When it comes to the big game, we're here for halftime. Get the dirt on Maroon 5 and the LII acts that came before them.
Last week at the Observatory in Santa Ana, California, the rock and metal community came together for the annual Dimebash celebration, a tribute to late Pantera and Damageplan guitarist Dimebag Darrell Abbott. A legend who we lost too soon on December 8th, 2004.
To celebrate this great man, some of the best in the metal world stepped to the stage to pay tribute. The night featured full sets from Kill Devil Hill and Fireball Ministry, alongside an all-star jam playing a selection of Dimebag’s most well-known tracks.
Possibly the biggest thing people are talking about, is the recent footage that emerged with Dimebag’s Pantera bandmate Rex Brown, along with Corey Taylor, Dave Grohl, Scott Ian and Charlie Benante, playing through the Pantera classic “Walk."
The only negative thing I can say about this performance is that… I was not there to enjoy it live!
Cardi B might have turned down a Super Bowl LIII halftime appearance with Maroon 5, but she’s still going to show up during the big game, thanks to an appearance in a Pepsi commercial.
As the GMA hosts point out, Pepsi has always been known to grab big name stars for their big game ads, and this year they’ve got at least 3 – Cardi B features alongside Steve Carrell & there’s definitely a lil bit of Lil Jon in there too.
