Tom Petty Delivers Pleasing Super Bowl Halftime Show
OK, we're not complaining but if half time Super Bowl acts keep going in the direction they have been, they're going to have to resurrect Chuck Berry. At the risk of igniting the firestorm we did last year when we seemed to be the only people who had unkind things to say about Prince's halftime show, we're going to go easy this year. And with good reason. Tom Petty did a fine job.
Petty performed all his usual classics on a very cool looking stage shaped and designed like a guitar. We actually enjoyed the show. See? We can be nice sometimes.

I still go "bleh," and the AdGabber chat room agreed with me.
I thought people only swung lighters to be ironic. But apparently Petty still sparks that reaction in the mass.
the stage was the shape of his original band logo, going back to his debut album... a little research wouldn't hurt :-)
Did nobody else notice the phallus flying around the stadium briefly before penetrating the heart? How is this better than Janet's booby? I was waiting for this to happen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWOEx40zLRw
