Who should perform at next years Super Bowl?

[BigRedChief]

Doesn't seem like many people are happy with the way the half time show is done at the Super Bowl anymore. So lets come up with ideas and fix it. I'll send an email to the NFL with the winning idea and when next years Super Bowl half time show is our idea we can gloat.

Should it be some collection of singers/bands of an era's 60's, 70's, 80's kind of show?

A collection of genre music?

Get the newest and hottest talent every year?

Heres the link to Billboards top 200 to sort out your opinions.
http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/charts/chart_display.jsp?g=Albums&f=The+Billboard+200

Maybe the Super Bowl should do something other than music?

Speak your piece in here and we will take the top ten best ideas and create a poll for the Planet to vote on.

The history of who performed at each half time show:
http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/history/entertainment

Will edit this top 10 list for the poll as needed. The ones in BOLD have been nominated more than once.

Go to a traditional half-time with football X's and O's.

Bring back the marching bands.

Do a mix of new and old talent.

Get the hottest current band/singer.

AC/DC

Chili Peppers

Country artist. Toby Kieth?

Next year, you'll probably get Miley Cyrus. And surprise, everybody will bitch about it.

[Old Dog]

Doesn't matter much to me. That's when it's time to go take a leak.

I like when new talent sings with old talent.
Sometimes it works. Soemtimes it doesn't. Better than playing it safe though.

[Katipan]

NOT Bruce Springsteen

Heh. I was so bored, I caught some ass at halftime. Yay mute button.

[Katipan]

Sometimes it works. Soemtimes it doesn't. Better than playing it safe though.

Works when the new talent stays in its proper place as singer apprentice and lets the old talent shine.

[Katipan]

Like when Def Leppard sang with Taylor Swift

So I had to go look it up on youtube as I'd never heard it...

I really really liked it.

[Frazod]

Too bad a normal-length halftime with highlights and analysis isn't an option.

[ChiTown]

Heh. I was so bored, I caught some ass at halftime. Yay mute button.

:clap:

[The Franchise]

Honestly....I don't care anymore.

[Deberg_1990]

Super Bowl halftime 2010: Lil Wayne and Rick Springfield!

[Jilly]

So I had to go look it up on youtube as I'd never heard it...

I really really liked it.

right? plus her hotness really balances out the ugly factor that is def leppard...

[Reaper16]

I'm usually fine with it. Springsteen is an artist I didn't care about, but even then his performance was pretty bad. They were on such a roll, too. Prince? Fucking awesome. Tom Petty + Heartbreakers? Fucking Awesome.

[Jilly]

I don't care if it is phallic.... I want marching bands.

[OnTheWarpath15]

Too bad a normal-length halftime with highlights and analysis isn't an option.

This.

I'm sure the teams would appreciate it too.

Nothing like going from a 12 minute halftime to one that drags over 30 minutes.

[BigRedChief]

So I had to go look it up on youtube as I'd never heard it...

2001. aerosmith and Brittany Spears was an odd paring.

Aerosmith, *N'SYNC, Britney Spears, Mary J. Blige and Nelly.

[MahiMike]

Who cares. Let the chicks decide. Halftime is for them. The game is for the true football fan.

[Molitoth]

I watch the Super Bowl for the football game..... halftime is for taking a piss, getting more food, and bullshitting with friends. So personally I don't care who performs at halftime.

[BigRedChief]

The history of who performed at each half time show:
http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/history/entertainment

They were still doing this in 1987
Southern California-area high school drill teams and dancers.

[Nzoner]

Too bad a normal-length halftime with highlights and analysis isn't an option.

:thumb:

[Reaper16]

Also, they should throw black people a bone again sometime soon. Prince was an act that we all could enjoy.

[Katipan]

I don't care if it is phallic.... I want marching bands.

I never knew why I liked marching bands so much... It all makes sense now. Taking band in junior high. My dog eared copy of Music Man...

I'd totally watch the best college has to offer as marching bands. Don't really think I wanna watch 600 little kids tho.

[Katipan]

2001. aerosmith and Brittany Spears was an odd paring.

Aerosmith, *N'SYNC, Britney Spears, Mary J. Blige and Nelly.

Aerosmith and Run DMC was neat for the VMAs one year.

[BigRedChief]

This.

I'm sure the teams would appreciate it too.

Nothing like going from a 12 minute halftime to one that drags over 30 minutes.
I'd say we have our first nomination.

[Inspector]

Well, of course, obviously I'm going to say Vedera.

Next Super bowl might be a stretch for them now, but possibly the year after?

I'll keep my fingers crossed.

[Jilly]

Who cares. Let the chicks decide. Halftime is for them. The game is for the true football fan.

that's pretty sexist...but I'll let it slide for now, I guess

[Nzoner]

I'd say we have our first nomination.

Like the NFL is even going to entertain that thought,at least with so called superstar entertainment they can try and justify the ticket prices.

[Ultra Peanut]

Sublime

oh wait

TLC

[Bearcat]

Buckcherry.

[Jilly]

no kids...and no jazzercisers....this is my rule for halftime

[Deberg_1990]

that's pretty sexist...but I'll let it slide for now, I guess

haha. Your right.

But I think we can all agree that the Super Bowl has become far bigger than the game itself. Its the one game a year that everyone watches even if your not a fan of the NFL at all.

[Brock]

The history of who performed at each half time show:

Michael Jackson and 3,500 local children.

