I never was a big fan of the who. I knew a lot of people who were. Now Led Zeppelin, that's a different story. I think they disbanded awhile ago though.

I did so much sinning when I listened to Led Zeppelin that I almost feel like I am sinning when I hear them again. They are perhaps my favorite of all classic rock bands. They disbanded when their drummer died. Robert Plant and Jimmy Page put out some good music during the '80s.
Now Eric Clapton would make a class act for the Super Bowel.

What about Pink? She can do her trapeze act while she sings, or Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Taylor Swift?

Super Bowl wants old acts. They don't want to risk any wardrobe malfunctions.

Yeah, I know, one wardrobe malfunction and we have the old acts; so when the EMT's have to rush the stage then we will get the young acts back again.

The Who fits the demographics of those who actually PAY to go to the Super Bowl. The people who pay to see Pink, or Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga or Beyonce are teens and young adults who do not have the income to afford a trip and a ticket to the Super Bowl.

Quite a few young, yuppie types attend the super bowl. The Who played half time because they are The Who, ongoing fallout from the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction, CBS had the superbowl this year, cbs is the network of CSI, & CSI features The Who's music. Don't think for a second that cbs execs did not factor all of that into their decision.

Just for fun:

Super Bowl Fan Demographics
Average household income: 28% earn $100,000+ 63% earn $50,000+ 64% male / 36% female 35% are ages 45 to 64 21% are ages 35 to 44 17% are ages 25 to 34 15% are ages 65 and older 10% are ages 18 to 24

But now that you mentioned it, I think you might be right. pk
