type of thing.

Who's a big Canadian Pop act right now? I legitimately have no idea... I know SOME of the new Canadian country acts (which do have a big following as that genre is popular right now) but I haven't known any Canadian Pop acts since Carly Rae Jepsen...
