[semagic]

i've always been a fan... but i didn't think he would sound as good as he did

Bleah, same tired songs and the tone sucked balls.

And, what, you didn't have time to do the halftime show?
So they didn't call you?

I guess second best Petty worked out ok, though.

oh god it's ur birthday, don't be a grynch!!

i thought mix was pretty good actually. alot better than they usually do.

I know most here probably don't like his type of music, but I do, its a nice change.
He had a concert special that aired on a local network awhile back.
He sounded good, good song selection and to top it off Stevie Nicks came out a sang 2 or 3 with the band.
I enjoyed it.

I have yet to hear any artist sound decent performing half time for the superbowl.
The tweaking and mixing of the sound is bad at best and they nearly always pick songs that don't sound good under such circumstances.

But I am right.


BTW, anybody know how much a band gets for doing the halftime thing? 500K?
1 mil?

How much more does Petty get than those Heartbreakers?

And why do they need 3 guitarists?

[Cygnus X1]

I loved his raw sound on "Damn the Torpedoes", back in the day.
He, and George Thorogood, were some of what made me want to play guitar.

What broke my cynical balls was the lighters. That was a great show.

[Cygnus X1]

SW was speculating he would not do any "Solo" songs, thus no "Running", no
"Won't Back Down", etc.
Something about royalties.
Welp. She was wrong this time, thank goodness.

i seriously doubt the heartbreakers are hurting for cash and why do other performers need three singers? and yes your wrong about the tone... geesh!

[RacerX]

Well, your post sucked! Hahahaha! You didn't answer any of my questions, ya fanboy.

ok... ok...

1. i read the the eagles turned downed 500k to do the show.
2. i think they wanted easy cash
3. the tone was pretty good for tom petty

happy now.

If Tom was short of cash he isn't now. That is if he owns his songs. And I think he does.
