And yet, somehow still better than last year.

3/4 artists became popular this century.

A reminder it's the year 2026.

I know Motley Crue (pass) and Three Days Grace. This isn't for me, either, but I hope it's entertaining for those who do attend.

Not for me either but this would be a ton of fun to go to. It's true that Vince is toast but don't think for a second that there aren't tons of 80s hair metallers out there who'd go anyway. TDG have been around for almost a quarter century as well and can almost be considered "classic" now (lol).

I think the best part is that the stadium is getting a good workout as a big concert/festival venue on the reg now. Very important public asset.

On a related topic, why is it that Winnipeg isn't getting any big outdoor concerts like we used to.

For comparison, Edmonton seems to have become a destination for outdoor gigs.

2025
2 Morgan Wallen concerts

2026
Post Malone and Jelly Roll
AC / DC
Guns N' Roses
Foo Fighters
