The Who To Play Superbowl

By Tim Cashmere

The Who are going to step up to the plate and be the next Rolling Stones, Prince or Bruce Springsteen and provide the halftime entertainment at The Superbowl.

According to a report in Sports Illustrated, the band are tipped to be the halftime show - a “source” tells them.

The Superbowl is considered a prestigious show to be invited to, and will guarantee a TV audience of millions all over the world. Advertisers have been known to pay over $US2million for a thirty second commercial.

The NFL are yet to confirm the spot, bluntly saying "When we have something to announce, we'll announce it."

Let’s just hope Pete Townsend doesn’t have a “wardrobe malfunction” while millions of people are inadvertently looking in his general direction.
