Who SHOULD Play The Super Bowl Halftime?

[pbmax]

I think this year there is only one choice:

Average White Band - Jordy Nelson Tribute


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFzNXUUSFF0

[pbmax]

Was Average White Band everyone's favorite and first choice? I almost can't believe no one has more suggestions. Not even Bretsky or Ziggy with a wardrobe malfunction request.

[Oscar]

I'd like to see the Foo Fighters. I think they would put on a good show.

[Freak Out]

ICP.

[hoosier]

Rolling Stones with Hells Angels as stage guards.

[The Shadow]

As long as it isn't Prince (who made me long for Up With People) - and perhaps the Black-Eyed Peas, I think I could make it thru just about anyone.

[Freak Out]

Iron Maiden.

[Freak Out]

NY Philharmonic playing Mussorgsky's "Night on Bald Mountain".

[Freak Out]

Paolo Conte.

[Freak Out]

You know....."like a Prayer" is pretty dance-able.

[mraynrand]

I think it's time for the whole world to experience the mellifluous melodies of Geddy Lee and RUSH as they sing 2112 in it's entirety.

"We have assumed control...We HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL!!!"

Sam Spence.

[Freak Out]

I am 100 percent behind the RUSH bid.

[denverYooper]

Sepultura

[denverYooper]

Mr Bungle

[Joemailman]

[pbmax]

ICP.

As funny as that would be, I think its a safe bet it will never happen. There was a news item not too long ago that certain members of their fans were being listed as a gang by law enforcement. Sensible or not, the NFL would prefer another show of skin.

[pbmax]

I'd like to see the Foo Fighters. I think they would put on a good show.

I can see that. But they would get a double bill as I am not sure they cross enough demographics. Something dumb like Aerosmith, Justin Timberlake and Britney.

Nickelback, Kid Rock, Rascall Flats, or Metallica.

If nothing else comes up, I suggest some German speed/death metal. Like Warrant or:

Oh, I got it. Slam dunk.

[pbmax]

Journey.

With or without Steve Perry?

[Upnorth]

Johnny Cash?
Or how about a 2011 redub of Up with people?
Also how about keeping it 15 minutes like at a real football game.

[Pugger]

UW marching band.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Beastie Boys

[pbmax]

Beastie Boys

I could see that, but like Foo Fighters, they will need a hook for demographics outside their base of fans.

[wootah]

I'm gonna have to go with Nickelback on this, fellas.

[Deputy Nutz]

Nickleback preformed at the thanksgiving game in Detroit and they were terrible.

AC/DC but they don't do that sort of thing.

Everyone else is either old, or their music sucks. AC/DC is also old but they kick ass.

ABBA?

Crosby Stills and Nash

Stevie Nix?

Journey, because I wanna see that Philipino kick some ass.

[mraynrand]

Harlan wants Liza Minnelli, Barbara, or Nancy Sinatra.

[Upnorth]

How about Elton John and generic street thug rapper? That woudl be hilarious to see, and if you want entertainment its good to laugh.

[Oscar]

I originally thought the Foo Fighters would be good but PB has a good point. Maybe give Jon Bon Jovi a call. Or, Van Halen and have Diamond Dave and Sammy split a set. OK, maybe Dave and Sammy would be too much..LOL

[Upnorth]

now that would be awesome, they could blend Jump into Just a Gigalo and then Dave and Sammy could get in a slap fight.

[jdrats]

Janet Jackson.

So all pre-game conversation will center around whether or not we will see another wardrobe malfunction. The game itself will be forgotten and The Packers can continue to fly under the radar the way they did early this season when all the talk centered around "The Dream Team" and the fast starts by Bills, Redskins and Lions!

[Harlan Huckleby]

Harlan wants Liza Minnelli, Barbara, or Nancy Sinatra.

that's Barbra

That's it!!!! The Wilbury's. Wait....Harrison is dead. So is Roy. Never mind.

Your joking, right? They suck. Even the fans in Detroit didn't want them.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Rumor was that Nickelback's performance was so bad it made Suh stomping mad.

Unfamiliar, except that I have possibly heard them on the radio and then only will find out who they were much, much later. Has happened with Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Mumford and Sons, Coldplay, Blind Melon and The Presidents of the United States of America. Some of these revelations were more welcome than others.

And actually every country artist I know was discovered by me after the fact.

I was in the same boat... heard a lot of their songs but had no idea who they were or even that the songs were all from that one band. Last year my wife wanted "MUSE" tickets for her birthday so we went and I had a blast. Now they're on my radar. :)

Halftime shows are for chix who don't dig fb to watch and guys to reload on the booze and go to the bathroom a couple times during the extended wasteful break from football

Halftime is approx 25 minutes long now. At some point, willing or not, you are going to catch the halftime act. :)

Pregame though? I am with gary. Avoid like plague.

