DEAD! Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 .... ok let's party like it's 1999.... coincidentally that was the last time "South Florida" hosted the Super Bowl.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I have alwals been a Prince apologists, but I think it a couple years too late. "Musicology" was a much better album than "2131". That said, we will hear more of the 1980's stuff. Seeing the pre-game show in HD might be worth that investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 For the longest time, I thought the NFL's halftime entertainment shows were lacking in sexual ambiguity.Now, my worries are over.Damn fine guitar player, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floydnimrod Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I hope he plays "Fury"That song is sweetAnd 1999, or Let's Go Crazy would work too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentomushi5150 Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Is it me or is the NFL watching "I love the 80's" and hiring talent for the halftime show? I hear next year Hall and Oates will be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Prince is a lot like Miles Davis or U2 -- he'll always be current. I can't see him playing a 1999 dog and pony show; he seems to be doing fresh things all of the time. I think he's a fine choice for the halftime show.However, why can't they do something like Big & Rich or Aerosmith again? Football appeals to all races, all income levels and all education levels in the country, so I would guess that bringing music entertainment that appeals to the broadest swath would be the best idea. Namely, classic rock-ish type sounds. This doesn't mean trotting out the Rolling Stones, however. Maybe Bruce Springsteen? He might be too cool to do it.But Cirque Du Soleil? That's fine, I guess, but it's kind of insulting to the common fan. It's like when Larry Flynt was complaing about Playboy in "The People Vs. Larry Flynt." When Playboy mentions hi-fi stereos in a skin mag, they're acting condescending towards their audience. Cirque du Soleil seems to be a comparably bad idea.

Sodboy13 Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 DEAD! needs to post on this thread.Outside of that, I want Prince to sing "Darling Nikki" during halftime so that Tipper Gore, every single television executive, and every NFL bigwig will have a heart attack and drop dead at once.In lieu of that request: Assless pants. And a dunk contest, with pancakes served afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yh Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Hmmmmm, I wonder what he'll sing if it's a Vikings-Ravens matchup?Can't say I'm looking forward to Circque Du Soleil, but Prince should put on a hell of a show at halftime. I'm a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 DEAD! needs to post on this thread. I already have, but the topic title is too long to fit on the main page in order for it say "And the Super Bowl XLI halftime performer is... DEAD!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
