What's going on here - no announcement at all? Last year the Jonas Brothers were announced in June as the performer...we are just over a month away and nothing. Very strange...
Just do the racing dogs and the frisbee dogs while Fred Penner sings the cat came back and call it the best show in history.
CFL should be announcing the act next week!
I believe Nickelback signed a 10 year deal to play the half-time show every year for the next 10.
TayTay just confirmed she turned down the Super Bowl gig, so...maybe? ;)
Rush is touring next year, maybe we can get a preview?
Would be the most awesome halftime ever...

Maybe that's why the CFL couldn't announce it yet, until Rush announced their tour ??
That would be so awesome.
Slap-a da bass
I sure hope it's someone good. Pass on Rush not my think.
PJ/NY with crazy horse dual bill lol

It would be so funny yet impossible.

Don't dis Fred. I thought that halftime @PAS with him last year was the best one in ages.
As for Rush, I'm not a fan at all, but I think they'd put on a superb show. And they are SCTV fans, so that makes them OK in my book. Imagine that jumbo nose on the jumbotron! Scary!
If I got to choose, I'd do Fleetwood Mac. Even my wife might actually go to the game then (only Pinnacle indoor seats, of course, LOL).

No dis intended - I loved that halftime - crowd was singing their hearts out...combine that with the dogs - I would be happy

Well now you're swinging for the fence...don't know if you'll get lucky with a strike
Hope you got the reference.
But that would be my absolute perfect 1/2 time. Except not enough time. Saw them both the last time they were through here - separately of course - and can't imagine restricting either of them to 15-20 min, let alone together. So I would prefer to see them together here in Wpg, the logical place for them to come together, and plan for a long night.
Okay - just nerding out on some of the greatest music to ever happen, but it is a Bomber forum so I'll stop now.

Of course I got the reference. Only a few on here know my old PJ user name is a nod to the band. I also have seen them both many times and was joking but everytime we talk halftime I bring them up. I went to the vote for change tour many years ago, missed Neil playing with PJ by one night. Fans were buzzing. I to have dreamed of the dual in Wpg for 20 years.
I would also be ok with:
Headstones
Sloan
Both very unlikely

Ummm... Cold Play? You could do the hug cam...
Rush thinks they are to special for GC likely. They'd be great though.
At they aren't getting the ridiculous Bad Bunny like the Super Bowl. Guy doesn't even sing in English. ***. :D
I want Goldmember with a banjo!!!
Isn't Shania about ready for another shot? Her McDonalds campaign seems to suggest she's looking for promotions.
If you can't get Rush, how about a Loverboy/Trooper/April Wine combo.
Would Burton Cummings / BTO be too old?
The game is on a Sunday, why not The Weeknd?
What are Avril Levigne and Bryan Adams doing these days?
If the NFL gets Bad Bunny, how about we counter with Shawn Mendes?
Arcade Fire? Alanis Morisette? Sum 41?
So many Canadian options, please, no "Three Doors Down"

I used to like Arcade Fire and suggested them in the past but the lead singer has a questionable past and a terrible idea / PR nightmare imo.
Would be ok with The Guess Who

Burton Cummings is playing a show here Thursday Nov 13. Nothing else listed after that...
Randy seems free after Nov 3. not sure he would be in town though. They will tour in 2026 as the Guess Who.

Last time we hosted the Grey Cup I went to see Loverboy, 5440 and Queen City Kids, they all put on a great show, at least for us 80's teenie boppers!!
