Ok, I didn’t think Steve, for one, was trying to be cool, but here’s an e-mail on our half-time show comments:
You guys are trying way to hard to be cool. I’m a 28 year-old musician, and
the half-time show was the best that I’ve ever seen. Most years it’s
completely forgettable crap, with medleys using some combination of old
washed up rockers (Aerosmith, Gloria Estefan, Phil Collins) and whatever
happens to be in the top ten that week (Nelly, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Enrique
Iglesias, New Kids on the Block, etc.). This year, they let a real
professional do the show, and it was great. It was fun, it was
entertaining, and it was a spectacle, everything you could possibly ask for
in a half-time show.
ME: How dare he malign Phil and Gloria!
