I'm sure most people watched the Super Bowl last night. I'm not even a football fan and I wanted to see if the Pats could go on to have a perfect season. But no, the Giants upset the Patriots and everyone in Boston is crying today. I was actually rooting for Boston though, because I wanted to see them go 19-0. But besides watching the endless amount of unfunny commercials and a low scoring football game, there was also the half-time show with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Could they have gotten a more boring half-time show performance?! Talk about playing it safe. I've never really been a fan of Tom Petty's music before but he did play his classics, but just a little slower. But come on, I'm sure they could have gotten a better band to perform the half-time show...and one that wasn't going to put most of the audience to sleep. What about bands that still actually can walk across the stage without breaking their hips and that can actually FUCKING MOVE!
I thought the Police would have been a great band to have played the half-time show. I know it would have been a long shot but maybe they should have gotten the Mighty Mighty Bosstones to play, since you know, they are from Boston after all. But many people probably don't even know who they are. Another thing missing was special guests from the half-time show. Usually guest singers and musicians would come out and surprise the audience, but they didn't even have that. It was just a boring, old fart Tom Petty playing his music. The performance may have been boring but at least Tom Petty didn't lip sync like some other people. *cough* Paula Abdul *cough*
