Turning Point USA’s fake halftime show isn’t a culture war flex — it’s a dad-rock karaoke night that proves MAGA can’t compete with Bad Bunny or reality.
When will I ever learn not to read VMB when I’m eating?
Just began eating dinner & started reading this. Just seeing the word CREED triggered projectile vomiting (which I, thank you baby Jesus, was able to abort). I had to play that band over & over my last days working in radio & yes, to each his own but….the whole story itself is just so EMBARRASSING, sad & stupid. Nickelback & Papa Roach? Really? Is this a dream? Because of a language difference with an incredibly talented half-time show star???Hanging my head in shame as i plunge forward…& almost spit my food across the room laughing picturing Kid Rock barfing into a MAGA hat 🤣. (Probably not the first time)
One more thing……i bet your goldfish DOES have a better chance at winning “Dancing with the Stars” than this half-time MAGA thing being watched more than the Super Bowl. 🐠 Dance, Goldie!
We met Lee Greenwood (against our will) when hubs and I were doing the publicity circuit in trucking (which is a lot like being a famous carrier pigeon - no one cares about anything other than the delivery, chicken be damned.) He was just as un-charming as his silly song and very difficult to locate in a room of full-grown adults. Had he not been wearing his tiny red hat we might have overlooked him entirely.
If Duane Eddy’s ghost shows up, at least we’ll get one clean note before the seven trumpets of cringe sound. The rest will be country-rap revelations played through a QAnon amp.

You painted the whole circus—Kid Rock baptizing his hat, CREED echoing from hell’s karaoke lounge, and Goldie rehearsing for her mirrorball moment.
You didn’t just read the post. You choreographed it.
I’ll stick with emotionally relevant performers like Sarah McLachlan, Calum Scott, Ed Sheeran, thank you. Esp Calum since he is gay.
"garage band for the apocalypse"
damn good line
Buen dia, Bad Bunny, nosotras te queremos mucho!🎶
Sounds like another serious threat🥱

That image is priceless. Lee Greenwood wandering around like a MAGA garden gnome at a truck stop buffet.
“Proud to Be an American” really hits different when you’ve met the man and realize even his charisma needed a CB handle and a map.
Blessed be the ones who survive the publicity circuit and live to roast about it.
I like nickel ack and creed!
Very funny 😁 and very spot the hell on VMB. I’ll not miss another of your blogs.
Thanks! 🙏
Glad to have you tuning in, Rob
If Nickelback actually do this I'll be having a bonfire of vynil. It's sickening. Maybe the ghost of Duane Eddy will do a session. Jeez.

I guess the piano players won't touch any of the black keys.
Exactly. It'll be twelve bars of pure supremacy in the key of delusion. Even the angels will be begging for jazz.
Are there advertisers / sponsors?
Only if Axe Body Spray and Monster Energy decide to merge with Hobby Lobby.
VMB: 👏 , luv it
