Too much speculation, not enough facts. Perhaps someone could find out just how much the appearance fee might actually have been, that might give us a better idea if it was worth the effort.

Artist choice not the reason for my attendance, and I just tuned out, but I did see at least one lass at the event who was clearly a fan of Reece (?) and not necessarily there for the basketball.

Some people need to stop hating and start supporting. I have no idea who Mastin is - and couldn't care less for his teenage anxtey packaged pop - but he fit he family theme they were trying to attract. And overall, the whole package of the day put on by the NBL was far better than I expected. A few hiccups, but an enjoyable afternoon.

Nothing says "fresh" like having Neil Diamond blasting over the speakers at the ASG

Good point, Ricey. He draws a lot of kids and as a result would not come too cheap.
Which makes it all the more sensible that the NBL chose him for the ASG. I really don't think this game has much appeal to basketball fans, so I think the league is wise to look down other avenues to get people into seats.
As someone who would enjoy seeing Bliss N Eso or HH I definitely feel dirty sticking up for Reece, but I do think he is the one more likely to get people along on the basis of 2 or 3 songs.

No need to get steamed up Ricey. It's good there is some musical entertainment.

You're not looking for a good night?

I actually don't think it's such a bad idea.

Basketball fans who are going to go to the game anyway aren't going to change their minds just because they don't care for the singer, and on the other hand there will be other people for whom the ASG wasn't even on their radar but will go to see Reece. A few extra childrens tickets sold is still better than those seats being empty.
