Re: Super Bowl Halftime

Best part of the half time show!!!!

Re: Super Bowl Halftime

Indiana is the home of "Bands of America" and "DCI". I couldn't tell whether the drummers were actually playing or Madonna was actually singing--pre-recorded music.

Madonna is over 50 years old and this is probably the only gig should could get. I did notice that she lost her balance and after that seemed real tentative in moving. Was waiting for the talking heads on the show to analyze her performance.

I think the Super Bowl is in New Jersey in a couple of years. Maybe they'll have Lady Gaga do the half time.

Game was pretty decent but I've have preferred to see the 49ers rather than the New Jersey Giants.

Re: Super Bowl Halftime

I don't think the game could have been any better! But I thought halftime was boring, though I also wondered about the drummers. Indiana is very strong for high school bands. There were also drummers playing with Kelly Clarkson during the National Anthem.
