With typical precision I managed to miss the half time concert!

Just checked it out on good old YouTube.

What is intriguing me is how the heck they set up the stage so quickly!

Maybe it will be shown on BBC i-player!

It must have been pretty impressive to see, and then,
of course, it had to be removed for the rest of the game!

Incredible!

A year to plan it but only minutes to execute it!

I agree, and it's a pity that the performance wasn't the best, though it probably was good,
for people in the arena, I reckon!

Take it easy on The Who. They are 40 years past their prime. If someone wants to offer them a stack of money to top up the pension fund of course they are going to take it.

ok so daltreys voice is not what it was

but just to see one of the greatest bands in history was probably enough for most of the people there

it didn't help them that they were in a grass field stadium

so there were not 5000 scream fans next to the stage pretending to enjoy it, and so making it look better than it was (think bruce last year)

I loved The Who in the Mod era but now they are well past their sell by date...I dont think they should contract a bg gig like this (surely they don't need the money)when they must know they don't have the moxy any more.
Take a look at this from 2006 ..what a difference.

i saw the who live in 2007, and they were amazing, the energy from them blew me away, didn't think they were that bad last night, i don't think a fair judgement can be made on a superbowl ht shoe. imo

You guys are missing the point.At Superbowl you don't have the time or opportunity to do a great set,a quick medley was all that was scripted.They still had the raw edge of a live concert rather than the polished studio sound.Remember it aint easy getting brilliant sound balance at a gig like that.
One thing for sure,it certainly wasn't rubbish,not tip top,agreed,but as ALWAYS with The Who,still exciting to listen to and watch,still a good act.

Didn't see it but they were one of THE great groups.

Thing is, 50% of them are dead, which doesn't help, and the other 50% are a long way past their peak.

Don't know why they do things like this really.
