They've already announced The Who will be performing this year. I don't see DMB pulling off the crazy, eccentric act that is needed for the Superbowl.

That would be sooooooo awesome! If you go to foxsports.com , vote for DMB to play the half-time show.

I definitely think they can pull this off in the next 5 years as long as they're still touring.

Re: DMB to play at Super Bowl XLIV?

I'm pretty sure playing the halftime show of the Super Bowl is indicative of a band being washed-up and passed their prime. So, DMB should stay away from the super bowl as long as possible.

Re: DMB to play at Super Bowl XLIV?

In fact, playing the Super Bowl has brought a lot of commercial success to the bands who have played it recently. A great example was Tom Petty. His ticket sales had languished and then he did the Super Bowl with the tickets going on sale the next day. Promotional genius in my opinion. BTW, he sold the fuck outta tickets, selling 3/4 of the capacity of the venues booked the following day after the Super Bowl. DJGen has it right, those bands have done quite well since playing it.

McCartney, Prince, and Petty were the three best shows in my opinion the past few years.

Re: DMB to play at Super Bowl XLIV?

I guess I was mainly referencing The Stones in that regard. It was just an awkward performance when they played. Also, in my mind, Prince and Tom Petty do not represent current music. Tom Petty being more 70s and 80s and Prince being the 90s. They gave fine performances.

So you're saying The Who is washed up? I don't think so.

Not at all. Saw him in Nashville last week for the first time and it was an amazing show.
