Anybody jacked up to see.......
"The Who" perform at halftime? Although I am a huge 'classic rock fan' I never have been much of a 'Who fan' music wise.
I realize that the baby boomers are still the largest generation to appease along with the "Timberlake/Jackson" sexual assault show debacle a few yrs back and why the NFL just decided to stay with the "safe classic rock standards" for now. But I am surprised that "The Who" were chosen because of the Pete "Child Porn" Townsend controversy. Considering how Gooddell and the NFL supposedly want a 'squeeky clean' image (except of course 'their own players') Daltry's voice is gone and Pete will play to (if not with) the children. Can't wait Your thoughts? |

I heard Townsend and Daltry played Pinball Wizard during one of their setups/sound checks this week. It just happened to coincide with one of the media blitzes in the stadium.

The Who kicks ASS live. Saw them at Arrowhead a few years ago, and although I wasn't a BIG fan going in, I sure was coming out.

I'd always liked the Who a lot but I wasn't expecting them to sound lile they were in their prime. I've seen a lot of great bands in concert but to this day that might be the best show I've ever seen. It's funny. Back then I was expecting a bunch of old men on stage giving it a valiant effort but they blew me away. Hard to believe that was over twenty years ago. Now I never underestimate the older bands. I've seen Van Morrison twice and he puts on as good a show as anyone. I've recently seen The Allman Brothers and they rock like nobody's business, too. |

I can't remember the last time I watched a SB halftime show.
When I'm watching football, I want to see football highlights at half time. I could not give a rat's ass about halftime shows.

People piss me off.
I'm still at a loss trying to figure out why I never get invited to parties.

That's about how I feel about halftime. Halftime is for getting up to get more beer, more food, scratch the nuts and get ready for the 3rd quarter.

I miss when they had Celebrity Deathmatch during halftime. I wish they'd do something like that again.

In this case, lip syncing may be in order. Daughtry cannot still have the pipes after 30 years of minimal work.
