With all the chatter about the Rolling Stones (whom I thought were fine...it's just that their song choices were sooooo boring and predictable), I'm surprised not to see more people talk about how horrible Aaron Neville was, singing his half of the National Anthem. HORRIBLE!

Personally the only one thing interesting were 2 things.

Other than that I thought it a boring little half time. Paul McCartney's show last year was far better even if he does look his age.
First, Jagger did look great. No denying it.
Second, The rule that anyone over the age of 45 couldn't be in the tongue that was first covered, was recalled. Why, because they couldn't find anyone under the age of 45 that wanted to! Hah! No, they got complaints because most of the Stones fans are exactly that age or older. So they allowed it. After the rule was repelled and the senior citizens had won the battle, the gray hairs decided that being in the mosh pit enviroment covered by a heavy, smelly tarp wasn't exactly the kind of thing they were into. Those cushy seats in the stands just seemed so much better. LOL!

Past that, it was nice to see the "boys" again. Kickin ass even if they did sound average. It was nice to see Ronnie Wood able to stand after his rehab trip to the institute of herion addiction. It was nice to see Keith looking as wicked as ever and not wheeled out. One of life's ironies. If anyone should have been dead 25 years ago, Richards was one. Proves that sex, hard drugs and rock and roll must be good after all. And of coourse, there's Charlie Watts. What can ya say aboout Charlie? I can't think of a thing except that he looks older than Keith. Hope I still have the body looks of Mick 40 years from now when I hit 62.
LOL!
