So the halftime entertainment is for the 1500 NFL players?
Super Bowl halftime show
- Thread starter Charlie Marlow
- Start date
GVF sounds like Led Zeppelin who were one of the most popular bands of all time. If that doesn't have popular appeal, then I really don't know what does. Not that GVF is anything close to my favorite band, but I think they would do fine. I'm beyond sick of the rap/black fetishization and it needs to die. It's hijacked American culture and we're worse off for it.
Are the fans aka the money that supports said players mostly black? Running a business on what the employees like over the consumer will doom said business .. I know you’re super woke, but c’mon- use some common sense
GVF live is nothing like the radio version or the album version. The singer is way more screamy than Plant. To the point of a headache. I love Greta Van Fleet on the radio and on my music devices, but live I was not impressed.
What are the odds Ze has a rational response to these statements? What are the odds Ze responds at all? -300ish?
Too much value placed on the entertainment factor. Need to move the needle back towards good music. Doesn't mean a guy just standing there with an acoustic guitar, but a lot of good artists aren't going to dance around in order to play the halftime show. That or just put super hot women up there.
I left the tv on to help the economy...but did'nt watch any of the Super Bowl...so I tried to help
The Super Bowl audience is far from it. The Super Bowl is the one time non-football fans tune in primarily for the halftime show. That is why advertisers pay massive sums for a broadcast spot. Choosing an artist that most people have never heard or even heard of is a big mistake. Also, many shows were collaborations to try to appeal to a wider audience.
The NFL since 2020 has over-emphasized black artists, probably from social pressure. The world has changed and they should too.
I also get tired of people pretending that shows by black artists are better than they are, probably to show how not racist they are. This show was the worst I've ever seen. Rihanna and The Weeknd also had bad shows. Usher's was good and entertaining last year, as was the Snoop Dog/Dre/Eminem show.
Your really need to "understand what was being said" to like music? I don't. I bet you don't know half the lyrics to your favorite songs. My wife and I laugh all the time about the dumb lyrics we've made up to well known songs. Leading off, of course, with "Blinded by the light, wrapped up like a douche...."
When I was a very young man and Glen Campbell came out with Rhinestone Cowboy and I was singing along loudly in the kitchen with my mom...the line where he says he gets cards and letters from people he doesn't even know...I belt out "getting carrots and lettuce from people I don't even know....pretty sure my mom is still laughing in her grave.

My wife will treasure her memory forever of my oldest son belting out "We built this City" by Starship. Instead of singing "We built this city on rock and roll" he would sing " We built this city on raw candles!"
Sorry to say, that was the worst performance of all time. I just can’t relate to this kind of genre.
