What does that say about today’s music when we have to go back to the early 70’s to dredge up ‘The Who’. At least the Rolling Stones had some other hit songs scattered through several decades. Concerts now are so much about the
visual gimmicks, stage theatrics etc... the music suffers from it! IMO.

Well, they certainly had plenty of visual gimmicks there last night, eh? Of course, it *was* the Super Bowl. My husband said because of all the "fireworks," it wasn't quite as important that their older voices weren't right on key, but they did a nice job. We were joking that instead of doing a couple hits from a bong, they were probably taking a few pulls from some holistic high energy drink before coming on stage. But you're right about today's music. I'm wanting Fleetwood Mac to come back for next year's Super Bowl. I've watched "The Dance" on TV probably thirty times.
