The music has weathered the decades well. Too bad, about the voices!

Re: Half time show!
Great show! I wish they would have done Baba Oreilly, or Behind Blue Eyes, but no complaints.

Re: Half time show!
The Who has been one of my top 3 bands for almost 40 years.
I hate to say it, but I thought that they sucked. I've seen them live 5 times, That was the worst that I've ever heard them.  Art

Re: Half time show!
really liked it. they didn't smash their guitars though. then again, they'd probably throw their backs out doing that nowdays.

 These guys sounded like some half-good garage band, retire w dignity already. I've listened to their music since the early 70's, felt a little sad watching them last night.

Re: Half time show!
Heck, I was watching the game right up til half time and was thinking (the way the colts were playing) it was gonna be a done deal!
Don't know what went wrong with me, other then a long hard day...but woke up to find out the sad news....woke up and was flipping through all the cannels trying to find out what I so desperatly missed!!! (Thinking I need to take more time off for such occasions!!!) Kicking my rear end to this minute.

Re: Half time show!
I know that I am old. I did not need what's left of The Who to remind me of that fact.

Re: Half time show!
When I heard The Who was the show, I threw a glance at my son and told him that I would just rather remember them the way they were...sometimes ya just gotta retire from the limelite, keep Rockin', but you know, keep your dignity too.

Re: Half time show!
For next year's Super Bowl half-time show, I vote that we have a performance of the drill teams, and bands, from the five branches of our Military.
