McCartney doesn't need to lip sync - what's he got to prove anymore?

That was one of the classiest half-time shows in a long while. No dancers, no "routines", no gangsta's or ho's. Made up for the totally lame pre-game "concert." What the hell was with that thing anyway?

Only faux pas I saw in the pre-game was when they had Michael Chiklis intro the Pat's and used the phrase "wicked awesome" - they obviously had to clean it up for TV - the correct jargon is "wicked pissah."

It was great. The biggest impression it left on me was thinkin'... if only the Beatles had a decent drummer.

The Beatles didn't need a John Bonham or a Keith Moon to accomplish what no other band will ever get close to. He was perfect for the music they produced.

Oh yeah... It's not as if they needed a better drummer to get even more huge. They just would have sounded better.

One thing that annoys me about all the halftime shows is the pseudo fans they always have surrounding the stage.

From the looks of it half the "fans" there are too young to even know any of those songs.
And if they are real fans
They also managed to find probably the only black man in the country who is into the Beatles LOL

Uh...Those "fans" were actually part of the show... It's not like they let whoever wants to go onto the field at halftime to listen to Paul just c'mon down...

Didn't you notice how their waves were all so synchronized? And all of them had a Mini-Mag Lite they held over their heads on the slow songs?

They almost fooled me, to, but when I saw that black Beatles fan I wised right up to their scam.

Plus they all seemed to be color coordinated.... outfitted by GAP or something.

I know. Thats why I called them pseudo fans.

They've had them during halftime show for the last several years at least.

LOL Lamers look like the participents in the Democratic national convention

it's funny you guys mention the black guy - we were talking about how he looked so alone and out of place and he was looking around unlike everyone else who was 'rocking out'

i hate those fake crowds.. didnt really flow with the show this time around at all.

i'm glad they had a tamer version but i really cant see paul McCartney as the answer for what happened last year. not enough energy really..

bands like aerosmith and u2 are perfect for that role. not really my kind of music either but they can get a stadium jumping and do it with class.

Maybe Roger Waters wil rejoin Pink Floyd and could perform at next year's? It would be the best Show ever.

If your talking about the singing of the Star Spangled Banner before the Game Im just happy they didnt butcher the living daylights out of itit the way performers seem to like to do in a pathetic attempt to "Make it their own"

Just sing the damn song. no need for the OaaaAAAAAaaoooos and all that other stupid crap they try to add to it
