The Weekend

I can honestly say I had no idea who the halftime show was, I had heard the name, but thought it was a band...so, “don’t know, don’t care”. Quit watching halftime years ago. 

" dill I find your repeated post obviously racist."

Not racist, just accurate. I thought I'd correct you on that. Does that sting?

RE: the Weeknd, I had no idea what the songs or lyrics were at halftime but yesterday my 4 year old grandson asked Siri to play Weeknd, and my daughter really likes him. It's a generational thing - us oldsters just aren't tuned into todays music. I guess they don't need bands, just choreography and backing tracks. I'll take Lyle Lovett's Large band anyday. 

I dunno, the way the Weeknd sounds phonically reproduced as the weakened. Maybe it's just me, I thought he was pretty good. Now, not as good as GaGa was, but then again, really don't care for her much either.  AB

Wow, I feel sorry for the kids that lived in most of your households. I am in my 50's, but I could easily sing along to most songs by The Weeknd. There is a reason why he gets a billion+ views on Youtube.  Songs are uber catchy, have a great beat, and he has a half decent voice.  I was a very late baby at the time, my parents were almost 40 years older than I am, but we always had a big cross section of music playing in the house.   I know my kids would listen to the Weeknd, but they know Who, Stones, and Depeche mode too. Maybe this fuels that argument that audiophiles use music to listen to their equipment and not their equipment to listen to music.


And ya, dill, I am sure your motivations were innocent. Not.
