IS SOMEONE GETTING THE BEST, THE BEST, THE BEST, THE BEST OF YOU? Now that U2, Macca, The Rolling Stones, Prince, Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen have done the Super Bowl halftime show in this recent era of "let's just have one performer," who's next?

The shortlist probably stars with Garth Brooks, and also likely includes Cougar, Buffett, Kanye (what other hip hop performer -- Jigga?), Big &/or Rich, Kenny Chesney, is-Metallica-too-heavy?, if-they-ever-reunited Van Halen, The Pogues, the Hold Steady (eventually) ... who else? I recognize that I haven't named a single female performer, but who these days is popular enough and "stadium" enough? Would Carrie Underwood or Sugarland be overwhelmed by that kind of backdrop?
