The Who rocked the Super Bowl halftime show in Miami on Sunday, treating a packed Sun Life Stadium to a medley of their greatest hits.

Backed by drummer Zak Starkey and bassist Pino Palladino - in addition to keyboard player John "Rabbit" Bundrick and Simon Townshend on guitar - surviving original members Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey kicked off the performance with a quick take on "Pinball Wizard" before ripping through "Baba O'Riley."

The group tore through their blistering set surrounded by an elaborate light show featuring green lasers, flashing strobe lights and fireworks. The Who also played brief versions of "Who Are You" and "See Me, Feel Me," before launching into their 1971 anthem, "Won't Get Fooled Again."

Despite the energetic performance, Daltrey was a bit disappointed with the outcome.

"It didn't even feel like a concert," he told ESPN. "It's a television show. And what can you do in 12 minutes?"

"I thought it went OK," Daltrey added. "I understand. It's a TV show. Cameras were everywhere. I was so blinded that I couldn't see."
