Keith Nivan Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I'd like to begin by thanking Janet Jackson for making this possible ... "Keith" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannoman Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I'd rather hear the Berries. Wally can do anything KR can do -- tastefully and with feeling. Without Mick (a consumate showman) they are just another bar band. Showmanship aside, I'd rather hear Eric sing all night.Just my opinion, which I am sure is not shared by the majority.

Laura Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I didn't think they did a good show. Jagger sounded more breathy than singing, and there were some strange pauses, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sterling Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 So...do you guys think Eric could have done a better job than Mick.? I sure do! Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stringer Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Mick is incredible, didn't miss a step. Longevity and stamina is their biggest asset. Not too many 60's band can keep up with those guys. Still keeping the pounds off too (maybe with a little help). Give'em this one guys!

AnneG Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I wasn't impressed with the show. I think it's wonderful that they are still together on stage "performing" - I give them a lot of credit for that. Yet, I couldn't help but envision the Raspberries on a similar platform and what their selection would be. I didn't think about it for long as it was so clear to me that the Raspberries have so much more energy (and FUN) - and it just didn't seem fair to the Stones' efforts to be making that comparison.

danmichel Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 The performance was good...but the audio mix for TV was bad...Mick's vocal sounded like it was coming out of a karaoke machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I read on MSNBC that there was a 5 second tape delay and that they edited some lyrics. Maybe that's why I thought they sounded bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I really enjoyed the halftime show..(more than I enjoyed the game, I might add) Like most of you, I'd rather hear Raspberries ANYTIME ..but I had fun watching the Stones.

MikeC Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 I didn't catch the game, until near the end of the third quarter. Today, on a rock station after 12:00 P.M., someone said that during a solo guitar part, someone on the sound board couldn't find the right knob. So, what happened is that the guitarest kept playing, until about halfway through the solo, his guitar volume on the sound board was turned up. I've seen this happen before, when other people sing or play. The first group of musicians play, and everything is good. Then, when the next singer sang, someone gave him the wrong microphone, for the string section or something, and there was about 60 percent less volume, for a large crowd. There's alot of confusion, unless someone puts different tape colors on each chord and matches them on the soundboard. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I left the room at halftime. Watching the Stones perform these days is like watching those skeletons perform in the famous Grateful Dead video, "Touch Of Grey". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggsherby Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 They certainly didn't get me all fired up...They were OK...how many times can you hear "Satisfaction" and "Start Me Up" anyway...there was just nothing special about the whole performance!!!The halftime show should have featured multiple "Motown" recording artists...doing a song each....

Tony Cartmill Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Harry, You can get that at most Indian Casinos and Vegas these days...Thank God these old geezers have a venue to still make a living, since the original money was all made by the greedy record executives back in the 60's.

Tony Cartmill Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I say just keep bringing out the no-talent hip-hoppers with their gold bling, and maybe next year we can see Mariah Carey flash her big fake boobies, that she's so proud of......While America continues it's downward spiral into the depths of corruption and cultural HELL!But I digress...
