Next year they need a white artist for the halftime show, preferably playing hard rock. I nominate Laura Jane Grace.

You mean the grass? It was weird that they apparently had 500 people wear those grass costumes for the show but the grass didn't do anything other than stand still. I definitely expected them to have some sort of more elaborate role

A listing for the Field Cast required participants to be between 5-foot-10 and 6-foot-1. The role involved performers learning and executing synchronized movement as part of the show’s visual production. It also required the ability to wear costumes weighing up to 40 pounds for extended periods, stand and move for long durations, learn and execute precise movement under time pressure, and commit to an intense rehearsal schedule leading up to game day.#
According to#Wired, Levi’s Stadium limits the number of carts allowed on the field to protect the real grass, forcing Bad Bunny’s production to get creative with on-field visuals.

Oh and I did see a time lapse from up high, they did move around some as BB was going thru the set for audience visuals and filming.

Tom Morello would be very entertaining! Sure, he doesn't have the global cache of a guy like Bad Bunny, but that performance would get an unbelievable amount of publicity after the fact! Or maybe Jack White?

There was a kid rock-incited Trump chant during the all-white supremacist concert and it was very cringe and culty. Like what? The super bowl isn't even about Trump.

While Green Day and BB could have made their own f-ice chants or something of the like they chose to keep it about good vibes instead (or at least were told to and complied).

American Idiot is a truer song now than when it came out. Wish they just played an extended version of that instead of Boulevard of Broken Dreams. Come on, you got a whole catalogue of pump up punk-rock and you play your sad ballad at the Super Bowl?

Such a strange question to ask, when it would be quicker to go to YouTube and search lol. But yes, they are.

Green Day sounded good. I find these performances to be lacklustre though (and the halftime show) just because they obviously cant have a bunch of fans on the field getting pumped, so they always have that rush of 'fans' to party near the front and it's just kinda lame.

Holiday, Broken Dreams, American Idiot. I skipped Broken Dreams. What are you doing? Play Minority or something off Dookie.

Did they sound better than when they played the Grey Cup a couple of years back? Maybe it was the venue but they just sounded flat and unenthusiastic.

Remember a few years ago when Green Day played the NHL All Star Game and he kept swearing on live tv?

Must've been gestapo snipers on him to actually keep him in line.

There is usually very little restraint from him.

American Idiot is their best record by far.

I don’t think you can go wrong with either that or Dookie. I don’t hate Broken Dreams as a song, it’s just not the space for it. Minority would have been great and just as prescient as American Idiot.

Puked in my garbage can a few hours ago. My wife and the chiro (I know troutman) recommended it.

Had a couple Aleves this morning and totally worked but I was nauseous all morning. Started to seem to wear off so I had two more before lunch, feeling grosser. In a zoom meeting to go over this boring list of sites with this guy to buy down for power service we are not using. So in the middle, I tell him, sorry I think I am gonna puke. So he got to watch me puke in my garbage can on camera. So I did that 7 times and told him we have to re-schedule. That was embarrassing.
