Now, that's a winner... you do a Foo Fighters with special guests and that would rock.

I was pleasantly surprised with Gaga's performance. I was a little shocked that I knew more of her songs than I thought I did.

Now this right here would make an awesome halftime show

I think the only one I enjoyed in recent memory was Bruno Mars. Songs are corny but the dude can sing. Katy Perry and that reeruned shark was funny, I guess.

They must keep saying no.

A little thing about Prince's cover of Best of You

LOL Pete

Wet fart sound.

You can bet he plays a mean skin flute, though

This band will be a good excuse to step onto the porch for some fresh air and a doobie

Not really, everyone knows maroon 5 is garbage

also i didnt know they were still together either and i follow pop music a decent amount

thought adam levine was doing his awful, awful solo shit

No babymetal??? Wow, can't believe they picked a trash act for the 53rd year in a row!! It's like they're not even trying to appeal to their 50 year old white male fanbase with this shit or something.

I'd personally go for a Toby Keith/Nickelback/Bruce Springsteen/Jackyl collaboration; but that's just me.

I'd rather watch a 3D hologram of Prince than Maroon 5

Why does Levine look like he would rock hard, but his band is like a step above Barry Manilow?

Superbowl halftime shows are for women and gay dudes.

I'm not even being glib. That's who it's for.

How many football fans actually watch these things?

For the same crowd that only watch for commercials.

Generally acts that demographically target women and gay men don't really catch my radar.

The halftime show is intended to appeal precisely to the type of people who don't LIKE football.

Which is why I don't care. I don't watch this shit anyway. I'm not a 14 year old girl. ROFL

But clever comment claiming all NFL fans are 50 year old white dudes edgelord.

Yup. The people who care about it as a social event rather than a sporting event.

I'm not hating. I just see it for what it is.

I hate watching the Super Bowl to be honest. I can't stand the media circus and I work in Advertising. It's disgusting.

I watch the Puppy Bowl at halftime and have never regretted it.

I’ve never watched the halftime show and have missed a lot of the Super Bowls, especially when a bitter Chiefs playoff loss precluded it. I would probably watch it if Slayer performed at halftime, though.

Huh?

Oh, I thought it was a solo song.

I'm happy to not know Maroon 5 well enough to know that though.

Well **** me I thought it was going to be a local up and coming indy band.

I don't think I've ever heard of these guys. Are they guys?

This.

It's debatable.

Artists?

Have you really heard Cardi B?

Literally, they pull people off the street, put them up on Youtube and boom, 1 million views!

Can't hate on Cardi. She built herowndamnedself up on youtube by setting herself apart from the pack. Whether it's your vibe or not, she's in charge of her choices, visuals and sound.

Better that than some pedo grooming kids for test marketed images and beats.

Cardi's an auntypennurrr, OKerrrrr.

Ladies and gentlemen!

Jacob Sartorius...

:D

LimpBizkit would have been a better choice

I wanna hear him sing Cat Scratch Fever the live version while holding his bow and arrow with the gun on stage and then watch the MeTooMovement all drop dead in shock! ROFL

Picking a band for mass market appeal for the biggest watched event of the year? Weird...

It will be the Korean boy band next year.

I cant name a song of theirs I like. But, I am glad that the NFL is putting "hot" music in the Super Bowl halftime show other than those old and 2nd tier acts that they had for a 10 year stretch when people watched a puppy bowl instead of their show.

The Super Bowl is an unofficial holiday. If they want it to stay that way and relevant, they shouldn't play the music that I like.

You might be right! :D

SB Halftime is when you mute the TV, go get some more beer and food and talk about the first half.

Online message boards always are full of people that are too cool to know who ****ing Maroon 5 is, one of the biggest bands in the world right now. You have to literally live under a rock to not know who they are. Cardi B is actually pretty good. If she talks she sounds like a ****ing reerun, but her music is pretty good.

If you follow pop music and didnt know that Maroon 5 is together then you are a reerun. They go on huge tours alot and regularly have top 5 singles.

I bet your boyfriend disagrees with this assessment...

Who follows pop music other than 14-year old girls and soccer moms?

*

Bieber likely had a ton of top singles and was a big draw all over the world. It still doesn't change the fact his 'music' sucks.

[Cough]

My favorite song!!!

Hoping to see Moran5 play Get A Brain!

