Elvis Presley never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
The Beatles never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Donna Summer never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Stevie Wonder never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
The Bee Gees never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Blondie never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Rush never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Chicago never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Kansas never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Asia never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Earth Wind and Fire never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Journey never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Foreigner never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
The Fifth Dimension never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
Neil Sedaka never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
And, worst of all,
Frank Sinatra never got a Super Bowl halftime show.
I know Stevie Wonder played a halftime show with Gloria Estafan. Don't know what year, but they were both old.
I was a huge fan of both those acts. If they had played together in the late 80's my head would have melted. I saw Stevie live but never Gloria. A friend of mine got a degree in music from University of Miami in the mid 80's. He was good friends with Mike Scaglione who was the sax player for Miami Sound Machine. I saw Scags play in another band full of UM guys I never heard of and they were blistering hot.
