    The only reason I watched the first half of the game was to make sure I didn’t miss any of the halftime show. Once the show was over the TV went off. They are old and sounded a little off at times but still worth seeing.

    They are both 65 years of age. It did seem like Peter had his back turned to the camera on the close-ups. But still. I hope I have that much energy at 65!

    That was the most horrible half-time show ever. They should have kept Carrie Underwood around. And I hate country. Can’t wait to see what has been they have next year.

    Carrie did a wonderful job on the national anthem.

    Ten years from now when favre is fifty and wins the SB, Metallica will have a kick azz half time show!

    “THE WHO” rock, Roger’s voice has lost quite a bit over the years, and Pete can still swing the axe. What I really enjoyed seeing was how Keith Moon’s kid was all over those drums!!! I’ve heard he is one if not the only reason Roger and Pete had even considered performing again… to the WHO

    it was pitiful. and i love the who….10 seconds of pinball wizzard and a bunch of songs they sold to CSI was a snoozefest. the childporn addict can still play guitar but Roger’s voice was horrible.

    I thought it was a pretty good half time show, atleast we didn’t see chicken skin hanging off Mick Jagger’s arm, in his skin tight “muscle shirt” when the Rolling Bones did there show now that was pathetic

    at one point, it looked like he was off so I started watching closely, but couldn’t tell. Then, both my wife and I saw Roger make it look like he was lipsyncing. He bent over with and his mouth was closed but yet he was still “singing”. Either way, they can still rock.

    Lipsync or not, it was enjoyable to see them on stage again, even if they didn’t sound as good as they used to.

    Rogers voice has been slipping for quite a few years now. Had the pleasure seeing them in Des Moines a few years back, front row. Awesome concert then, lackluster performance yesterday
    Lip sync? Have to expect it, don’t really care

    What always amazes me is the elaborate stage and pyro shows at half. Must be a hell of a crew to slap that together and break down in twenty minutes

    Did anyone else see thier walkers on the side of the stage? does the nfl think that the who are a current band? i was embarressed for those guys. i remember seeing them after the grateful dead at alpine valley. they do not still rock!!! they use to rock. what a dissappointment, i’m with the guy that wanted carrie underwood, now she is at least fun to look at. who cares what she would’ve sang. she’s hot! at least that queen latifa chick didnt start singing god bless america in spanish after she made it go gospel.

    Roscoe, you and your daughter are right and I missed getting that info down right. (guess my party affected me more than I thought) Zak Starr plays drums for the Late Keith Moon….I thought he did a damn good job…just MHO….The album “WHO’s NEXT” is one if not my all time favorite
