Trentwannabe Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I love GNR. All time favourite band. Was fortunate to have seen them twice on their last tour. But zero chance, even in their prime, should they be a selection for the Super Bowl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tugboat Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 11 hours ago, rob_shadows said: A hard rock or heavy metal band will never perform at the Superbowl.... Period. It sucks but it is what it is. We'll get a "pop country" act long before we get any sort of metal band that metal music fans actually like. Even a country-ish band is a longshot with how popular and mainstream it's become...it still has some people who absolutely hate it. Which would make it too controversial and polarizing for the broader audience the NFL want to attract to their Superbowl halftime event. They did country what, like one time 30 years ago? Haven't gone back to that well since...but it's definitely gaining huge momentum as one of the dominant forms of "popular music" today. So i'd reckon that gets a shot again long before they go to any sort of metal music, which is if anything, basically losing popularity and has been since the 80s.

Actually I think he may have already done that before...I swear I remember him performing on a halftime show. Axl should never be let anywhere near a stage during a performance being broadcast live. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, not with Travis there LOL, It'd still cost a solid amount but like. shouldn't be more than double how much she charges to perform most places. Makes about $13.6 per 3 hour show. So I feel like a half time show she could expect like somewhere between that and $25M because it's a shorter show but with super high reach.

Imagine making $25M to be launched as the future president of the United States. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
