Up here ---> U2



Down here ---> All Others


I'd like if we could find a happy medium for these shows. It's either new pop music or classic rock music. A friend said the other day the perfect band to do a halftime show would be Red Hot Chili Peppers, and after thinking about it I am inclined to agree. I don't love the Chili Peppers, I am not even a big enough fan to download their music. But I've never heard a "hit" song of theirs I didn't enjoy. Their music is varied enough to have a pretty broad appeal. I don't know, I think they'd be good.

They might be pretty good, actually.

Personally, I'd love to see Muse. Or maybe Muse circa 2004-2006. I saw them in 2006 and it was a hell of a show. They know how to do spectacle and I like their music, but they're not quite recognizable here on this side of the pond, unfortunately.

“On a day when they could have had impact players David Terrell or Koren Robinson..they took Georgia defensive tackle Richard Seymour, who had 1 sacks last season in the pass-happy SEC and is too tall to play tackle at 6-6 and too slow to play defensive end. This genius move was followed by trading out of a spot where they could have gotten the last decent receiver in Robert Ferguson and settled for tackle Matt Light, who will not help any time soon.”

Nothing will ever top Prince.

I honestly can't even remember most of the half time performances even though I know i havent missed one in the last 10 years.

But the prince one is burned in my memory. Great performance.

Worst=Madonna. I don't care if she was hurt or not, it was lacking for me.

You dould listen to more music.

At the risk of being redundant.

U2

I haven't watched it in forever. Wow.

I watch it like once a month…love it.

The Where the Streets Have No Name build up off of MLK erects my hair follicles. Very few things do that to me anymore…but this has for the past 11 years and will continue to forever.

Man, I remember that U2 one. My dad (an ex-Marine) and I watched that game together. I was 15 at the time. My dad HATES Bono. Can't stand him. But I remember after watching Bono open his jacket and show the flag with the symbolic towers collapsing in the background, I looked over at my dad and he had tears running down his face. That was the greatest. Nothing will ever top that.

His rendition of Cut Me Some Slack with Grohl, Novoselic & Pat Smear kicks serious ass.

Edit: AC/DC should have played a SB by now. Enough of the Beyonce/Madonna/Fergie garbage.

I'm not even a big fan of U2. I enjoy their hits, but I made the mistake of buying that album "Beautiful Day" was on and thought most of it was crap. But that Super Bowl show, for me and everyone in the sports bar in Omaha that night, was simply amazing.
