Obviously the light show would be amazing. A great Chalk Dust would probably take up all the time allotted (I think it was 12 minutes long this year).
If they played halftime they should play 2001> tweezer reprise
MeLTz galore!
I wouldn't want my favorite band participating in extraneous cheesey corporate wanker festival super bowl festivities. I also wouldn't want to have to endure the heightened media attention on the scene.
Cue last night being Furthur, maybe CCR, JOURNEY?!@? haha and I'm not sure of any bands from Baltimore.
this is the worst f***ing idea ever.. like, Crystal Pepsi-bad.whoa, whoa, whoa!

If there's a choreographed dance routine a la Destiny's Child, then yes...this needs to happen....time for the meatstick...
Id only support phish playing halftime if the performed single ladies

they were awesome
I was thinking last night that MAYBE, the Grateful Dead COULD HAVE done it, but that would have had to be years ago.
Bad idea? they could get through 1/3 of YEM tho!!!
Baltimore's most notable musician...?
That would probably go over even worse than phish...
OAR was probably the biggest thing here when I was growing up, and they kind of split their roots between MD and Ohio State. They're cheesey enough to do a halftime show probably.

We don't have shit from Baltimore since the Bridge broke up... a few generic funk and jamtronica bands. Deaf Scene is f***ing awesome, but I think they're working out a new drummer. Clutch is from around here, but who gives a f***.OAR Isn't big enough to do a half time show. Not by a long shot, they have played in 2,000 seat college stadiums/venues for the past 15 years. They open for DMB.

As far as Phish, I don't like the idea. In fact I dislike the idea.

I would b most interested in what CK5 would come up with. I think he could come up with some amazing stuff on that scale.That's why Bieber is going to crush it next year.
Just kidding i pray us phans never have to see the day.
Bieber & Kuroda is an excellent idea.
I think the appeal of this is to see your favorite band with all the glitz of the massive spot light. I feel like we get to phish's "halftime show" every NYE from about 11:50pm-12:10am.
@MySoula said:That bios been there since I joined, I saw your post and couldn't resist. Crystal Pepsi refs in this place are too f'n low...even if the flavor blew. I mean when do you get clear pop AND caffeine in one can?@goatsticks said:hahaha, whoa man, if that was a coincidence, that's pretty wild. if not, well played sir.this is the worst f***ing idea ever.. like, Crystal Pepsi-bad.whoa, whoa, whoa!

oh and as far as phish playing halftime
i think it would be awesome at first
then it would get uncomfortable with all the non-phans groaning about how much they hate it
then it would be weird
plus with the limited time and the national audience us as phans aren't going to get the full phish experience we know is possible thus left unfulfilled
but i think phish would pull out some sort of inside joke for the phans to make it cool for us
in the end it's probably not a great idea but i have to admit i did fantasize about it a bit last night...
