I don't think any band/group/singer SHOULD play the Superbowl. Unless you're really highly talented and used to playing huge arenas (Prince and U2) you're going to suck.
Metallica or Kiss WOULD be a natural choice though

Foo Fighters are pretty much perfect for this. Inoffensive slightly mainstream Rock that will pump up a crowd, start a sing-a-long and provide the energy to keep the momentum of the experience going. Plus, since it is the Halftime Show, I'd like to think there exists the possibility of Lemmy showing up to jam on "Shake Your Blood". THAT...would be amazing. That would be the greatest thing ever. However, the amount of awesomeness given off by the show would cause the stadium to implode. But we can dream. |

On the list so far that I agree with...
Foo Fighters
KISS
Muse
Rush
Spinal Tap
Ones I'd like to see...
Slash (for the whole show, not a cameo)
AC/DC
Queen (if they time it right, there'll be a tribute show when the movie comes out)
Red Hot Chilli Peppers

KISS, they need to do a halftime show sometime. They did play the opening ceremony of Superbowl 1999 but i would like to see them do the half time show knowing Kiss they would bring enough pyro to destroy a small country  |

Have Pearl Jam ever played it? They would be ideal.

Metallica or AC/DC would be awesome...and pretty realistic choices. I could imagine either one of them doing a half time show...and it would be the first time I ever watched Super Bowl!

I think even Bon Jovi would work when the Super Bowl goes to East Rutherford, New Jersey

Realistically, there are only a handful of acts that would fit the NFL's current mold for an acceptable Super Bowl halftime act. After the Janet Jackson-Justin Timberlake incident at Super Bowl XXXVIII, there will never again be a sexually suggestive act, and the stage of halftime at the Super Bowl has become so significant that the only acts that can play need to be huge worldwide acts that sell out any arena or stadium that they perform at.
Here's the list of realistic candidates for Super Bowl XLVI and beyond, in no particular order:
- Bon Jovi
- Aerosmith
- Coldplay
- Green Day
- Dave Matthews Band
- Beyonce
- Taylor Swift
- Billy Joel
- Garth Brooks
- U2 (they would definitely be welcomed back after their performance at XXXVI)
- Led Zeppelin (this would be intriguing to see if the NFL could convince Jones, Page and Plant to reunite for one last performance, maybe at Super Bowl 50)
Really, I think that's about it. Not to be arrogant and belittle any suggestions that have already been made that I did not list, but I just don't see anyone outside of that group of 11 playing at halftime of the Super Bowl in the near future. There are just so many variables at play in suggesting a halftime performer for the Super Bowl, that the NFL is going to play it safe for a long time.
