Wow. That halftime show really sucked. The sound was terrible for at least half of the first song due to a guitar was left out of the mix, amonst other things. Even if the sound was perfect, though, the Stones would have sucked. First of all, I think they're one of the most overrated rock bands. Sure, they have a number of good songs, but so do a lot of bands who don't get nearly the attention these guys do. Secondly, they've been a band longer than the Superbowl's been played. I'm impressed by their longevity and I wish them all the best, but they're way too old to be an appropriate act for the biggest ratings event of the year.
Mick Jagger was an ugly dude when he was in his prime. Now he's like the crypt keeper. Worse yet, the crypt keeper was wearing a shirt that showed off midriff and was gyrating like he's still (or ever really was) a sexual icon. Watching him hump the air in the audience's direction was like watching old people having sex. Thank goodness there weren't any wardrobe malfunctions. *shudder*

I have to say that I think the sound was really as good as it could've been, given the circumstances. The people had TEN MINUTES to set up an ENTIRE STADIUM ROCK SHOW. It takes my band half an hour to set up to play a coffeehouse, and we don't have all that much equipment.
