What a pointless topic. You may as well talk about how it would be cool if your bank slipped a couple of million your way and headline it: BumFuck Continental Bank = 2 Million Dollars Free For Every Customer ? ? ? ? ? ?

People rip on this "idea" or "wish", but I think it would be super cool!!

If your a sports fan, you would love to see something like this happen.  And as far as promoting yourself, or your band, this is a huge deal.  Millions and Millions of people watch this.  You are definately on center stage!

People who think this is stupid, I just don't get you?  Are you just not a sports fan?  Or do you think GN'R would be "selling out"?  Selling out, my ass!!  Your performing!!  It's not like your doing an direct TV ad (like Beyonce)

you mean 2010...

and yes... it would be sick. it's a short gig... but viewed by helluva lot of people!!!!

I've always found the Super Bowl shows weird for some reason. Even Prince had a shoddy performance... IMO. And it was fucking PRINCE!!!!

I understand that.... ;)  All were doing is talking about how it would be cool.  The majority of topics on message boards are about "what if's" or "opinions"..

they are all sanitized for prime time TV.  Even the dumbest shit like changing a RS lyric or Prince's guitar looking like a phallic symbol are all criticized and scrutinized.  Hard to be rock n' roll when the FCC is watching your every move.

janet jackson's nipple really made it that much harder for other artists to just be themselves.

Anyways, I don't think Guns has the draw anymore to do the Superbowl.  CD would have to make some serious moves up the chart for that to happen, and I hope it does.

Still a lame topic.  Its amazing how one day we are talking to Axl Rose and the next day we are speculating about gay shit.  Such is life.

This happens EVERY YEAR.  Bruce is already playing the show, but it would be nice to see something related to GN'R!

       Guns n Roses in 2010 as a SuperBowl halftime show would be AWESOME. I hope it happens.  The Boss will do a good job this year.

I actually don't want this to happen.. i'd rather have them headline some big US festival or something.

If it does though it would be pretty sweet - but big TV spots like these are usually reserved for "safe" artists.

 I don't want this to happen either... the Superbowl performances always suck... even when it is good artists... The Stones had their day with the Superbowl and I could never be so disgusted... It came off horrible. I think that the reason I hate the performances is they just seem too "setup" and maybe even to much for any great band. The audio always seems crappy and off as well.  I think they are suited for pop and hip hop performers... people with dancers and that probably lip sync. I expect Bruce to have a bad performance and that be the end of the half on to quarter three of the Superbowl.

 I think by now after 20 years , Guns n Roses has became big and safe enough to play it. They had Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen play it. To me ...if they are getting artists who are great....after Bruce Springsteen  , its Axl's turn to play this Halftime show.

The show is watched by millions of people. It would cap the return that Guns n Roses has done.

 If this were to happen in the future it would make me actually want to watch the halftime show which I rarely do.   

  I think with the reputation of GNR being this dangerous band though they wouldn't want to take a chance though which is a shame because it would be one badass performance.
