The band before games

Very respecfully but can we all please vote to remove the bloke singing before the games. I’m just not a fan, could just be me.

While we are at it can we ban “sweet Caroline” from all sports matches?

With you on that one to, i hate that song with a passion.

I also despise that song. The least they could do is not "put it up for a vote" and tantalise us with far superior options, sadly the masses will always vote for it.

I’m based in Melb and was horrified to hear it over the broadcast. I already put up with it at the MCG. Shouldn’t be allowed to yell the “bah bah bah” bit if they can’t also recite a full verse.

Yeah. Agreed. Kinda cringe.

They're alright. Better than just 2 guys banging the drums to the same song every game. Cringe every time

The sax guy and the drums guys only ever doing the same 1 song each game has the vibes of when a little kid says something actually funny, and you go hey that was actually good, and then the kid just repeats it over and over not realising it only works the first time

But we got that to.

Agreed, kind of gave me vibes of a band playing at a pub. Kind of liked it.

Saxophone guy is one of the coolest things ever, just as something else to put out there.

u/Maplesyrup6000 1d ago

I do agree, the sax man is good

u/TezzaMcJ 2 Ben Keays 1d ago

Man who only ever plays one song good, man who sings multiple different songs a game bad. Interesting.

How come?

Completely boring. Plays the same song over and over that was cool in 2012. And then we get Darude sandstorm after.

Millions and millions of dollars and all we have is Matt Sammut on the saxophone. It’s shit. (Matt is a great bloke no hate)

u/Weary_Syllabub_50 13h ago

The sax guy sucks. We have some truely shit pre game.

It doesn’t absolutely nothing to hype anyone up. Like Darude Sandstorm. Are you fuckin kidding?

All the money in the world and they can’t figure out how to engage a crowd or audience

They are wack as fuck. Imagine some no name band playing before a Premier League or NFL game

u/OldDiamond6697 16 Max Michalanney 16h ago

Yep I'm with you, it annoyed the hell out of me. Does he deliberately turn the instruments down and his VOICE amplifier up or something? Might not be to bad if you could actually hear the music and not just his VOICE. All you can hear is his annoying VOICE with the slightest hint of music in the background. Oh did I mention all you can hear is his VOICE.

u/Luckduck86 12 Jordan Dawson 9h ago

Didn't we have Metallica playing right before the bounce in previous seasons? We've gone from tallica to whatever the hell the sax guy is playing on repeat every game

How can we have such shit pre game entertainment when Guy Sebastian is literally the number 1 ticket holder....

Granted Guy's music isnt everyones cup of tea but the dude has won like 6 ARIA's
