Lenny Kravitz
I was all set to bemoan the fact that an American had been chosen to provide the half-time entertainment at the Grey Cup game, when, just as I prepared to put thoughts out on this blog, on came Lenny Kravitz - the aforementioned American.
The guy and his band were phenomenal. And don’t tell anybody, but they were the highlight of the game for me! So, eventhough I bemoan the apparent declining relevance of the Grey Cup to most Canadians, and eventhough this most Canadian of institutions should probably have had a Canadian performer hired to do the half-time show, Kravitz rocked!
I’ll forgive him for being an American.
By the way, anybody remember when the Grey Cup game was a bigger deal in this country than the Super Bowl? I do. And those days are gone. Sad.
