Half Time Show.

Really? I would wager that 10 times more people know Neil Young's music than know Green Day's music. What rock have you been living under?
I didn't say Green Day would be good for the Super Bowl haltime show, read again. I'm a fan of Neil Young, Cortez the Killer being my favorite. He wouldn't be good for the Super Bowl halftime either.

The problem would be a lot of Neil's Stuff is either too political, or too long (don't need no damn controversy @ the SB) . Ohio for starters. Hmmm what could he play? Mr Soul? OK. Like a Hurricane? Great song, way too long. Ditto on your pick of Cortez the Killer. My my (into the Black)- political. Cowgirl in the Sand is too long and too mellow. Emperor of Wyoming would appeal to the C&W crowd. Rocking in the Free World is again political. F**k'in Up is a great song, it would get nixed by the Politically correct censors.

and nobody can fuck with JOE:
actually, and not to be a smartass, but there's a few folks that can.
Tom Morello Blows Springsteen off the forking stage. Geezeze Louise where the hell have you been hiding all these years?
Steve Vai ain't 1\2 bad, and neither is his bass player or Robert Cray.

I think you messed up your link- if you meant Doyle Bramhall, yeah, that's damn impressive. As a left handed guitarist myself, Doyle flipped a right handed guitar upside down and played it ass-backwards in this song.It's incredibly hard to do, much less do well. (And Ghoolie, don't go giving me shit that it's only E tuned.)

I think she did a fine job. It was well produced, well executed and who cares if there is some lip sync going on?
As much as I love paul, the vocal processing was embarrassing and that was in preproduction.
Take a look at the youtube from 2 years ago annual see the camera is position as to where you can not see the mouth at any time.
Madonna, love her ir hate her, certainly has had a string ok well written and well produced hits.

All true. Most of his mainstream stuff is too political, sans Old Man, Cinnamon Girl, and Heart of Gold. I just don't see Cinnamon Girl being played at the SuperBowl half time show.

He could perform Southern Man at a show in New Orleans, and ask Lynyrd Skynyrd to be his backup band.
Or do down by the River, and be charged with domestic violence..

Again, its you guys turning it into personal preference. All I'm saying is green day is more likely to do a halftime show than many of gippers picks. Not that green day is better. Also the rock and roll hall of fame is a lot of bullshit.
Well the R&R HOF is a lot less BS than the Grammys- Milli Vanilli anyone?
Problem is- you sell enough CDs\downloads you become mainstream. Hell, I've been looking for the next Hendrix for 40 years. Stevie Ray Vaughn came close. Guys like Maumstein, McGlauglin, Steve Vai, and Tom Morello get about zero airplay mainstream- so blame the damn commercial radio stations for that lapse.
Really guys- I DON'T need to hear "Stairway to Heaven" for the 10,000th time. Can we hear the old guys new stuff for a change?

Rock and roll is dead, and the R&R HOF is a joke, Madonna and the Beastie Boys get inducted before Rush? The only guitarist worth his salt that gets airtime nowadays is John Mayer, and he sure as hell ain't popular for his technical skill.

Almost no 1 among the most famous rock and roll stars are known for their technical prowess.
You'd be lucky to think of a small few hit songs with masterfully played parts.
That's 1 of the things that makes it rock and roll in the first place.

Comfortably Numb, Tom Sawyer, Layla, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Barracuda? Would these songs be nearly as great without their respective solos? I don't think so. I think to be a good artist, you have to be either good at making catchy riffs or you can play the hell out of your instruments. If you want to be a great artist, in my opinion, you've gotta have both. I realize this doesn't always coincide with popularity. But what's Queen without Brian May? Billy Idol without Steve Stevens? Most people probably don't have any idea who those people are, though.

Steve Stevens is awesome.

Steve Stevens did the fucking Top Gun Anthem. I think he is among the most underrated guitarists.

Yes, Because Rush sucks and doesn't belong. Madonna and the Beastie Boys do. As far as I am concerned, keeping Rush out only brings credibility to the RRHOF.
No guitarist is popular for his technical skill per se. If they were, Glass Harp with Phil Keaggy would have been the world's most popular act. In the opinion of the likes of Clapton and Townshend they believed that Keaggy and Jimi Hendrix were the two best guitarists on the planet.

Lol. Right gipper rush sucks. Jimi hendrix apparently thought Glenn schwartz was up there, among the best, but Glenn Schwartz is a crazy person who lives in a van down by the river.

i saw steve vai when he played lead for the david lee roth band when they did that yankee rose tour. needless to say he was the best thing going for that show...and they opened up for poison...aaarrrfff!
also listen to some of his earlier stuff with zappa. brilliant! wasn't he satriani's guitar teacher or was it vice versa?

I believe satriani taught vai, but I could be incorrect
