SUPER BOWL SUNDAY

[gnrkid03]

I had a crazy dream that Axl and the boys played at the Superbowl.  Madagascar was the song and when the whole sample thing happened in the song, the MLK "I have a dream, free at last" part didnt play.  It ended on a stained glass picture of Jesus.  The place was going crazy and the new band member was there playing too.  Thought Id just share that with you all since theres speculation about them playing this Sunday.

Your dream this night and superbowl on 6th... Coincidence ? 

[WARose]

Maybe this is a sign.

Great to see that this kind of information is all we have relating to GN'R these days. People's dreams. Yawn.

There will be no surprise appearence from GNR on Superbowl Sunday. The NFL is under fire for last year and they are sure to be conservitave this year. And GNR is not conservitive which is a good thing. I would not rule out a commercial though especially with the new publishing deal.

[Axl4Prez2004]

While I don't see GNR throwing down $2.4 million for a 30 second advertisement during the Super Bowl...or a live performance due to the NFL's experience last year with Janet Jackson...I DO think tomorrow, Monday, January 31st, would be a PERFECT time for an announcement done in press release form giving new info.  WHY?  Because by the time Super Bowl Sunday comes around, word will have spread, and since the Super Bowl is a huge party event, you can multiply the buzz exponentially.  I sure hope Uncle Axl is thinking like I am!

just a rumor so no one get fired up or anything but over at the paul mccartney boards he is rumored to be closing with "live and let die"

so just take that as a rumor


i wasnt gonna post that cause we know axl isnt gonna perform but if he does close with it, it kind of makes u wonder.

can u imagine axl's 30 second screams like he did on the 2002 tour?
everyone would be in awe!

Although I don't believe Axl will be performing Sunday, I can't say I won't be watching the half time show just in case.

I will say that I find it a bit strange that Paul McCartney is billed as playing solo (meaning without additional acts within his performance). If you look at the history of the SuperBowl half time shows ( http://www.superbowl.com/features/entertainment/halftime-honorroll ), very few in the past two decades have featured only one act. This doesn't mean to say that AXL WILL be an unannounced guest performer, but it seems rational that there might very possibly be some kind of surprise during the performance.

As far as the whole "conservative" issue goes...I'm sure the NFL (maybe someone else) collects a nice chunk of change from those who produce the half time shows (Radio City, Disney, MTV, etc.) and I'm sure they don't want to all of a sudden go soft and turn the half time show back into a boring piece of trash (notice I say 'boring' as it's still a piece of trash even when it's exciting) that nobody wants to produce anymore. And if the rumor of Live N' Let Die ending the set is true, I don't see how bringing Axl on as a guest for one song would be concidered much of a gamble. He is certainly not (really never was) the 'out of control' rock star (sans a few minor riots lol) in terms of not playing ball with a live television event (it's Slash and Duff you need to look out for with that).

All in all, I think this topic is fun, but as cool of an idea as it is, I really don't think it's gonna happen. 

Perhaps there's something BIGGER up their sleaves...and if not, hey...the Grammy's are on in two weeks

Mygnrforum:

This is a rumour from Paul McCartney's official message board:

Looks like he's ending with "live and let die".....they're doing a local spot about the superbowl right now, and they said Paul was rehearsing. They could hear (didn't say what he was playing), but they saw the fireworks at the end.

McCartney's set is 12 minutes and is the only scheduled perfomer...

[Malcolm]

No theres more people confirmed,Gretchen Wilson,Tim Mcgraw and more i belive

[gigger]

No theres more people confirmed,Gretchen Wilson,Tim Mcgraw and more i belive

That's the pregame show.

McCartney is the only scheduled Half Time performer.

[mitchejw]

oh great, gretchen wilson...now there's a flash in the pan...i hardly even know of her because she sings country and country is only marketable in certain parts of the country...time mcgraw...yeee hawww

I can't understand why they would put someone so specialized in a niche on such a spot light.

"Super Bowl will be first time in history transmitted to China."

The Superbowl was broadcast nationally last year in the PRC.

Hasnt Axl written a tribute song for John Lennon

Hasnt Axl written a tribute song for John Lennon?

CITR ? Haha... would be great but forget it!! 

[Lady Livin]

I was watching a little bit of Fox News earlier and the anchor at the moment was talking about the halftime show and it went to a conference with McCartney. He was asked what songs he was planning on performing, but didn't name anything. He just said he was going to take the band out and "rock," and that he didn't want to spoil any surprises.