If they let the chicks decide it will be Oprah broadcasting from the 50 yard line.

[Bearcat]

Buckcherry.

If Buckcherry can't make it, Aretha Franklin, but only if she wears her hat again.


Let it ring. Ring. Ring. Ring.

[Extra Point]

What if halftime got Rick Rolled?

[Jilly]

If they let the chicks decide it will be Oprah broadcasting from the 50 yard line.

Oh my goodness. That would be perhaps the biggest and most epic Rick Roll of all time. Especially if they kept it a secret.

Shit, how much did you drink?

[Jilly]

I'd love to see Guns and Roses perform with like Joss Stone.

Garth Brooks would be cool...because, well, I don't like country all that much, but he is a hell of a performer.

Not in the sense of this thread that chicks = don't like football.

Can almost guarantee I'd call you a chick, babe, sweetheart, or darling in real life.

An encore performance would be great on three conditions

1.Get rid of all the additional musicians

2.Play a set of songs that shows his true brilliance

3.Play the concert like you play to your real fans and not some overblown hyped tv event.


Never happen.

[DMAC]

Not a fan, but...Foo Fighters put on a HELL of a show.

Also, they should throw black people a bone again sometime soon. Prince was an act that we all could enjoy.


I agree. I think it will be a black artist, mark my words.

[oldandslow]

I think they should go country...Toby Kieth or someone like that.

It would be a better match.

[Chiefnj2]

They should have something like the Jim Rose Circus.

Nobody will ever agree on what is a good or bad musical act. Everyone will agree that suspending a 15lb cinder block from a scrotal piercing deserves a round of applause.

[Ultra Peanut]

Garth Brooks would be cool...because, well, I don't like country all that much, but he is a hell of a performer.

I bet he does the Super Bowl in Dallas. Just a hunch.

[King_Chief_Fan]

every since the wardrobe malfunction, they haven't been the same. I don't think the entertainment is worth watching anymore. Let's leave like any other half time.

[mikeyis4dcats.]

I enjoyed the Aerosmith one a few years ago for the most part.

I didn't think Springsteen was that bad, but he's not someone I care about.

[OnTheWarpath15]

FAIL!

In 2004 Chicago and Earth Wind & Fire did a tour together. I've got the DVD of the L.A. outdoor show and it was great.

John Cougar Mellencamp seems like an obvious choice after Springsteen and Petty.

He fits that old white guy/classic rock/classic songs type.

He did the Chiefs/Donks Thanksgiving game.No he didn't. That was John Fogerty.

[Sully]

Taylor Swift would be nice to look at.
I'd love to see Def Leppard, even if they are getting old...but they definitely fit the profile.
But ultimately, I'll be peeing and probably having a cig at the time, so it doesn't matter much.

[BigRedChief]

nominations caught up to here.

Final 10 will be chosen based upon at least having 2 members nominate that act or idea.

[DeepPurple]

SKYNYRD

You mean Gary Rossington and the others.

Going back a few years ago before Hughie Thomasson quit, and with Dale Krantz on backup vocals and Rick Medlocke on guitar, I never understood why Skynyrd didn't perform any Rossington/Collins, Blackfoot or Outlaws songs in their show.

I saw Blackfoot on the Strikes tour with the Johnny Van Zant Band back around 1979, Rick Medlocke and Blackfoot put on a great show.

[DeezNutz]

How about a musician or some kind of act that is actually popular today? Not 15-35 years ago?

While true, I'm tired of seeing these old ****ers pretend to be young. It's over. You're not the same musician any longer.

It would be the equivalent of the Steelers starting Bradshaw at QB instead of Roethlisberger.

[MagicHef]

I ended up not being able to start watching the SB for about 30 minutes after it started, so I watched it delayed on my DVR. Fast forwarding to catch up to the live broadcast made this one of the best halftimes in quite awhile.

[DeezNutz]

maybe to a point, but stage presence isn't necessarily contingent on age. sports is a poor analogy, but there are the occasional Nolan Ryans out there.

I was being facetious with the Steelers reference.

There wasn't much in the way of stage presence yesterday, though. That was a ****ing disaster.

It takes a special person to be able to put on a good performance when he achieves dinosaur status.

True.

But I thought yesterday was embarrassing for the Boss. From his gestures on stage to his inability to articulate actual words.

Felt the same way about the Stones. One of the greatest bands of all time, no doubt. But also a complete fucking disaster.

I'd bring Springsteen back for an encore.


You want a band with bouncy, lively music, so if not Springsteen.......hey. I just realized that all of the other bands I like are dead.

[Rain Man]

Oh, wait. Matchbox 20. Are they still alive? They could do it as long as they didn't do their songs about mental illness and stuff.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Oh, wait.:Lin: Matchbox 20. Are they still alive? They could do it as long as they didn't do their songs about mental illness and stuff.

Wow a country artist that can sing thats kinda weird...

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

That's the reason why i can't see it happening. I don't think they are safe bands.

"Danger" left the building a LONG time ago with those two. When I was but a wee teenage nard, Wal Mart would not carry AC/DC.

Wal Mart was their biggest pimp for the new album.

The Peppers are goofy and quasi-trippy in their own special way, but a threat?

No.

[ClevelandBronco]

Todd Rundgren.

I don't watch the Super Bowl halftime, so my vote probably shouldn't count.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]
