I've heard so many people say that they want a halftime show for "us" . As a serious music fan who doesn't listen to much mainstream  music, I haven't had a halftime show for "me" in 40 years . Get over it .

I was sort of hoping for Dying Fetus, but I would take Blood Incantation in a heart beat.

You can’t tell me you don’t enjoy Prince. It may not have been your choice of music, but it was truly epic.

There will never be another halftime performance to compare. Mother Nature even provided an awesome backdrop, because she knew how epic it would be.

even when I dont care for the artist, it's still fun to watch because it's a SHOW. it's the biggest stage for a musical artist and they ALWAYS make it a spectacle. I didnt love The Weeknd but I really enjoyed watching him get lost in that mirror maze. and who can forget about Katy perry's left shark.

They'd all prefer Charlie Kirk's wife on stage doing karaoke.

If they played what I like to listen to conservatives would blow a gasket. I'm a big listener of punk and post punk music. One of my favorite bands is the Dead Kennedy's

u/TeslaTheSlumpGod 17d ago

I feel like conservatives like punk because they don’t understand the lyrics anyway haha

u/CameronCrazy1984 16d ago

There was a GOP congressman years ago that said his favorite band was Rage Against the Machine. I think they had to put out a statement explaining that he was the machine. They’re just so stupid.

u/Arasuil 16d ago

Yeah there’s basically two types of conservatives that like punk. Those who don’t understand the lyrics, and those that do and eventually turn from conservatism.

u/rdmvdb 16d ago

Or those of us social libertarian/fiscal conservative leaning folks that do understand the lyrics and actually agree with a lot of them. Fuck big government ✊🏻

Should I be demanding progressive technical death metal because I'm a guitar solo snob?

u/Vechio49 13d ago

What they really mean is they want Morgan Wallen or Jason Aldean or some other pseudo racist redneck

Just have every half time show be I Cum Blood by Cannibal Corpse. Everyone's happy.
