tom petty for half time , wtf ?

[xXsilviaXx]

ok for one i cant believe they had him do the halftime show , but secondly does he not sound complety differerent then he used to . i know he has aged and all but damn .

[BKgen®]

i think he actually sounded just as good as he used to... especially in free fallin

[xXsilviaXx]

download stand my ground from limewire or w/e program you use , listen to it , then go to this link , and listen http://youtube.com/watch?v=6bHy67jMyBc.

maybe its just me but i think its a big difference.

[Magnus213]

I thought he did a really good job.

[xXsilviaXx]

oh btw gktib , you see that new hyundai coming out . 4.6 v8 375 hp and 330 tq. thats some sick numbers for a family car .

[xXsilviaXx]

I thought he did a really good job.

im not saying he didnt do a good job . just why him for a MAJOR event ?
if they wanted to go old school they should have gotten pantera or somethin .

[JITB]

tom petty is a well known and respected artist... why not? and i think he sounded fine..

pantera? really?

That's always the situation with Super Bowls, they're trying to appeal to a huge range of ages and backgrounds. They usually end up picking someone that's pretty acceptable to all parties... I think Tom Petty pretty much nailed the job description. Well-known, songs are upbeat but not too crazy while not too boring.

x2 on both

[Andyc3020]

i thought it was great. way better than last year's prince. and even better than the rollin stones. even though i like the stones better, tom petty actually sounded like tom petty.

[jaystar]

I thought it was the most boring half time show ever better then price or the stones yeaa sure

[BKgen®]

I think they should get Rush to play the Super Bowl. That would be beyond fawking awesome.


ps- yes xXsilviaXx, the Genesis looks effin' badass :yes:

yeah i didnt really think about that but i guess im just not to big of a tom petty fan . so for someone who would fit that description that i think would have been better would be , well hell now that i though about it i cant reall think of anyone in the old school rock category but i would have minded seeing kenny chesney up there .

[JITB]

prince had the best halftime show...!

[Hulud]

pantera for halftime?

:lmao:

are you f*ckin serious?

[81911SC]

The TS is obviously a fuccking idiot. Pantera?
I'm not even a big fan of his but it's not suprising they picked him.
Not tooooo bad either.
Pantera, I can't get over that suggestion.
Maybe it's because you're a 08?

Rush would be good, but i dont think most people would agree.

I'm thinkin of led zeppelin, but their stubborn asses would never play for halftime.

[MidLifeCrisis]

dude if rush played the halftime show id actually watch the super bowl.

Agreed.... most people these days who watch the super bowl:

A.) Don't watch it for the football.

B.) Think "souljer boy"(or whatever the f*ck it's called) is good music.

[BKgen®]

p.s.- Rush would never do it anyway. They're not "that" kind of band.

Why Pantera? Why not a band like Nirvana? Or maybe Elvis? Or Frank Sinatra?

/sarcasm

That was stupid as hail. Later, QD.

[nightracer]

I ****ing hated that ****. They could have had a real artist. It was the most annoying half time show I have ever whitnessed.````````

so how do you "whit"ness something?


Tell me, honestly... what's your idea of a "REAL" artist? 50 cent? :lmfao:

[JackMaster]

shiiiit, last yeasrs Prince Half Time show blew Tom Petty away. The Tom Petty show wasn't bad, but wasn't great either, but Prince... He's that dude..... C'mon now, Purple Rain.... performed while it was raining, you couldnt have scripted that any better!

[Kelly]

It was terrible :no:

Best half time show ever was Aerosmith, N'sync & Britney... hands down

[quickdodge®]

That's quite a biases opinion to consider the part in bold. Later, QD.

[Dirty Octopus™]

He was Tom Petty.

but it didnt drive me enough for a half time "show"

i would have needed to see someone younger with a bit more pep. it made the game seem to drag out :dunno:

[JITB]

prince summoned the rain for his performance..

[Infamous_1]

free fallin was jammin!!

[quickdodge®]

Some people just don't know good music when they hear it. Just like YellowTibby said, the main people that don't like this think Soulja Boi is the best. Later, QD.

[Quattro Kid]

dude stfu Tom Petty > all other artists look at all the hits he has. He is THE MAN

[On_Her_Face]

holy shit quattro kid posted?

[PureCocaine]

I think that Tom Petty did a great job at the superbowl, just wish he would of sang "Last Dance for Mary Jane".
