Posts Tagged ‘Bruce Springsteen’

The Super Bowl brings forth a bonanza of prop betting each year, and a lot of it has to do with the halftime entertainment.

Last year, a lot of the oddsmakers’ attention was focused on what four songs Bruce Springsteen would be playing during his halftime performance.  Bets were even placed on whether Clarence Clemons would have a featured sax solo or if Bruce would reach into the crowd and pull Courteney Cox onstage, a la the “Dancing in the Dark” music video.

Well, a lot of that betting suspense was removed this time around when this year’s halftime performers, The Who, told Billboard exactly what they’d be playing.

According to Pete Townshend, the band will play a “compact medley” of the following songs:

  • Baba O’Riley
  • Pinball Wizard
  • the close of Tommy
  • Who Are You
  • Won’t Get Fooled Again

That’s a solid set list, but it’s a bit surprising not to see “My Generation” on there.  In any case, it’s shaping up to be a pretty good halftime show.  Catch it during the Super Bowl on February 7th on CBS.
