It's just the presumptuousness of the thing. Big venue (Superbowl) and big half-time act (The Stones), who every morning news show this morning said they looked like they could care less about their performance.
I'd much rather see a band who'd be hungry to be there - Radiohead, perhaps, or if you're looking for vintage, The Cure or The Pixies. Pixies live are outstanding.
But all this tired retro crap is what killed Monday Night Football for ABC. You have old ex coaches, for example like John Madden. No one cares what John Madden has to say and Al Michaels adds nothing with his whiny voice. Instead of putting up a new fresh venue, Disney moves MNF to ESPN where it will never be seen by as large a public as on ABC.
I don't know, maybe I'm bummed football season is over. In the end, like Off Ramp says, "who cares..."