Coldplay is fine with me. So is James Blunt, Daniel Powter or Snow Patrol. Just so long as they distribute revolvers so I can blow the top of my head off and end the pain.

The best option for the Superbowl is to put Amy Winehouse out there.

[RashanGary]

Jim Rome summed it up about as well as you could. It has to be an international name, a group people in Europe, Asia and Africa have heard. This isn't for just you. This is a big, international audience.

I would vote for either Eric Clapton or Henson Cargill - but that's just me.

[pbmax]

Despite the vote on Top Gear (British car show on BBCA) the best driving song of all time is Run To The Hills. By the time that song is done, its a miracle if I am not doing 90. :lol:

How about Arcade Fire? Would that cheer you up enough after Snow Patrol?

Is Amy Winehouse as good a singer as her You Tube stuff seems to suggest? I never knew her work, only the controversy, but when she passed I played a couple of her videos and was pleasantly surprised.

I would be OK with Clapton. I saw him in concert with Stevie Ray Vaughn and SRV blew him away in a large venue. Unfortunately, as with Winehouse, its going to be tough to book.

[Cheesehead Craig]

A Weekend at Winehouse's theme for the halftime show.

It's got the retro nod to the 80's movies
It's got the zombie nod to the current trend
It's got the sounds that the older folks can relate to

There may be something to that...

[Harlan Huckleby]

Cold Play is huge internationally. But they have wrong act for arena.

Beck would be good, but too artsy fartsy for event.

Just give Kid Rock the whole show and be done with it

[mraynrand]

You know, those shows are really stupid and pointless, but here's another take: Throughout my entire youth, the Packers were really quite awful, and, with the exception of actually winning a playoff game in '82 and despite putting up a fight in the Divisional loss at Dallas, I knew the team never had a chance to make to the NFCC game, let alone a Superbowl. So the whole concept of the Superbowl was otherworldly. That was something the Raiders, Redskins, Steelers, Cowboys, and Niners played in and won and the Vikings and Bills lost.

So in 1996 when the Packers were in the Superbowl and all the pregame shows had pointlessly stupid pregame interviews with players, their wives, their dogs, and their tattoo artists, I was stunned with a overwhelming sensation of the surreal - this can't be the Packers getting this attention, can it? This is not for us, etc. etc. So I don't watch the pregame programs or the halftime show (we play snow football at halftime), but I have them on and love the idea that these programs are geared at least 1/2 towards the Packers and it signifies that, impossibly, the Packers are in the Superbowl itself.

In 1996, I felt much the same way. Same as when the Browns would get a coveted game writeup in SI, or a single-game of coverage on Divisional Weekend by Zimmerman. But with the TV stuff, after watching, it was like popcorn or cotton candy. You had been eating forever but were still not full.

Slowly, but surely I abandoned these programs because it wasn't worth the time. I do miss some interesting stuff (like the piece on Jones' early life on Thanksgiving) but have many more important things to attend to. And contrary to game announcing and halftime shows, which obviously need to be directed at non-football fans, I cannot fathom a casual fan sitting through any significant part of a four hour pregame.

This is pretty obvious, isn't it? Game is in Indiana, so who else but Indiana's favorite son, John Cougar Mellencamp. He fits the usual protocol of having a long career and being past his prime, but he actually had a pretty good album in 2010 that no one heard, so he still has chops and can put on an energetic show. Mellencamp can also pair pretty well with a female singer with younger appeal -- for me, that would be Missy Elliot, but I could see Adele or someone like that.

Cripes, this is easy, why aren't I running the League?

Thanks KY, though I bow to Iron Mike on all things football.

As to the White Stripes, poor Meg White has some serious anxiety issues, so I wouldn't bank on her being able to do a Super Bowl gig.

Sure, Clapton is superb, but for the Super Bowl, that quintessential American event, you need an American band to headline (unless you agree, a la U2, to have your frontman wear the Stars and Stripes in the liner of his/her jacket). This is our chance to showcase Us. And if you're in Indi-friggin-ana, there's really only one act worthy of consideration.

So I'm sticking with Johnny Cougar. Well, ain't that America?

Clapton only should get the gig if brings Buddy Guy out to play with him. Slowhand needs a good kick in the ass to really play and Buddy can still do it.

Oh yeah. Eric would definitely have Buddy in Indy. Just a quick run down 65, baby. hell, Eric would probably bring Hubert Sumlin down there & give him a payday, too. EC takes care of all the Chi blues guys.