GO USA

I think I'm gonna go watch Sammy Davis Jr play the drums instead.

At first it sucked...then it got pretty cool...the it was awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Foo Fighters will be coming to Atlanta on Super Bowl weekend for a show on February 2, 2019 at Atlantic Station.

The band tweeted, “Foo Fighters are stoked to be coming to Atlanta to play @DIRECTV Super Saturday Night w/ special guests @runjewels!

**** off Maroon 5. Hate your shit. Except for that one song.

Maroon 5 doesn't suck, they just don't fit everyone's taste. They have a completely different sound than most bands and Levine is legit. I don't mind some of their faster shit like Maps, Animals, and Lucky Strike but the ballad shit like She Will Be Loved is a bit much for me. My wife loves them though... so I've had to learn to pick and choose with them...

I'd love to see Great Van Fleet headline though... ****.

Posers

I agree. Not a big Bruno fan but he did a great job. Had a legit plan. Didn't care for the cameo but even that Bruno made an effort to sell.

I think that’s premature. Give them 3 LPs because they do have talent. I think the guitar solos in The New Day, for example, are quite good.

Thats OK, I'll probably have to take a shit and a piss because I'm not leaving the TV when the Chiefs are in the Super Bowl!

NOT OLD AND WHITE ENOUGH!!!!

Maroon 5
 

I'd rather watch ME perform the halftime show

Just another shit show .what a maroon 5 is.and people on here bitch about the old and has beens at least Springsteen and The Who had talent at one time. Adam levin or what ever his name is .oh ya he's a rockin rolla

I think that's the issue here on CP... everyone and their brother bitches if it isn't a classic rock band and then whatever's left wants hard rock. I think there's a very select few, like eDave, that want a philharmonic orchestra.

In any event, any other genre automatically is dismissed as trash, like Maroon 5, even if they are anything but trash within that genre. I don't personally care for Maroon 5 all that much either but I'm not about to say they are trash. Levine has a girly voice but he has sick talent.

I'd rather Disturbed or FFDP, personally, but I'm never getting that at the Super Bowl. I said I'd like GVF because they are probably the best rock band that fits the profile. Not bad when they have a guitarist that reminds of a young Billy Gibbons and a singer that reminds of Robert Plant and sometimes Geddy Lee. I really look forward to watching that band evolve, they're really quite good no matter what Dave says.

I ****ing hate Maroon 5. Like beyond hate them. Levine or whatevers voice is just got awful. Like Dave Matthews Band awful voice.

Would have liked Imagine Dragons + The Chainsmokers or something.

Maroon 5 is ****ing garbage.

Were they ever relevant?

Imagine Dragons is millennial for Nickleback.

I liked pre-2005 Maroon 5.

Imagine Dragons is far better than Nickleback.

https://media.giphy.com/media/zbzNUbpFnlw8E/giphy.gif


IG took the 'Nickleback' safe corporate rock model and updated it for the millennial generation.

They're good for about 10 minutes of spectacle, in the vein of Blue Man Group or Ricky Martin, but once you've seen it, you seen it.

Haha, what? Imagine Dragons is the definition of average guy corporate rock. The analogy to a younger version of Nickleback is spot on.

LMAO.... thanks, Kaeperdouche!!

They should just make a hologram of Prince's halftime performance and show it every year.

All pop music is trash pretty much. There's a reason this stuff has mass appeal. The "masses" are mindless and have virtually no taste.

GOOD!

So where is the smart money, folks?

As everything gets politicized on an evermore granular and insistent level, and as every aspect of daily life becomes a litmus test for social philosophies, is the smart money on eventual grand consensus or eventual grand combat?

Are people going to eventually agree on everything, or at least pretend to? Or are they eventually settle on permanent battle?

Or will the eventual casualty of this dynamic be this reeruned demand for either comprehensive solidarity or comprehensive exile?

The Wiggles will be the new halftime act.

Are The Wiggles gender restrictive, or are all genitalia granted equal liberty to wiggle?

Oh no. Hope they can get babymetal now!

Infinitely better than Maroon 5.

Would prefer the much less well known and poppier Billie Idle but even if they were well known in the states, it wouldn't happen due to the history of three of the members.

Can’t thwy get some junk ass broke dick band from the 70/80s to perform?

Journey?

I agree. It's the first thing he's done that I agree with. :D
