I never understood why the halftime wasn't the finals of the collegiate/highschool marching band competition.  It would be way more entertaining, and would actually mean something.

Lemme tell ya...I had to go downtown today...what a mess.  I'm surprised they got a pot smoking heathen like Paul.  The place was awash in Christian demonstrators, curbside confessional booths, corner evangelicals screaming at each other from opposite corners that the other was going to hell for not being a true Christian.

I don't want Jax to ever host one of these side shows again!

"I go down to Alltel Stadium I’m thunderstruck
They got free speech, tourists, police in trucks
Two men say they’re Jesus one of them must be wrong
There’s a protest singer singing a protest song - he says
’they wanna have a war to keep us on our knees
They wanna have a war to keep their factories
They wanna have a war to stop us buying japanese
They wanna have a war to stop industrial disease
They’re pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind
They wanna sap your energy incarcerate your mind
They give you rule Brittania, gassy beer, page three
Two weeks in espana and sunday striptease’
Meanwhile the first Jesus says ’I’d cure it soon
Abolish monday mornings and friday afternoons’
The other one’s on a hunger strike he’s dying by degrees
How come jesus gets industrial disease"

that is because the First Baptist Church owns downtown Jax

can't imagine how they ever got a SuperBowl, maybe Macon Ga will get the next one...

I don't wanna see Paul's boobie.  Maybe he'll be playing a piano, and when he stands up, a "wardrobe malfunction" would make part of his pants stick to the seat so he'd be mooning everyone.  Then he could say he's sorry and blame the wardrobe people and the piano manufacturer, but he'd still get to moon the whole country.

Then he could finish with a rendition of "whoops I did it again", and Howard Stern could come up for backup vocals dressed as the "Sirius Satellite Radio Fartman" (tm).  That would show the censors, those uptight salamanders.

Or maybe that was the nightmare I had.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

Crowmaw, did ya see the John 3:16 guy with that rainbow afro?  I'm not sure if he's retired or not.  I saw him in person at the GOP convention in Detroit in 1980.

BTW are those lyrics yours?  I can just hear them set to a Bob Dylan tune.  :)

I thought U2 during halftime of the silence of the Rams was pretty good, and I am not a u2 fan. Got it on DVD.

Nope...Dire Straits...as I was wading through all that their song "INdustrial Disease" was running through my head.

I saw Paul during his last tour. Lucked out with a friend who can get skybox seats for many of these events. Great concert. Actually found myself liking his Wings tunes more than his beatles songs.

I actually, no kidding, fell asleep during the halftime show.

Seriously, no joke.  Woke up at one point during 'Live And Let Die', then drifted off again.  

Was sad about the caliber of commercials too.  Nothing as good as the FedEx alien one (http://www.visit4info.com/details.cfm?adid=13762&type=coolad) this year.
