Did anyone catch the super bowl halftime show last night?
cause it was awful
|
I did, and I also thought it was terrible, tron ripoff, Daft Punk ripoff, vocals auto-tuned, then again every Super Bowl halftime show of the last 10 years has been awful.
|
i flipped to the channel while it was on. it sounded like the dueling auto tune things. It sounded ridiculous. I watched for a min and it was kinda neat with the lights...you know,shiny things impress me, but I had to change it soon after.
|
my band turned off the volume and played through it... althought I can't say it was much better, we were pretty shmammered at that point lol.
|
Yeah, aren't The Black Eyed Peas a rap group? Cause you really couldn't tell last night.

Luckily I wasn't subjected to their half time "performance" since I didn't watch the Super Bowl. But I've heard much about it. |
The Black Eyed Peas sucked more than they usually do. I came to that conclusion after watching the half-time show for 30 seconds, then I flipped the channel.
EDIT: Thread moved to the Media section. |
I heard the first few lines of Sweet Child of Mine being sung by the plastic chick and I just got up and walked away from the TV. It was sad to watch, almost painful. That was one of my favorite songs as a kid, and it is overplayed and overrated, but it just got destroyed by that performance.
|
I caught it, then threw it back.

I watched it. Eh, nothing great. Cool dancers and all the extra stuff though, it looked cool. I never really have halftime show expectations anymore. I just want it to go quickly so I can get back to watching the game.
|
Fergie freaked me out a bit. I didn't like the performance, and she was way too intense and shouting and such. I was more scared than anything.
|
Here is my review of the whole thing:
a) i'm not sure the black eyed peas actually know how to dance at this point. They sorta stood there and dig a weird combination walk-wiggle-pump your arms thing. Really wasn't sure what was going on there b) SLASH? c) the tech guys for that show deserve the real praise, to pull off those lights and staging so quickly. Damn. d) USHER? e) There new song is terrible f) Their singing volume was off or weird or something g) SLASH???? h) I was half expecting tupac or mj to come down at the end--best comeback ever |
They should get KISS to do it, every year.
|
I don't get why anybody would expect quality from something so inevitably cheesy as a half time show?

I thought the halftime show was the time you are supposed to catch up on the Puppy Bowl, drink, and load a plate with food so you can stay seated for the second half. People watch it?

I just don't know why anyone would put expectations in a cheesy halftime show. Look at the nature of what it is. It's not like you're going to get Jesus rising from the turf, and spewing out his message of world peace, infinitely shinning light on the world. |

I don't think you know what the word performer means. It certainly doesn't mean that they need to dance when they aren't dance or hop around the stage. Sure the lighting guy or w/e tech was awesome but who's idea do you think it was? THEIRS! performers don't have to do more than just sing if they want to. One thing I would have liked them to do, just like their entrance where they came down on those ropes or w/e. I feel like they should have left the same way. It would have been pretty cool. Slash was awesome and I agree that Fergie flubbed up whatever she was attempting to do. Usher was also a highlight of the performance doing a split over will's head. I'm a B.E.P. fan so I enjoyed it but I can see why others didn't. |
At any rate ultimatley its the Super Bowl. Even though the number of viewers are in an elite category. Ultimatley its main purpose is the contest of athletic ability. Despite the continued disappointment of those who are in search of some sort of musicapalooza fantasy. Ive come to expect the halftime show to be crap and turn to a sportsnetwork for the experts to give their halftime anaylization of the first half statistics. Along with what adjustments should be made for either team to have suceess in the second half of play. Might I suggest something other than a football game halftime event. To satisfy your hunger for musical excellence in the future. The idea is with good intention but is consistantly a product of its own enevitable detriment. Its heartbreaking I know, but I wouldnt expect a brief throw and catch game during a recess at a Rolling Stones concert to be able to meet my football expectations either. While its audience doesnt see the concert of a lifetime the point is the game does exceeds the level of play we tune in for. So be patient oh yea of little athletic ability,interest, or knowledge. American Idol should be more to your liking. |
the only thing, besides Slash, that could have made that worthwhile is if Fergie wet herself again. Despite the cheesiness, she did a decent job of singing at some parts because i imagine its hard to hear anything over the crowd. The rest of BEP was painful to watch/hear.

not the least interested to watch it on youtube
should have used Buckethead, not Slash |
isn't Buckethead dead?
|
is he? no idea - haven't read any obit of him lately - the message board I go to regularly posts obits, even some no-namers
