I didn't bash them for appearing. I just don't think their performance was
very moving or inspired. The only one who moves around is Bono. Edge is too
good to put on a show? He just stands there. I know it was a tough thing
with an artificial crowd and only 2 songs, but there is no comparison between
the who at CFNY and U2 at superbowl. The Who will be far more remembered for
CFNY than U2 for superbowl
