I thought the Black Eyed Pees halftime show would never be exceeded for the worst halftime show ever. I was wrong.

Someone should have called an audible and put Alicia Keyes in.

Didn't she muck up the national anthem. Thought that was who they said it was. Don't know many of these new pop acts.

Agreed. The frackin worse thing in the world is reading a bunch of 30, 40, 50 somethings telling the world what is or is not music, a good performance, talent, etc. They are, as were my parents back then, FoS.
IMO

How does stating an opinion make one Fos?
I could see that were any of us saying don't listen to it.
I'm simply stating , "I don't care for it".
 
I want to see a group like Rush or ZZ Top do a half time show.
 
I thought she rocked it! Far better the many of the more recent halftime performances. The point is entertainment, and she entertained. Sounds like most of you watched her and did not turn the channel! She would not have been my first choice, but at least she sang it. And none of you you know how much she was auto-tunned. The set was pretty cool as well. She can sing, there is no question about that.
 
It doesn't matter what anybody thinks of Alicia Keyes National Anthem or Beyonce's half time show, they will be laughing all the way to the bank regardless!!

I would prefer a marching band (much better yet, a Drum and Bugle Corp) but that's what I grew up with.
A bad marching band always let us know it was time to go to the snack bar.
You can't effectively mix a marching band. They always sound horrible over home speakers.

Beyonce is an great singer and a beautiful girl.
But, I'm not impressed anymore by 100 people on stage dressed in black dancing in unison.
I'm not moved by the dancing, but I wish I could move like that.
Wow - I'm starting to sound like my grandfather.
But seriously - It's not a real show until you add a banjo.
 
Honestly, while it's not my chosen style of music, I didn't think it was that bad. She certainly did a heck of a lot better than the Black Eyed Peas, or even The Who.
 
Heheh, the Go-Daddy commercial was hands down the worse part of the Super Bowl. :bang: :jaw: :puke: I heard CBS rejected their first "attempt".

Exactly... FoS INCLUDES disagreeing...

But that's not allowed anymore...

My boys and I were watching at the church where they attend youth group. The game was projected on a screen that took up most of a wall 20 ft. tall. I thought that a bunch of women dancing in their underwear on the wall of a church was a little awkward but musically I withhold judgement because I can no longer hear music (too many frequencies lost to reasons the specialists cannot understand or explain). The adults in the room took the time to refill their plates and socialize. I thought the harshest condemnation of the halftime show was when the entire youth group, including about 50% teenage boys, decided that going outside in the cold, dark, and snow to play dodge-ball in the parking lot was a better idea than watching Beyonce.
 
Gentlemen I can say I've only read one reply I disagree with. Now I didn't watch but I've heard enough about the show they were going to do. I have see one she did for a music video on the net, if it was the same one there's some thing we all need to understand. The whole thing is based on the occult, it's a reenactment of an occult ritual sacrifice, a blood sacrifice of a virgin to the devil, it's wholly and solely based in the occult. Both beyonce and here hubby are big into the occult and are both Illuminati.

I know..I know.."here we go again, another conspiracy nut"..call it what you will but the information is out there, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to find it. Just in case one misses my signature:

Take the red pill and see how deep the Rabbit hole goes.
 
I say we Just launch off the biggest rocket possible with the biggest motor possible! How's that for a half-time show!

I actually wonder what the NAR has to say about launching a rocket in the middle of a football stadium... Although This assumes the stadium has an open top.

Some time in the early 70's, back when Dane Boles was with Estes, we did a demo launch during halftime at a Falcons game. The finale of the demo was launching Saturn Vs from each end zone. The spectators LOVED it!
 
I got up and did the dishes during the halftime show but I could still hear it. Musically it was horrible, I can't speak to the visuals.

When the first domed stadium in the world, the Houston Astrodome, was first opened, there was an Estes Saturn V launched from the midfield during the halftime show... it was carefully calculated NOT to hit the roof... and didn't...

Course, that was the 60's... :)

I was saying something similar to one of the guys I was watching with. I would be happy if they just invited a State University (doesn't matter, Ohio State, Nebraska, Illinois, whoever) marching band (or two) and let them do their half-time show(s). It would have to be better than this...

I think someone likes the Big Ten! You left out Purdue, Boiler Up!

As a Purdue Marching Band alum, and performing at every Purdue home football game between 2008 and 2011, I would love to see a college marching band do a halftime show in the superbowl! People don't realize how much work and effort it takes to put together a marching band performance and execute it flawlessly.

I do, since my ex girlfriend dragged me to one. Her band performed on ice, so I heard all about it for weeks...
