I think they thought they were being clever: The CSI theme... In Miami.... Clever clever clever -- nm - Facto Feb 8, 06:51 2
- To be fair any time they play one of their songs they've got about a 1/4 shot of playing a CSI theme song. -- nm - Ender Feb 8, 06:58 1
  - Yeah, but there are only 3 CSI HQ locations, aren't there? ;) Las Vegas, New York and Miami.. For an NYC sb they could play just about anything. Las - Facto Feb 8, 07:26
I doubt it. -- nm - znufrii Feb 8, 06:46
I quite enjoyed The Who. Funniest part was my stepdad whining about all these "stupid newfangled rock bands" at the Super Bowl... - TFox Feb 8, 06:43 11
- I enjoyed it quite a bit, but I've always dug The Who. -- nm - Jim Feb 8, 06:56
- I like the set. What were those? LED pipe lights or something? -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 8, 06:46 1
  - don't know, but the set was far more interesting to watch than the band... -- nm - znufrii Feb 8, 06:48
- jeebus, that's priceless. -- nm - Reagen Feb 8, 06:45 7
  - it's an annual tradition with him. bitch about R&B singers trilling too much during the national anthem... - TFox Feb 8, 06:59 6
    - frankly, that annoys me too. - znufrii Feb 8, 07:05 2
      - technically, eat my grundle. -- nm - TFox Feb 8, 07:06 1
        
        yummy! There's nothing better than some nice fresh grundle for breakfast... -- nm - znufrii Feb 8, 07:08
    - Well, the R&B thing is legit! As soon as Queen L started in I was like "See you in 7 minutes." - HdnAgnda Feb 8, 07:04
    - Did he actually use the word "new fangled"? I, for one, would not let him forget about that - Reagen Feb 8, 07:01 1
      - i believe he did, though he'd deny it. he's friggin weird./ -- nm - TFox Feb 8, 07:03

- no even Tina Turner would have been significantly better -- nm - Danedukenuuk Feb 8, 06:41
- We've already booked Wayne Newton. -- nm - Super Bowl Producers Feb 8, 06:38
- There are, but most of them have already played the Super Bowl halftime show -- nm - Roger More Feb 8, 06:37 9
  - Yup, they've run the gamut. McCartney, TP & the Hipbreakers, The Boss, The Who, The Stones. Most recent modernish act was Prince, right? I suppose - HdnAgnda Feb 8, 06:45 8
    - Prince was modernish? He's been around just as long as Tom Petty. -- nm - Ender Feb 8, 07:00 2
      - I would argue that Prince's 80's-90's stuff comes across as more youthful then Tom Petty given - HdnAgnda Feb 8, 07:08 1
        
        Really? Prince's genre of music hasn't even existed in 20 years. -- nm - Ender Feb 8, 07:10
    - Here's a list. Looks like 2001-2004 was the peak for modernish artists, excepting Jacko in 93. -- (link) - TFox Feb 8, 06:54 2
      - Like I said last night...they haven't had anyone under 50 since Janet showed her boobie. -- nm - Jim Feb 8, 06:58
      - The big surprise (for me) from that list is how they only started booking big names in the 1990s - Roger More Feb 8, 06:57
    - Prince had been around 20 years before his SB appearance, so that's stretching modernish :) I'd go with Jackson/Timberlake as most recent modernish -- nm - Roger More Feb 8, 06:50 1
      - And we all know how that turned out... -- nm - znufrii Feb 8, 06:51
