Piercing Ken Thoughts: Now before I get too deeply into this news, I want to share that the information up above was culled from the Official NFL Website in their “News” Section. As a content creator, I should admit that while most things sports in nature are of little interest to me, the announcement of the Super Bowl Halftime guest will almost always bring in some solid website traffic. Sure I love that my site entertains and informs you on a regular basis but at the end of the day I am seeking Google dominance and lots of site vi and s and shares of the articles. So now onto this news. Though its nice to see a Pop Rock like Maroon 5 making the cut as the featured Super Bowl artist, the genre of Rock is mostly distant these days from such a show and for me, the band Maroon 5 does not rock at all. When you listen to the kinds of groups that I focus on over on the PiercingMetal site, its not hard to find a band like this one to be excruciatingly boring. Yes they make hits but I can’t listen to them and I apologize to any of our readers that might find this revelation to be off-putting. We all like what we like and though I plan on tuning into the Big Game at some point during its airing, I don’t see myself sitting still absorbing this upcoming Halftime Show. If you’re someone that enjoys them, then I hope its a magical visual for you. I’ll likely be in my kitchen assembling more snacks or having a couple of cold beers with anyone that I am watching the game with. Wrapping up I feel its pretty safe to say that we won’t be finding any Metal bands doing the Halftime Show and that’s a shame based on just how many exciting bands there are out there. Going forward I will likely be featuring this kind of a notice for each Superbowl because why not. I’ve already said that we are out to build web-traffic and reach up and this kind of news is highly searched. Talk to you soon my friends, until the next time and oh yeah please chime in down below with what you think about this news. Cheers.
