Subject: Superbowl

Written By: K1chyd on 01/29/05 at 9:20 am

I´m curious, and maybe one of you Americans can answer this, about who will be playing the Superbowl half time show this year? Have they found someone "reliable" and "family safe"?

And for those who have no idea why I´m asking (that can´t be too many), here´s a reminder:

Yep. Paul McCartney. Personally, I hope he decides to moon the crowd (and the FCC while he's at it), but I'm not holding my breath.

it's Paul McCartney... he'd still manage to make it boring and sappy.

Here's to hoping he plays "Spies Like Us".  A number one hit he seems to always neglect placing on his greatest hits collections.

I keep hoping he'll surprise us at one of these events and bust out "Big Boys Bickering":

Just remembered this quote from my handy-to-have archive:

Good riddance to MTV halftime.  And Michael Powell.

is anyone doing "alternate" half-time shows?  I know several years ago there were alternate half-times on some channels, but I guess it wasn't a worthwhile stunt since I've seen no mention of anyone doing it this year.  Too bad.

Bah, football isn't violent.  It's intensely, physically confrontational.  Big difference.
