The Super Who

Joe Miranda February 9, 2010

Sunday February 7thall of america watched the New Orleans Saints and the Baltimore Colts compete in Super Bowl XLIV. The game was great, with some gutsy and surprising calls by the New Orleans Saints coaching staff they were able to upset the favored Colts.

Half time was provided by The Who, a band older than the Super Bowl itself. Prior to the Super Bowl the two founding members of The Who Roger Daltrey and Pete  Townshend armed with a couple of acoustic guitars gave a abbreviated concert with “Behind Blue Eyes”, “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “Pinball Wizard”.

The half time show didn’t disappoint, the laser light show was a nice touch being in sync with the music, and myself being of the older generation I was impressed with the vocals, and with Townshend, now with his stratocaster electric guitar showing they still have what it takes to give a command performance.
