You know what would be a great half time show and it would be incredible. Roger Waters doing three songs from the Wall with fire works and First song would be In the Flesh with the Stuka dive Bomber coming out and crashing into a small wall, then Another Brick in the Wall with the large School master and kids singing, and to finish it off Confortably Numb. It would be one of the best half time Show since the Rolling Stones.

BuckeyTexan: Sorry, FRiend. Both of those girls can “sang.” They have spectacular pipes.

I think there's a generational difference between us here. As for the women yesterday, BuckeyeyeTexan, that caterwauling and vocal gymnastics sure isn't music to my ears. It just sounds like atonal screeching to me at the age of 70. Younger people have probably become accustomed to that kind of noise. And what I like (Vaughn Monroe, Tex Beneke and Patti Page) would probably be unappealing to the Alicia Keys crowd.

Likewise, crazydad, I never was able to latch onto the music of the beatniks and hippies -- Elvis was tolerable since he did some gospel songs such as Peace in the Valley. As for the Rolling Stones, I found their lyrics to be off-putting and not at all Christian. Sorry, but I've never even heard of Roger Waters.

So, give me Hank, Charlie and Lee for good, down-to-earth, wholesome, melodic entertainment. Although it would never happen in these politically-correct times, Bill Gaither or any Southern Gospel musician would be a surefire hit with me at the Super Bowl -- and probably, at best, 0.037% of the total population. :-)

I would have to disagree with you. I have always enjoyed his music, and back in 2004, went to see him at Great Woods in Massachusetts.

It was the most infuriating concert I ever went to, and pretty much soured me on ever going to one again.

His show was the most anti-American event I have ever attended (except for the anti-war, Code Pinko, Westboro Baptist demonstrations down in DC that I have counterprotested)

I sat there and steamed for hours. I didn’t want to ruin it for the other people I went with, and when that SOB inflated a huge, giant helium filled pig at the end with “F*ck Bush” on one side and “Vote Democrat” on the other, it was everything I could do to not explode.

I had always enjoyed his music, some of my favorite albums. Since then, I have been unable to listen at all. THAT makes me angry as well. I don’t take issue with you or anyone who can still enjoy his music, I just can’t anymore. I paid top dollar for that concert, and felt like a chump.

So, I would rather see just about anything else, or nothing at all. Damn him.
