Soapbox stand parroting the same shit loads of people have over the years: Props to France because Roger Gooddell doesn't have the courage to let a popular metal band i.e. Metallica etc play the Super Bowl Halftime $how. From a business perspective, I get it- attract younger/wider range of viewers, be HIP or whatever, but there's been some real stinker halftime shows the in the last 20 years and Metallica deserves it and I'm not a Metallica fan in the slightest. When Jay Z brought back the late 90s/early 2000s hip hop montage a couple years ago it was pretty nice. Now do classic metal. They won't. Instead we'll get more Moron 5 and The Wkendesque stuff. They're trying to pull Taylor Swift because that's their golden goose. Boooo.
