It's stupid they only want to appeal to those who like pop. As if there aren't thousands of people who also like other styles. Maybe Garth brooks or Blake Shelton if they promise to sniff their nut cheese. Idk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 9 minutes ago, Billsfan1972 said: The point of the show is that 90% of those watching the show have never seen these performers live so it is about the performance and putting.on a show. The chores and whole look was boring. However listening to these entertainment shows all are fawning. Ot was very boring and I'm fine with her music. Putting on a SB half-time show featuring chores is always going to be a risky prop in a pure entertainment sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 She put more energy into commercials for show than show. And that one number had her in red rubber suit reminding me of a show with a guy in an inflatable suit bouncing all around the stage. 23 minutes ago, Goin Breakdown said: It's stupid they only want to appeal to those who like pop.

Idk They should get two bands do a joint performance like Chicago & Earth Wind and Fire did in 2004 at the Greek Theatre, Completely different styles but they pulled it off. Bands could also do pre- and post- shows for paying customers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pqi3WOIwjA8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year, this board of old wet blankets starts all these threads about hating the halftime show even when it’s mostly regarded as great. I feel like the only halftime show that would get any positive threads here would be some old timer artist or band. Anything other than that and this board revolts lol. Last years halftime show won an Emmy, board still hated it lol. Emmys, Oscars, and Grammys all such nowadays too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 The halftime show was wildly meh.. and I don’t mind Rihanna’s music at all. I can’t remember a single moment of the show. Might as well just played one of those random Amazon Music concerts they keep trying to hype people on after Thursday Night Football. Should’ve brought Ye out during “All of the Lights”… everyone I know thought that was about to happen … and then, meh, next song, more forgettable bubble dancers.

Kendrick Lamar talks about smashing a white girl for ancestral revenge in his most recent album. Eminem’s lyrics … ha, ok… Ye says stupid stuff .. but it’s the wrong stupid stuff. Yeezus Ye would’ve been able to perform, but not “this” Ye.. alright, sorry .. I don’t accept that premise. I get why corporate NFL can’t bring him on .. but it’s performative bs.

NoSaint Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Went back and watched without the crowded house and such…. I’ll say some of the staging/cinematography was stunning. Maybe left a little on the table but super cool for the most part. choreography of her dancers still not my favorite, but a little better than first impression setlist and stringing the medley together clicked even less under scrutiny though. Would be curious the thought process on a few transitions. looking back through her catalogue still amazed the ultimate collaborator went 100% solo. Could’ve had so many artists. Heck. Even if wanting to sidestep that image they could’ve had asap do something to be a part of actually announcing the pregnancy via song. It just needed some sort of extra punch to create the iconic moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 So fun fact I didn’t know this until I looked it up the other day people that perform at the Super Bowl don’t get paid I’m quite sure they make that money up in other ways and Rihanna is already like a billionaire, but I never realize that they didn’t get paid for the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I don’t want to watch a glorified dance recital or someone on a platform rising above the field, I would settle for a plain halftime concert with the performers actually singing and playing instruments. These “spectacles” are just boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Higgins hair Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 (edited) LOL, If we could re-incarnate John Lennon, Frank Sinatra or even Elvis, people would complain about the half time show. I think it was en engineering marvel and extremely well rehearsed. . Edited February 14, 2023 by Brian Higgins hair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her performance seemed flat and uninspired, and the Michelin Man dancers were ridiculous looking. Not a fan. Really?

Why not convince him to come out for the “we gonna run this town tonight” song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
