You just know the AFL will phone it in and get some washed up overseas band like Muse or Kings of Leon
Tash Sultana (if she’d wish to) … and a washed up old Australian legendary band should do it …

Alex, you have have too far my young friend
That is because music died in the 90s and beyond.
Went last year. Actually a fun day out, lines for food and beer were a bit crazy tho.
Can we get The Angels with whoever their singer is now, probably Mark Williams, I dunno.
Let’s get a hundred thousand people shouting that response.

Not true.
You just gave up trying to find good music in the 90’s.
Good music is around, it just won’t be given to you on a platter (radio and tv).

I wasn’t going to respond because it was so ‘old man yells at cloud’, but the nineties contains the most remarkable four months of album releases in music history.

Think they’re pretty much the Brewster bros and various Brewster offspring these days. Dave Gleeson (Screaming Jets) was the singer until recently.

Like what ?
The 90’s was sensational.
Being a teenager in the 90’s. I was so lucky to have the best indie music of any generation given to me.
But people do just give up on trying to find new music……And resort to consuming the same old same old.
Most older people wouldn’t even know that Australian band Tame Impala is in the top 3-4 biggest bands in the world.

Community cup artist line up is always f*cking awesome.
Those artists are more likely to be picked up by NRL, than the AFL.
NRL grand final performers are constantly 100x better than the AFL every year.
Probably some truth in that as music in pubs started fading away and my kids were at the age where they demanded time. I did listen to the Wiggles a great deal.
Since you ask.

Saw Tame Impala at Meredith Music Festival in 2008. Kevin Parker is a genius.

You can guarantee that the artist who performs at the AFL grand final, were once huge 20-30 years ago…… but nobody gives a f*ck about them anymore.
Classic AFL. I can just imagine the AFL commission braining storming bands of who they want for the Grand final…. A bunch of middle aged corporates going through their CD collections.
Absolute no clue.
But if cannot get them on vinyl, then the must be no good.
