Bob Dylan has replaced Beyoncé as the Super Bowl halftime performer—or at least Tim Heidecker says he has. According to the ex-Rolling Stone editor and Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! star, the folk warbler has replaced the pop star after her inauguration lip synching scandal left the country—and sponsor Pepsi—so shocked and saddened that the only cure was a notoriously eccentric 71-year-old.

Reminding the world that nothing screams contact sports like an old man in a floppy bow tie, Dylan even (supposedly) dropped a new single around the announcement. “Running Out The Clock” was (allegedly) recorded around the time of Dylan’s Infidels album in 1983, but hasn’t been released until now. Thank heaven the singer had this song chock full of football metaphors just sitting around, gathering dust on an archives shelf somewhere. Here’s hoping he’s got a bunch of old dance moves in storage, too.

I can't stand Beyonce but Bob Dylan? JFC HOpe this rumor is not true.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeverybody MUST GET STONED!

Awesome

one of these things is not like the other...

He can mumble out a tune with the best of them

He's no Eddie Money

LMAO

She just did a big pr thing in front of the media today.

Maybe we can have a halftime without all the dipshit dancers in the audience for a change

LMAO

Sounds like an Onion article

This is what I'm hoping. Or maybe he is going to join her at some point on stage and this idiot has it all wrong.

yep. Lets look at this at halftime instead of listen to someone mumble.

It's horrible.

Quoted...for...um...yeah.

Did the crabs come out of the bayou and eat Madona?

Anyone under 60 years of age just went WHO???????????????????

Yup.

Hence why I posted it as RUMOR just in case.

Superbowl halftime shows suck, outside of Prince. This won't be any different.

Tim Heidecker should never be relied upon for credible news. This is 100% fake.

She calls her hoo-hah "The Bayou"? Appropriate.

Lesser of two evils, I'll take it.

I love the Onion.

I always knew you were gay.

Too afraid to sing live, maybe?

I might be. I got a girl begging me to **** her and I just don't care.

I would prefer Bob Dylan over Beyonce. Bob has written and sung some of the worst songs ever performed, but he has also written and sung some of the best songs ever performed.

Tweeter & the monkey man rocks
Sec

Who cares?

They should just abolish these crapshows at halftime. I realize they put them on to generate interest from women, but they're terrible.

It's very important. Is it going to be somebody worth hearing like Springsteen or Dylan, or is it going to be somebody vanilla and boring like Beyonce, or is it going to be someone offensively untalented like any rap artist or those little gunshot kids.

Known for his songwriting and definitely not about his pipes.:rolleyes:

How does it FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL ????

I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.

this is announced right after Beyonce's press conference that was on NFL network today? riiiiight.

no idea man. Just posting what popped up earlier. RUMOR only.

That's not Bob Dylan.

Ain't happenin"

Will never happen.

Beyonce was in NOLA today doing a preview.

I dunno, Tim Heidecker is usually a pretty reliable source of breaking news. He was even the Editor-in-Chief at Rolling Stone for a little while last year, so I think he might have the inside track on this kind of story.

It will be interesting, if it is true, why it happened.

Whoever it is, I hope its a disaster. The more times the halftime show flops, the greater the chance that it will just go away.

Not a Beyonce fan.

I hope she lip syncs it again and ****s it up ala Ashlee Simpson.

Then the crowd will boo and Jay Z will pull out his 9 and start to pop caps in everyone's ass.

Now THAT would be a halftime show and perfectly befitting a farewell for Ray Ray Lewis.

:clap:

Agreed. It's gonna suck either way. Why not get someone who rocks for once? Get ****in Metallica or Maiden or Judas Priest. Something. Or if thats too much for them, how about Roger Waters or somethin

SPAGETT

You seem very "hip" and "in the know"

P.S. plz post more HOTTT chixxx pixxx 4 me 2 jerk 2

now think about your dad
I wanna meet that dad

Ya blew it.

I'm never gonna wipe my butt.

Guru... ya gullible bastard.

Have you even read my posts? RUMOR

Actually Dude, it's a parody. The guy is a comedian.

But hey, don't sweat it.

You're gullible.

:D

At least it's something different, I'm tired of these geriatric bands getting up on stage year after year. You want to get a band, get Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, get a band that can actually connect with today's audience instead of bore them to death. The only halftime show that was worth a damn of recent memory was Bruce Springsteen. Before that I can't even remember the last one I enjoyed.

The Foo Fighters are no longer a band. The Red Hot Chili Peppers no longer have Frusciante, so they're not much more than a cover band.

Furthermore, it's a near impossibility that a stage with ****ing 400 cables can be wheeled out at a venue with everything working perfectly. If there's an audio delay of 5ms, everyone in TV land can hear it.

That's why the Super Bowl is canned and has been, even back to Tom Petty.

If you want to have a fully live band, like on concert series or 12.12.12, the band has to be at a completely different venue.

Period.

I saw RHCP in Sprint Center last year, trust me, they kick ass without Frusciante. At least I'm throwing out ideas, not just relying on old farts who nobody wants to see.

Hmmm...Beyonce or Dillon?

Tough choice. :doh!:

I kissed my sis, on the lips

I think i'd rather have beyonce.. ...

Another old washed up performance at the SB?

snore...

I usually so drunk by this time in the day....I could give a shit about the HT show, I can't remember the last time the HT performance was good? Some said Prince's was good. I can't remember.

You've got to be pretty dang gullible to, never mind believe it, but to even go as far as to say "this is a rumor, gosh I hope its not true"

Its obviously not true. No one was "shocked and saddened" by her lip-synching at the inaugural. If this were to, in some bizarre alternate universe, happen, we'd have groups screaming racism and protesting the NFL.

the best half time show in a decade was Prince.

and I'm not even a huge prince fan / didn't expect to even watch halftime.

it was awesome IMO

Bono should be up next in the shitty music /overrated halftime performer rotation.

People actually watch the halftime show?
I take that opportunity to step out back and hit the "wisdom shed" for some fresh air. :bong:

Most singers lip sync, what's the big deal?

heh

Halftime show? Hell, I can hardly bring myself to watch the Super Bowl at all. It's such a damn circus.

More people watched the halftime show last year than the actual game. It's a huge moneymaker. It ain't going anywhere.

I was cool with Springsteen, he had energy to spare... but yep, i've yet to enjoy a halftime show as much as i did Prince, he's got something for just about all tastes, he can do soul and he can rip a rock riff like nobodys business.

the Purple Rain deal coudn't have been any better. it was just awesome.

Uh, no

Just show the commercials.

I couldn't ****ing care less.

Even if they DON'T lip sync, it's a ****ing medley of hits with 30-second excerpts from a dozen songs.

I have ADD and even I think it's worthless.

Today I learned that not only do people watch the halftime show, but they actually care about who is performing in it.

LMAO

Heh, for me it just depends who's playing... Springsteen, Prince, i'm watching... Beyonce not so much, not really my bag.

I'll probably join Poz out in the garage...

I love Beyonce. I'm looking forward to it. I have high expectations.

Heidecker also reporting that Cinco has purchased commercial time for the Poop Tube during the Super Bowl.

LMAO

I like how your idea of a fresh new band is Red Hot Chili Peppers or Foo Fighters. Maybe we could bring in those hip young kids from Smashing Pumpkins, too.
