billsfreak Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 U2 would work, but it would take a boatload of cash . . . U2 was just there a few years ago?
SouthernMan Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Tom Jones Tony Bennet ZZ Top Finally, someone said it. I looked through 8 pages of this thread to see if anyone said the most obvious answer to the question. That little ol' band from Texas seems like the obvious choice for the first Superbowl in the new Dallas stadium. They're commercial as all hell, and certainly fit the bill for having wide appeal and putting on a rocking show for the masses. That said, they're another one of those bands whose best recorded work was albums 1 and maybe 2, and after that they sold out. Laughing all the way to the bank. Another classic Texan - Steve Miller. Fogarty would have the same marketing appeal as all the recent acts. Lots of well known classic hits and fun party songs everyone knows the words to. Eagles - same thing.

Dixie Chicks are from Texas..maybe a little wide left for ole jerry and the NFL though.

I would love to see ZZ Top play, but are they old enough to qualify?
SouthernMan Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 At a football game??????? Where the hell did you come up with THAT idea? Marching bands? Classic Rock acts? Sounds like a call to Fleetwood Mac.
Fan in San Diego Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Black eyed Peas would be good. How about George Thoroughgood?
LeviF Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Marching bands? Classic Rock acts? Sounds like a call to Fleetwood Mac. Tusk!
1billsfan Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Black eyed Peas would be good. How about George Thoroughgood? Aren't they one of those "hip" rap bands that like to drop the f bomb every other word? NFL will never have a rap artist or band that can't help themselves to show the world they know every four letter word. Who knew that the C & C Music Factory shtick would still be popular today.
yungmack Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Commercial Country music on the radio is just pop with a southern accent.I've hung out in bars in Nashville That's where you see the REAL talent.... I've heard what passes for country music today called "nothing more than rock and roll played by second rate bar bands."

No your thinking of someone else. They have been on Oprah and stuff. They have mainstream material.
yungmack Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Pink Floyd. Would love to watch the reaction in the high-priced boxes of the NFL poohbahs to "Money."
Bufcomments Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Modern....Beyonce + JayZ , if she has a malfunction JayZ will just smile lol Classic... Frankie Berverly and Maze, you can never go wrong with some old R+B

trolls_r_us Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Bob Dylan! He is known for being freaking AMAZING live! Seriously though.... the ultimate SB halftime show would be STYX! Saw them last summer and they were freaking AWESOME! They sound just as good as ever and they have a ton of energy!
