Townsend DID have a "Wardrobe Malfunction"
His Jacket getting in the way of his guitar and eventually un-buttoning his shirt to see his gut ... I laughed.

As mentioned still a lot of Oldies that would be a better match .. AC DC would be great




I guess I am old ... and was excited to see the WHO .. Disappointed to say the least. ..Very forgettable .

every song i hit on was like pulling teeth waiting for it to go somewhere.

Those people that you mentioned, beyonce for instance. there's no 'grab' to the music geez it would only work if you put a couch out there and let here roll around on it half undressed. other than that it doesn't work.

A show like this has to grab you and make you clap and sing along.

No grab? She has more awards and platinum albums than most artists dream of!

I really like her and Destiny's child.

But then, i am diversified! :D

What kind of music do you like? I have everything from Elvis to Beethoven to Britney Spears to Drowning Pool to System of a Down to the Rolling Stones to Rage Against the Machine to Johnny Cash in my playlist.

There is very little current music that I will listen to in 20 years. I only keep up with the current rap/pop because I like to know the songs that get played when I am out at the bar. They might be fun for awhile, but they have almost zero staying power. I probably have every single top 10 hit of every month from the past few years on my iPod, but they almost never get listened to. In contrast, every single time I drive back home from school, I will likely spend at least an hour of the drive listening to the Stones, Hendrix, Zeppelin, AC/DC, The Who and so on. That stuff is just so much better.

The only new music that has any staying power with me is O.A.R. and Dave Matthews Band, and even a lot of those two bands' songs that are my favorites are over 10 years old.

You're a kid still. Wait until you've heard all those classic rock songs 1000000000x like us old timers have.

Now when AC/DC, Led Zep, The Who, etc, etc comes on the radio i turn it off.

Immediately.

I love 80s music though- all kinds of 80s music, and i still listen to a lot of it.

I have no idea what a Destiny's child would sound like. I don't watch but a minimal amount of network TV. The only radio station I even know the station numbers of is classic rock only. Your playlist sucks in my opinion, but that is just my opinion. That is what is great about this country, you can listen to bad music and I don't care an iota.

My playlist is diversified. If i don't have at least 20 songs on it you like, i'd be shocked. I have almost every popular genre of the last 40 years represented except for rap.

Here is some Destiny's child, they were huuuuuge before Beyonce went solo:

BTW: You are hardly an average music listener, by your own admission. So IMO the NFL should be paying you no mind at all when selecting entertainment acts.

I have the Immigrant song playing right now. Zeppelin rules. Your opinion is only an opinion.

Alright, Bad Motor Scooter by Montrose just started. I love my Pandora! No commercials and only good music.

I will click that link right after you move to California.

I feel the same way about Carrie Underwood, Garth Brooks, Reba McIntyre, Brooks & Dunn or Toby Keith and they are Oklahoma products.

Immigrant song.

Well, i've only heard that song 357,000 times. Led Zep was my favorite band growing up.

It's a very rare classic rock song that i am not totally sick of hearing.

There, fixed that little mistake for you.

Dude, I have shoes in my closet that pre-date you...

JR

LOL, you have shoes from 1969??? Do you wear them? :D

My favorite 'current' band is System of a Down. I don't see them being on any NFL half time shows any time soon though. LOL

Now that i would watch!

No short songs though, gotta play 'em all the way through.

You know, my youngest kid listened to those guys, like 10 years ago. Now, he thinks they are too lame to listen to...

Just puttin' that out there...

JR

bah, i've been enjoying System for some time now. don't listen to it every day but haven't found its lost any appeal yet either.

don't really think anyone has followed them that can keep up. i'd be curious who your kid feels has replaced these guys. honestly can't think of anyone right now with the same intensity.

Yeah, i know. To a kid they're yesterday's news. That's why i said that they're my favorite "current" band.

They actually already broke up. But oh my did they kick muchimus assimus for a few years.

Beat's me. It's nobody I have ever heard of. I'll tell you this - when he decides to work out a little on the drums, playing along to them, I head for the other end of the house. His sticks, skins and cymbals don't last long...

JR

I thought the show was ok and entertaining.......

But really who are we kidding here, watching a 15 minute ensemble on tv is never going to be good. Has there ever been a good half time show that has sounded great on tv?

Only way a live concert or performance is going to sound good, is to be there at the concert, or a distant second would be a good recording, but on tv never.

There have been some DAMN good national anthem performances, not sure off hand about half time shows. Didn't U2 do it the one year?

U2 was there in 2002.

JR

tom petty superbowl 42.

You know the funny thing about this is that more often than not, the National Anthem sounds better on tv! Nearly every time I've heard the anthem at a live event, I've heard it through 2 or 3 speakers with an echo or delay.

But live rock has to been seen live, if only to soak up the atmosphere of the performance, it just isn't normally going to happen on tv.

Perhaps if I had seen The Who play live before this show I would have a different reaction.

I thought they were, and i do recall it being pretty good.

Aerosmith in their prime did it once too, and IIRC was also very good.

I don't like live shows because i don't like crowds. I'll tolerate a crowd to see someone i REAAAAALLY want to see, but that's a rare occurrence.

Nickelback? Justin timberlake? Have you been huffing the nitrous Moses?

Bring back the Stones every year.

The Stones are old and boring and Played ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut.

I'd rather eat broken glass than see a stones performance.

Too bad the dude from Alice in Chains O.D'd. I love their stuff.

saw the Who july 1971, I was 13, friends dad dropped 4 of us off at the Dallas Reunion Arena, 3rd concert ( 1)Grand funk railroad (2) Led Zeppelin (3) The Who..... that was quite a month! The SB concert is only a fragment of their former selves, this is what it was like YouTube - The Who - Baba O'riley (live Keith Moon)

Nope. I don't care for ****ty young person music.

Destiny's child is not exactly "young peoples music" it's been around a long time, and you cannot go into any club without hearing their stuff.

It's hard to even watch TV for a couple hours and not see Beyonce' on some station or commercial or whatever.
Which works for me. She's smoking freaking hot.

http://images.fanpop.com/images/imag...9_1024_768.jpg

hot, hot, hot!!!

Anyone who allows themself to depart this earth without first watching Beyonce' shake her ass to some of her music is an idiot. :)

That is doubly true for Shakira.

You guys should all watch the Destiny's child videos i posted just to watch three extremely healthy black chicks shaking dey moneymakers like there's no tomorrow.

Those chicks can REALLY dance!

I think you're making this up snipe. I'm 24 and I have absolutely no idea who this person is, other than the fact that she looks like she'd make **** music.

Speaking of which, Shakira would be a GREAT half time performer.

Droooool.

Langers you must live in a cave. Seriously.

She just won 6 grammys.

Again.

she studies belly dancing obviously YouTube - Hips Don't Lie (featuring Wyclef Jean)

Shakira? Yes she does. :D

Shakira is really really hot.

And then you find out that she's Five Foot One.

And then it gets sooooo much hotter.

yes but I absolutely hate it when they turn the NA into some kind of gospel song.

Haha, i'm with you Gogar! Petite women are soooooo hot!

Flatbutt, agreed. The best ever was the Whitney Houston performance in 1991 when our troops were overseas for Desert Storm. She also threw them a welcome home concert too.

I trust you cretins have all heard of Whitney Houston?

Performance starts at 1:17 (this clip is from the show "TV's greatest moments")

I've never once watched the Grammy's, couldn't tell you who won one for what ever. And I've gigged professionally for years and am a music hardcore fan. Grammy's make an artist good like Oscar's make a movie good. They have nothing to do with each other and everything to do with industry insiders.
