There were negotiations, but the two sides could only get halfway there.
Yeah and now Gina has to continue to work at that damn diner all day.
Who’s playing in the Super Bowl?
Maybe if they got Cinderella or Kix to appear with them. That should pump up the young crowd.*
Unfortunately I feel same way about college football due to….well no reason to beat that dead horse again.
I grew up in the late Classic Rock/ early Hair Metal era and considered myself pretty well versed. Saw a lot of the Hair Metal bands in concert , hundreds of cassettes and CD’s but I’d never heard of Kix until I got free Sirius Xm with a new vehicle purchase about ten years ago. Don’t know how I missed them.
They weren't part of the "Jersey Boys" grouping and were from Baltimore, IIRC, and their window of notoriety was shorter than most.
They really could have locked down that middle age / elderly white guy demographic they have been unable to attract this far.
HEAR THAT, GODDELL? You just screwed yourself!!11!
Greenday is literally performing with him dude. Also just about everybody else you named is ancient or hasn't performed in years. Every time the elderly complain about this dude they ask why cant they just get X. And its always some from the 70s or maybe 80s. Yall act like the 65+ demographic is the only one out there or spends money.
There is also a rumor going around that he gave the Packers QB a bad name.
I was an avid Hit Parader reader.
Yes, I know Green Day is performing with the but that's one band out all the famous bands from that area. You don't keep up with music I can see. Journey, still touring. Doobie Bros, still touring, Huey Lewis putting out new music, Metallica still touring, Steve Miller was touring last year so that dog won't hunt.
What's Flock of Seagulls up to? Maybe Winger? Good thing we have a whole year to coordinate this, I bet their schedule is packed.
Yeah because the NFL wants another The Who performance by boring people in their 70s and 80s. The only one remotely entertaining on that list would be Metallica and Green Day. Have you not listened to a new band since 2000? I also imagine you're going to be big mad about Green Days message during their performance.
Why the NFL stood by Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl halftime show
The NFL has stood by its decision to book Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl halftime show despite Trump administration criticism.
I’m just 17’n with ya, it was about money
Can we get Blues Traveler? Every time one of their songs comes on, I tell my kids how much fun I had at their concert at the Hump. Every time. If I don’t get an eye roll, I repeat the story.
Blues Traveler is for my money the world's foremost 2 Hit Wonder. In second place behind them is .38 Special
From a business standpoint it's an absolute horrible decision. I'm guessing about 50% will not watch. That's not a smart business move anyway you slice it.
I'll just go ahead and get this outta way. EFF Green Day and EFF you to. How's that junior?
I’m willing to bet that this will be one of the highest rated halftime shows of all time. Old white people hated Kendrick Lamar and complained about him, but 133 million people watched his halftime show last year. I bet Bad Bunny gets just as good a number, if not better.
Man that was something I wish I never learned years ago. I can't help but think about that when I hear their songs now.
Doobie Brothers? You seriously think that in 2026, the 17ing Doobie Brothers are who should headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show? Love their music from 40 and 50 years ago, but they were big a literal half century ago.
What did Green Day do to you? They are just playing to open and not the Halftime show.
