Black Eyed Peas to perform at halftime at the Super Bowl.

[SP33Demon]

Should have had Metallica already to follow the old trend. Except Metallica still actually makes music that's better than 99% of the stupid pop sht out now.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Surprise guest: Justin Beiber

Can't he die of a drug overdose already?

 

[IceBergSLiM]

they should get rid of it. bring back a marching band.

 

[Deeko]

Prince throws your formula out of wack. Maybe you should expand your listening choices.

Yea, I was surprised, that was an awesome show.

 

[MotF Bane]

*hopes for epic wardrobe malfunction.

This.

Report: Black Eyed Peas to play Super Bowl halftime

Super Bowl Sunday is going to be a good, good night for the Black Eyed Peas. The hip-hop/dance group has been announced as the Super Bowl halftime performers at Cowboys Stadium on Feb. 6, 2011, according to Sports By Brooks.





Apparently Roger Goodell ran out of 60 plus rockers.

yeah I was going to say wtf, were the Mamas and the Papas booked at a county fair somewhere or something

 

[fustercluck]

One of the worst music groups in the past 10 years...also one of the most popular

Seeing as the superbowl is in texas they could have gone with some country music or something, even though that's about the only genre of music I'm not interested in.

 

[BUTCH1]

Prince did a good show, the Who also were good but I thought the best halftime show in recent memory was U2, they just kicked ass!..

 

[foghorn67]

Even if you think she is bad looking, just ignore the face....

If she does have a wardrobe malfunction, we'll be disgusted by either a diaper or pee pad viewing.

Pick one:

1) Good music, bad lyrics, good performers: Black Eyed Peas
2) Bad music, good lyrics, good performs: Modern Rock
3) Good music, good lyrics, bad performers: Classic Rock

Really, you just can't win. You book a The Who or Springsteen and you get a band WAAAAAAY past their prime. You book a Black Eyed Peas and you get good music and performance, but the lyrics quoted above. You book a Weezer or Green Day and you get some good lyrics and performance, but 10 minutes of power chord progressions.

Black eyed peas is NOT good music, and I'm not a pop hater. BEP sucks major balls

 

[zokudu]

I don't understand the unadulterated hatred towards popular music from people. I dislike classic rock music but I don't come into thread about classic rock music and rant about how much better my music is. Its just a personal taste thing I didn't like the last few years halftime shows but I didn't protest them so why not let other people have some music they enjoy?

PS I'm not a huge fan of most popular music either but its palatable. I much prefer various forms of electronic music.

Have you heard Black Eye Peas? Most notably their latest music? DLerium hit the nail on the head.

Its irrelevant what it sounds like you don't have to complain about the mention of any popular music. Do I listen to Justin Beiber? No but I'm not going to complain that he makes music and plays shows. I just don't understand why there has to be such blatant hatred towards music that you may not enjoy.

 

[wheresmybacon]

There are a lot worse bands for the purposes of mass-appeal than Black Eyed Pease; I'm not sure what all the hate is about.

 

[GrumpyMan]

Black Eyed Peas? Man that sucks, I guess Wayne Newton was busy.

Ok, I think this thread is getting derailed.

No one disputes that there is good mainstream music and sure there are always people who invest to much time into things that do not line up with their point of view. However, that is not what is in question. It's the selection of Black Eye Peas that is questionable.

 

[geno]

Well the B.E.P. have admittedly swapped to try and fit into the mainstream. As good as their old stuff is it would never keep them as popular and relevant as they have been in recent times.

I'm sure people will still be playing Boom Boom Pow in another 10 years.

Sorry for derailing. Just grinds my gears at times when I read thread about popular music and theres just bashing everywhere.

Either way I think the Black Eyed Peas are a good enough choice to appeal to a large group. Even my father enjoys a good portion of they're music.

The White Stripes, Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga, Tool, and others are all very popular and don't suck. BEP are pathetic and anyone who likes them automatically has terrible taste in music.

 

[slag]

Boooo! Bring back the Who!

(thankfully) there's (only) one in every crowd.

The who sucks.

*hopes for epic wardrobe malfunction.

That was the first thing i thought of when i read the thread title.

I was going to say the same thing about your choices.

The white stripes? 7 nation army? That song blows as does ALL of their crap. They are a passing fad

Tool? LOL. Zero decent songs.

Lady GAGA? Decent, but not great

Christina Aguilera--There's one we can agree on.

 

[TallBill]

People watch the halftime show?

Your two posts pretty much confirm that you're an idiot.

One?, the Who are old at this point but have sold millions upon millions of albums, CD,s ect over several decades and Roger Daltry (in his prime anyway) was considered one of the greatest rock vocalist's ever, you might be of the opinion they suck but many will think otherwise..
