prince
those are my $.02, sorry prince fans.
Espcially when he started to sing purple rain, and it was raining on him, then the sheet came down! That was the best part!
Also, I thought he did a pretty good job of the Foo Fighters song.
but thats just my $.02.
The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
those are my $.02, sorry prince fans.
yea i agree with that...i'm gonna get crap for this but i hate seeing rolling stones or any member of the beatles that is still trying to hold on....sure they were some of the 'greatest' all time and sure they were ground breaking but times have changed....
im sure they are catering to their target market/demographics with their music selection....im in my mid 20's and don't care for the older stuff....im sure 20 years from now kids will be saying the same thing about music that I like so to each his/her own.....

It was a good show, you can hate on the person but not their talent.
Faking the guitar solo? Orly?
And FWIW, halftime blew goats. What I dont understand is how can someone like Prince agree to sing some one else's song? Its not like this guy has a limited amount of albums out, its ******* Prince.
Did anyone notice a bit of "All Along the Watchtower" before he started singing "Best of You?" Ill be Jimi was rolling over in his grave.

As for Jimi rolling over in his grave.. I doubt it ,.. musicians of that quality know talent when they hear it .. no way it "bothered" Jimi..
Like previously stated .. if you don't care for the show .. fine .. but Prince has more musical talent than about 98% of the people recording today..
the reason people like that play the half time show is $$$$ Take a look at the top 10 grossing tours of the last few years .. the one thing they ALL have in common is they relased albums in the '70's..
us old geezer's have most of the $$$

Im not doubting the mans talent, I actually enjoy some of his older music. I just find it hard to believe that he sang someone elses songs (All along the Watchtower: written by Bob Dylan, but you "geezer's" should know that... so maybe he should have cringed, not Jimi... and Best of You was written by the Foo Fighters) with so much to his credit.
Regardless of his talent, the show sucked.
And 98% of the musicians today.... suck. Thats why the top grossing tours all had albums in the 70's... when talent mattered, not filters and synthesizers.
Oh, and what the **** was with the pre-game Cirque de Solei bullshit, dogshit show? I mean, those jets that flew over should have executed an airstrike on that stupid-*** ****.

Look in between the 1:20 and 2:00 mark on this video,
