I think what it comes down to is that there's different types and levels of showmanship. While the "performance art" of GWAR definitely has it's niche (back when Slymenstra was in the band that fire dance of hers was killer!), in a venue like the SuperBowl, the idea is to pick a performer that will appeal to the widest audience, including children. If you had your hopes on a Nailbomb reunion show or a GG Allin tribute band, it ain't gonna happen. Prince has been making music since the late 70's and has released thousands of songs since then. He also recently released a record which makes him somewhat current. That makes him a logical choice, IMO. Is he kinda girly? Sure, but that's the performer image that made him famous and what he's known for. Guitar impalement is almost always cool, but probably not his style
