man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

I love Tom Petty. I really do, but that Halftime Show was boring as hell.

It doesn't compare to titty flashing and singing Purple Rain in the rain.

The problem is that, despite what they said, Tom Petty is not one of the biggest names in the history of rock. No disrespect to Tom, but you don't go from Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, and Prince to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

FWIW, even though I know it was from his solo album, I really wish he had done "You Don't Know How It Feels." Of course, it would've had to be edited... lol

Yeah, that would've sucked. lol I knew about Tom Petty. I actually like his stuff like "Don't Come Around Here No More" (remember that video where he was playing the Mad Hatter? evillol ).

the show wasn't nearly as boring as the game...

Tom Petty has never been a flashy showman...his songwriting has always been his strong suit...I thought the show was decent....

to most non Prince fans I know, last years halftime show wasn't anything special...just Prince playing music...tonite, just Tom Petty playing music...


my question...why the hell did Jordan Sparks have to lip sync the national anthem...whofarted

I don't know if i'd say it was the worst ever, but it wasn't anything to write home about. After the whole JT/Janet fiasco, they have been playing it safe and only booking boring performers (Prince being the exception of course).

Gotta agree. The game is ho hum and so was Tom Petty. He may have a solid fan base but he's not on a par with McCartney, Stones, Janet, Prince.

Tom Petty isn't showy but he has some great music. I missed it, but I'm sure he did his thing.

All I could think was "God, he looks so old." I mean, he was always ugly, but damn. He looks old now too. The music was good, but it was pretty boring as half-time shows go.

It was good but it showed me one thing. Prince needs to do all the halftime shows from now on. wink
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

He looked like Father Time with blond hair. When I saw him I went."Damn what happened?" Homeboy was looking kinda rough there. nod

No.

He gave a quote where he said he didn't know why Prince wasn't ever mentioned when discussing the greatest guitarists ever
