JetsFanInDenver Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I think the Super Bowl halftime should be 15 minutes full of the only ads. That way the TeeVee people make a lot of moolah and we get to escape the torture of watching these half baked shows. A win win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visajets Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 How about the "Lingerie bowl" during halftime? Is that really acceptable to family viewers? Come on man. Its a half time show meant to please everyone. Who really cares? Its FOOTBALL thats the main course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crusher Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Hip Hop shows in general are awful live. There's only been a few in my life time that I've seen and was impressed. But that wasnt even hip hop and it was quite honestly the worst thing I've ever seen. It was so hard to watch, I wanted to change the channel when they kept going into new songs, but it was like a car wreck, I couldnt look away. I much rather see washed up legends than something like that. Feel bad for their fans. That was almost as embarrassing as that Jessica's Simpson lip sync debacle on SNL. Glad I was forced to watch the Puppy Bowl. SNL debacle was Ashlee Simpson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon63 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Slash needed a paycheck. I wouldn't mind if Muse did a halftime show...NFL usually goes mainstream and they're really good live...the problem is that they're not American enough for America's #1 sports event...f8ck yeah. I like Muse. One of the few new bands I actually like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klecko73isGod Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Man. I thought it was bad but I don't get the violently negative reaction. Our expectations for the halftime show aren't realistically low enough is what it seems to me. I wasn't expecting much going and it exceeded my low expectations. All I think the NFL can honestly hope for is mildly entertaining and inoffensive and to that end, they succeeded. My biggest problem was Fox's terrible sound issues - mikes cutting in and out, Slash's guitar being barely audible. Of course, if you are comparing this the to opening ceremonies of the Bejing Olympics, you're gonna be really let down but I don't think that's a really fair comparison.

Green DNA Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I've actually done well in this category. She beat me to it and let one slip accidentally. Now I'm free to fart in front of her whenever the hell I want because of her moment of shame. As long as she wasn't sitting on your face at the time, that might hang with you for a while.

visajets Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 The Black Eyed Peas underwhelm Super Bowl halftime 11:41 PM, Feb. 6, 2011 | 2Comments TwitterFacebookShare Del.icio.us Digg Reddit Facebook Twitter Newsvine Buzz up!FarkIt EmailPrintAAA Written by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Filed Under Sports Football: NFL On second thought, maybe Usher should have been the headliner for the Super Bowl halftime show. The superstar had only a brief cameo in the showcase, but his tightly choreographed moves and acrobatics marked the brief exhilarating moment of a surprisingly stale medley from the normally frenetic headliners, the Black Eyed Peas. The Super Bowl performance was arguably the biggest stage yet for the quirky quartet, whose fusion of pop, dance and hip-hop have made them global superstars. But in the massive Cowboys Arena, the group appeared to be as stiff as frontman will.i.am's plastic hair hat. It started out with a wow factor: will.i.am, Taboo, Fergie and apl.de.ap descended from atop the stadium, outfits glittering, bedazzled outfits, singing (with the help of auto-tune) the party anthem "I Gotta Feeling" with hundreds of dancers grooving in step on the field. But the Peas didn't match the energy of the song; they seemed tentative, and tense. It didn't help that Fergie's mic didn't kick in until she was midway through her first verse. If the explanation for the Peas' flatness was nerves, those nerves never settled, as they plodded through such songs as "Pump It" and "Boom Boom Pow." Technically, they were fine — Fergie's voice soared, the raps were performed right. They didn't excite. Even former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash seemed bored as he joined Fergie for a short snippet of "Sweet Child O' Mine," an unnecessary cameo that failed to add any sizzle to the set. So it fell to Usher to breathe some life into the halftime show, and he didn't disappoint as he appeared in all white with a flank of dancers. Although Usher seemed to dance more of his No. 1 hit "OMG" with will.i.am than sing it, his syncopated moves and flips provided the energy jolt that the Peas lacked. Even after Usher left, the Peas seemed a little more alive. They went back in their catalog and performed early hit "Where Is The Love," which segued to their latest "The Time (Dirty Bit)," an odd, dance reworking of "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" from the movie "Dirty Dancing." They ended as they began, reprising "I Gotta Feeling." The choice of the Black Eyed Peas was intended to bring some youthful vigor back to the halftime show after the NFL — feeling burned by the infamous "wardrobe malfunction" of Janet Jackson with the aid of Justin Timberlake in 2004 — chose a string of safe, near-geriatric icons for the halftime for the next six years, ending on a low note with a much-maligned concert by The Who last year. The Black Eyed Peas brought the youth, but little else. "I Gotta Feeling" the NFL will be looking to try and find a better balance in time for Indianapolis next year.

greeniemeanie Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Phish FTW. could you imagine Phish with Jay Z doing a cameo in NYC 2014.

JOJOTOWNSELL Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Just bring in the Beasties. GREATEST BAND EVER!!! And they might be releasing a new CD around that time. Ive seen Beasties in concert over 15 times since 1991...am i still your second fave poster or have i moved up a spot?? Side Note, Next year is the 20th anniversary of teh relese of Pearl Jam "TEN"......i couldnt think of a more deserving act to play the bowl in INDY Some other bands i like that have the presence to pull the Super Bowl off REM Radiohead Beasties the police gorillaz Van Halen but the best idea of all is to have a rotating band doing cover songs ALA the rock and roll hall of fame.....think about it Bruce, Bono, Mcartney, Vedder on Vocals Edge and Niel Young on guitar Flea on bass phill collins on drums (lol) have them play a 5 song set of classic rock STAPLES with bands that dont tour or have dead singers...some zepplin, some doors, some nirvana ect....everyones a winner Bruce, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTM Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I always feel like music like that is best when the voices are mixed lower, as they're really kind of irrelevant and just part of the rhythm. This seems to be the case with most professional mixes when you hear the produced stuff. It's all about the energy. In this show, music was way too low and all you heard with them yelling into the mic. Well, you heard them when the mics weren't cutting out. i owe you two reps now.. but i haz none Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
