Good song , good group.
Here’s my comments, and these with a dollar will get you a cup of coffee.
The singing of the National Anthem is a show of respect to our country. Flub it and it’s disrespect, simple as that.
The best thing about the halftime show was Slash. Fergie’s version of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” was horrendous. I’m sure even Slash went off stage shaking his head. Slash, by the way is not a liberal, he supported W twice. The thing about Fergie is I have the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary Concert on Blu Ray, and her and Mick’s version of “Gimme Shelter” absolutely will give you goosebumps.
As for the rest of the Black Eyed Peas, the work they did with Sergio Mendez was acceptable, other than that, background music at best.
What I miss are the great Black Bands. Somebody get Earth Wind, & Fire for next year!
Here is a decent hard rock song featuring both Slash and Fergie.
