Was that REALLY on the Superbowl? That was one long commercial...it was more like a SNL skit! But funny!!

Although I'm really not a fan of the Who or Daltry, I have to say he is holding up to old age rather well. I like him more now that he's older...when he was younger he used to remind me of the swingin dick twenty-something guy that would hang out at the high school after school, trying to score on the jailbait. Like Wooderson from Dazed and Confused. Now he's more like trying to score at the golf course...

I was wondering if anyone would catch that. I realized it after I wrote it that I munged the two together, but I decided to leave it to see if anyone else would notice.

I have no problem with Clapton, I really enjoy almost all of his work. My point was that the organizers of the halftime show are following a trend of selecting older, 'safer', bands from the 60s and 70s, and Clapton would seem to be a logical choice.

I for one would like to see someone like the Foo Fighters, or at least someone more contemporary. No disrespect to the older bands, but at the Super Bowl, I'd prefer more current stuff.

Next year we could have Taylor Swift do an encore performance of her Grammies rendition of Fleetwood Mac's Rhiannon. Fast forward to the 1:28 mark of the video or the song.

WARNING: If you like the song and do not want to be permanently scarred from ever hearing it again, do not watch this clip. I still haven't recovered from the horror.

Honest to God...I love Taylor Swift to pieces. But she really needs to never, ever sing live. I like her because she writes mostly all her own songs and is a real musician amongst the other teeny boppers, but she canNOT sing. Play guitar, sure, write songs...if you're into the folksy things, she's great. Never, EVER sing live again, Taylor. She's the only girl that can make Stevie sound good!!

And for those who like Taylor Swift, I recommend muting the volume and playing the video.

DAYUM.

I didn't watch most of them, but I did catch the Tim Tebow one and was absolutely mystified as to the controversy about it. All I could think was, "That was it?" I don't know what people were expecting, but geeeez what a waste of energy to get up in arms and all pissy about something that subtle. There are much, much more overt things in support of both positions all over the place on TV and in the culture at large.

Aaaanyway. Yeah. Just came in here to say I really don't get the outrage over... that.

We truly are not worthy of Miller!

U2's performance in 2002 was the last good halftime show that I can recall. That was excellent.

I mean, there have been good performances since then, but they seem so random that I can't see them that way.
