Superbowl Springsteen

[18Alex18]

Just wondering how many people intend to watch the Boss at half time at the Superbowl this evening or are at least recording it?

He's only going to have time for about 4 songs so it'll be the perfect chance for any doubters to see him doing some of his real highlight songs.

I assume a lot of Springsteen fans will be watching (my dad hates american football but he's already sky+ed it) but how many people will give Springsteen a chance tonight?

[spuddy09]

Im watching as I type.Might be asleep by then.

[18Alex18]

Yer that's the problem with it being on so late.

Oh well, I actually want to watch the game as well so I'm not too bothered.

Anyone got any guesses on what songs he'll do?

[darrenbha]

I'll be watching. No idea what songs he'll go for. Reckon queen of the supermarket may get a look in

[Originalshez]

I reckon

10th Avenue Freeze out

Working On A Dream

Born To Run

And Glory Days if he has time for a 4th.

[18Alex18]

I'm thinking Born to Run, Working on a Dream, Born in the USA and then maybe something like Radio Nowhere which was fairly commercially successful or maybe something a bit slower like the River.

[18Alex18]

Ahh yes, 10th Avenue would be great. I've changed my mind, I think he'll probably do that.

Not quite watching it for Bruce I must say

[laid back in the sun]

dear god! american football and bruce springsteen?? early night for me then

[18Alex18]

Are a lot of people watching the actual game through enjoyment/curiosity then?

[darrenbha]

Me neither but a curious observer for that.

[darrenbha]

I always watch the superbowl. Just added curiosity as always wanted to see springsteen and looking forward to his set at Glasto

[themuel]

What time will he be on?

[18Alex18]

It's very variable, but you could be looking at around 12:45.

[darrenbha]

I was gonna say between 1245 and 115

[18Alex18]

I was gonna say between 1245 and 115

[Alcatraz]

Sounds about right.

Let's just say, they've played 9 minutes of game time in 20 minutes of real time and a half is 30 minutes of game time and then you've got timeouts, breaks between quarters and the 2 minute warning. So optimisticly, 12:45, but more than likely it'll be later.

[18Alex18]

and lots and lots of touchdowns we're hoping

[Alcatraz]

Exactly!

Does anyone have any preference over who they want to see win?

Or even better, any fans of either team?

[darrenbha]

Pretty neutral here. Expecting it to be steelers but would love to see the cardinals do it as underdogs

[18Alex18]

Would prefer to see the Cardinals win, but I have massive respect for the Steelers. So either way I'll be happy for a good game.

Nice recovery play by Big Ben just now

[Originalshez]

Thats my build, I could do that

That Ben Roethilsburger looks a cracking player.

[Alcatraz]

I'm a big Colts fan, so you'd sort of think I wouldn't want the Steelers to win, but, I just want them to prove that the AFC>NFC. Especially after the Patriots bottled it last year (but damn I hate those Patriots).

How can he be that mobile at 6'5 and 17 stone?
