Not to get political again… this is exciting for a variety of reasons. I can’t help but remember Kendrick’s halftime performance last year. That was not only a strong performance but a message to the audience, a warning to our country and a very well spoken nod to our history. Green day is interesting to me, as a punk rock band that got so incredibly popular that even audiences with drastically different political views find themselves in the car with a radical leftist niece singing along to American idiot on the radio. (Ironic. I digress.) I can only dream that I can watch Billy Joe Armstrong pull out a certain rubber mask of a certain someone to start off the Superbowl. It’s very interesting to see how political the Superbowl performances are currently, (hey, it’s just an assumption in 2026, but it’s Green Day come on) I just hope that their band really makes a statement since they have so much of the public looking to them, instead of being our bread and circus.
