Re: Its time for this generation to pick up the slack!

the thing that gets me the most is the Stones are so cliche'

it was like everytime you saw Tony Bennett on TV, he ALWAYS started singing "I left my heart in San Fan Cisco....."

they bleeped words out of Mic's lyrics 3 times in the halftime show - I mean, come on, the guy is 63 years old - Isnt it considered rude to bleep a senior citizen, esp when he has been singing the same song for the last 40+ years?

will the Stones still be doing concerts when they are in wheelchairs? Will 18 year old girls still be waving their hands in the air, thinking "he is so sexy!"

(or was the audience told what to do?)

I think they gave them the LED flashlights and said "Wave these around and scream".

Re: Its time for this generation to pick up the slack!

it's not like we have much of a choice when it comes to such a thing as the half-time show for the super bowl, really. Then again, if we were given a choice about who we would TRULY like to see live at the Half time show, ABC wouldn't approve. So damned if we do, and damned if we don't.
...then again, I'm not much of a football fan, so yeah.... heh

Re: Its time for this generation to pick up the slack!

We do have quite a few good musical performers, my personal being Blue Man Group (musical geniuses). But while not everyone is a Dixie fan certain music does stay with us through the ages, everyone knows who Mozart or Louis Armstrong are. While they don't show up at super bowl you would be hard pressed to not find them in hosts of videos. Rolling stones inspire strong emotion in the public, an easy pick.

Ummm I love his music but he's not famous because of his good looks.
