This is not the proper forum section to have a global political debate. Go to the Gear Free Zone and critisize the greatest free
country in the world (USA) there.

Peace

It was a waste of valuable US military resources at a time when our soliders are fighting -- and dying -- in a foreign land, at times, no doubt, for want of air support... such a display is a waste and a disgrace. But that's neither here nor there. I think Julian was talking about style and symbol here and that seems on topic in a comment about an entertainment spectacle.

Honestly, they may have also been on duty to make sure nobody flew a plane into the football stadium.

Yup. An American event viewed by a billion people. Just a slightly high profile terrorist target...

Uh... yeah. Sure.

Were they flying overhead for the whole game, then?


This is more "Mission Accomplished" bull feathers, seems to me. And now that we're back in the Moan Zone, I don't mind saying it.

No, they had a changing of the guard to the Budweiser Blimp.

Touché!





I think I see a new product niche... blimps that combine the regular camera and advertising platform (who really cares about the camera, of course) with the very 21st century role of barrage balloon.

The All-New Goodyear Blimp... on guard to protect America's precious football stadium resources. We can't protect the harbors. We can't protect the nuclear power plants but -- by gum -- we're gonna protect those football stadiums...

Hey - whatever happened to that "let's be jerks" thread? That was fun!

[DaveC]

Didn't read through the whole thread, but I saw the first post;
Who in the hell puts an autotune on a singer like Billy Joel, LIVE??!#*&!?
Why are such engineers (not even worth the title) hired
to suck the living hell out of such talents?
This is the consequence of letting major untalented 'artists' like Spears
and the Simpson-sisters 'sing' at such big events and f*ck it up big time!
So they hire (what I suspect) a very young engineer, not because he
has a skill, but because he's someone's f*cking nephew or something like that,
and his father is doing his father a favour, for example, and this so-called engineer knows dick
about guys like Billy Joel, because he's too young to remember.So it's
not the engineer's fault (if it would be a 20 year old).
This story is always repeating itself for decades...
I mean, I'm not really a Celine Dion-fan, but she sings ON KEY!
Same goes for Billy Joel, everyone knows that you sign your own death-warrant,
if you put an autotune on such vocals.
A week ago, I started a thread about Harry Nilsson.
Imagine that they put an autotune on his voice, in other words, kill all the imaginable emotions that are present in his voice...singing LIVE...
So realize that there are amatures everywhere, even at the Superbowl...worthless...

That felt good...enough ranting for today

zboy,

How dare you make a logical, rational point. thumbsup
You know that's not allowed here. Go with the crowd man or you'll be fed to the lions.
