Have any of you bros seen them?
This is weird. I was just thinking about them being the next SB act
yesterday! It'll be interesting, but I hate the medley crap.
Watching 65-year old Daltrey (in his toupee) and Townsend do "Teenage
Wasteland" at the Super Bowl made me think of bringing back the Soviet
Red Army Chorus Alumni to perform "The Internationale" at a Goldman
Sachs Christmas party.
Yes, they suck but The Who sucked more.
bring back janet jackson and this time strip her down all the way
I say let Beyonce perform her music then let her strip all the way :)
Careful Steve... some of the oldtimers arouond here will think you
are talking about a bunch of musicians with Pearl Bailey.
When you think about it, isn't the SB enough hype? Who gets the glory,
the SB or the act? Does it pump up the ratings? Does a 15 minute medley
really make any difference to anyone, even big fans?
I vote for an oldies medley. 4 Seasons, 5 Satins, Little Anthony, Jay &
The Americans, all get wheeled out and do 1 shortened tune.

The more I think about it, the more the Pearl Jam thing doesn't make
sense to me. Eddie Vedder, the consummate anti-corporate voice,
agreeing to perform in the Super Bowl? On the brink of a lockout, no less?
And, BTW, your list of oldies stars ain't so old. ;)
speaking of oldies...
i remember jet games from the days at shea stadium... they had a band
shell there with a full orchestra... that was awesome... swing, hot
jazz and so on... much MUCH better than hearing "hells bells" or
"welcome to the jungle" or some other over played glorification of
violence rock song ad neuseum every fukin week. dont the idiots that
in charge of in-game entertainment know that people are sick of
hearing the same stupid ass stuff over and over ???
forgot to add... i think they suck... i'd rather have a turpentine
enema then be forced to listen to that crap... that whole genre of
music is repulsive. the tv would go off for that half time show...
opinion of course...
along with being a sub third rate musical talent, vedder is simpleton
and an buffoon masquerading himself as an anti-corporatist. in that
respect, he'd be a perfect fit for the superbowl media bonanza. he's
got an image that the heavies love to sell and he $hares their motive
with great enthusiasm. that shit stain isnt anti anything other than
anti find some real work.
Tell us how you really feel
ok...
the only thing that was worse musically speaking than the shit that
sprang up out of seattle was the bigger heap of shit that first sprang
up out of the minneapolis - st paul scene in the 80's. total
excrement in every respect. musically, socially...
We used to mock that band all the time. "fallin in love with love with
live everlasting.... that's love".

I was trying to reach a bigger audience than if I was talking about The
Ink Spots, Bill Haley, The Cadillacs, and other assorted dead guys.
