[niyad]

1. Who?

[LoisB]

2. Who? Other than that Kid Rock character, I have never heard of these folks.

[durablend]

3. Gabby Barrett imagine a blender full of rocks, just worse

[biophile]

4. Right? Me, either

And I hope I never hear about them again

[LoisB]

25. Amen.

[Aristus]

12. Me either.

[hamsterjill]

28. Same here.

I was about to post the same, but you said it first!

I only know Kid Rock from the song he did with Sheryl Crow way back when.

[LoisB]

64. Actually, niyad said it first. I didn't see it before I posted my "who?".

[Dulcinea]

39. Me neither.

Are they country or pop singers? Two genres I never listen to.

[ShazzieB]

44. Same here!

When I read that, I was like Kid Rock and WHO?

[Pacifist Patriot]

50. Add me to this list. Who?

[MagickMuffin]

5. "real america's voice"

Yeah, us liberals are waiting with bated breath to see the ratings afterward.

[Initech]

7. I love how no major network is airing this garbage.

It's only right wing propaganda sites and for some reason the religious channel.

[BaronChocula]

57. The good news is

maga trash are now admitting they're the "alternative" lifestyle.

[Initech]

6. Oh yeah? I'll start my own halftime show! With blackjack and hookers.

[cloudbase]

10. Is that you, Bender?

[Initech]

23. On second thought, forget about the halftime show!

[Dave Bowman]

52. Let's kiss his shiny metal ass!

[Dulcinea]

40. You'd probably get better ratings than this crap. nt

[Initech]

43. I think this would get better ratings!

[jmowreader]

68. Are you serious? People would SO watch that!

[Torchlight]

8. I recognize one name-- the guy who brags he enjoys underage girls

and once ripped a hole in an American flag to wear as a poncho. So yeah... I can see why he'd fit their target audience. I'm presupposing the others carry around boxes of degenerate crazy just as big.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

9. Who cares?

Why would anyone want to watch these idiots?

[Initech]

24. It's hilarious that this isn't being broadcast on any major outlet.

It's only Sinclair streaming sites and the religious channel that are broadcasting this shit.

[pandr32]

11. I'm commenting just to say...

I really like the gif underneath. That reflects my reaction exactly, complete with mug of coffee.

[madinmaryland]

14. Did they forget to invite Ted Nugent??

[pandr32]

16. He's probably shitting his pants for real now.

[LoisB]

27. and that Vanilla Ice guy and Lara Trump

[ProfessorGAC]

48. Felt Exactly The Same

The post was worth viewing just for that perfect gif!

[flvegan]

13. Who, or should I say what, the fuck is this mess?

Continuation of the "Erika Kirk (not) Grieving Muh Dead Husband Tour" I assume.

[durablend]

34. PRobably like a telethon with numbers on screen throughout

"GIVE TILL IT HURTS A LIB!!!!"

[flvegan]

35. Erika doing her best Tammy Faye Bakker imitation

[bamagal62]

15. You mean they are not

Going to let Lara Trump sing?

[Ritabert]

33. Thank goodness for small favors.

[Lovie777]

17. This is so petty...............

[MorbidButterflyTat]

32. As petty as "freedom fries"?

[durablend]

18. The real question...

What happened to Nikki? Or do they not want to be seen with her?

[Klarkashton]

19. Chudfest 2026

[hibbing]

42. Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!

Only people of a certain age will get the reference, if at all.

Peace

[reACTIONary]

54. I must be of a certain age.

[Hobo]

62. AT ATCO DRAGWAY .....(NT)

[Faux pas]

20. ...

and LOLOLOLOLOLOL

[synni]

21. You mean, Scott Baio wasn't available?

He did release an album back in the 1980s, you know.

[CousinIT]

22. . . .

[RussBLib]

26. How does that work?

Are they sitting around until halftime at the football game, waiting to perform only within the parameters of the halftime?

This is just a barrel of stupid.

[3catwoman3]

29. I, unfortunately, know who Kid Rock is, but

...0 for 3.

[calimary]

41. Same here. I know that someone named Kid Rock does exist.

But those others on the bill? Never heard of ANY of them.

[Coventina]

30. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Ritabert]

31. Who?

[Conjuay]

36. Well, I've heard of 'Kid' Rock,

but it was never anything flattering.
Think he'll wash his hairs for this show?

[SheltieLover]

37. ...

[Norrrm]

38. No Lara Trump?

[relayerbob]

45. Hahahahahahahaha

There's a star-studded lineup, right there. hahahahahaha

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

46. Only their moms will watch that

[Orrex]

47. Baio, Cameron & Sorbo must be busy that day

[AverageOldGuy]

49. Televised?

Who is carrying it so I can block that channel.

[JHB]

51. A- and B-list celebs said "hard pass", so they kept going down the alphabet

What letter are they on now, G?

[Dave Bowman]

53. Ted Nugent was busy?

[wolfie001]

55. Other than Skid Rock, his fellow racist rednecks don't ring a bell

[Norbert]

56. I heard of Kid Rock but that's it

Green Day's touring musicians alone would probably put on a better show.

[2na fisherman]

58. Turning Stomach USA

...presents half time barf bags.

[QueerDuck]

67. 🤣🤪😂🤪🤣👍👍👍🍷🍷

[oasis]

59. Coalition of the Wilting

[North Coast Lawyer]

60. Not much of an alternative.

Apparently talent has a liberal bias.

[otchmoson]

61. Maybe this is the reason

the Melania ticket sales was so low . . . MAGAts were saving their bucks for the alt. Super Bowl halftime.

[tanyev]

63. Dang, no Pat Boone? That's it, I'm out.

[hatrack]

65. Barf, Who? Who? and Who?

[jmowreader]

66. Who these people are

Kid Rock you already know.

Gabby Barrett is a country singer. She was a third-place finisher on American Idol. I don't remember where I saw this one, but somebody wrote something that's way too true: "Nothing says 'rock and roll!' like winning a karaoke contest." And nothing says "country!" like coming in third in one. I went to YouTube and watched a couple of her videos. One of them sucked so bad it drew eleven inches of mercury on my vacuum gauge. The other one drew twenty-five. If I would have known about Gabby beforehand I wouldn't have had to spend $45,000 of my company's money on a new vacuum pump when the old one went out.

Lee Brice is another country singer. One of his songs is "I Drive Your Truck." Sorry guys, this isn't nearly as much fun as "I Drink Your Milkshake." "I Drive Your Truck" is about a guy who honors his brother, a soldier who died in battle, by driving his old pickup - because as everyone knows, if you don't need to down a fistful of antidepressants after listening to a country song the singer wasn't trying hard enough.

Brantley Gilbert seems to be the answer to the question, "why don't y'all have any gospel singers in your halftime show?" He has six albums in print: A Modern Day Prodigal Son, Halfway to Heaven, Just As I Am, The Devil Don't Sleep, Fire and Brimstone, and So Help Me God.

My recommendation is to put the Charliefest on your computer screen but mute the audio, then put a copy of Ghost's "Ceremony and Devotion" on your CD player and crank it the fuck up. (If you've never heard it, every song on that album is satanic and they're not even slightly subtle about it.)

Yeah...I'll be watchin' Bad Bunny. And since it'll probably take them until Saturday to plow out Bowman Gray Stadium to the point they can run the Clash and the Seahawks are going to stomp the Patriots worse than they stomped the Broncos in Super Bowl 48, it's going to be an awesome sports weekend.
