dynomite if you wanna dance with somebody you always gotta dance with that somebody that loves you, feeling the heat to chase those blues away and feel that love hot enough to last because her lonely heart calls when the night falls and oh she'll be calling brohan

Yep. Semen does lengthen the vocal cords, thus making the voice sound deeper.

Personal experience?

My wife sounds like Barry White.

Sorry about that.

lol she probably looks like Barry too..

Damn you're funny.

Thought he was pretty good. I dont know if he typically tries to be a combo of James Brown and Michael Jackson with a modern twist, but he pulled it off well.

He can dance and he's talented. I was really looking forward to the show, and he put on a good show. Too bad his songs are completely uninteresting.

Elvis Presto - now there was a Super Bowl halftime show

 

[tommyboy]

was thoroughly entertained, he did a quick little drum jam thing at the beginning which I thought he did well, then goes into his song, then does a James Brown nod, then Chili's, then slowjam finale. Quite a bit of stuff jammed into a short segment, but all of it was flawless and well done. A bonus was the amazing light show in the background, pretty cool how they pull that off. Great stuff.

2 shows to the Hollywood Bowl sold out in a few minutes this morning. Going June 1. Hey, when you take your wife to a JT, John Mayer, Bruno Mars type concert at least you know you're in for a multi-dot evening...

I was thinking Morris Day.

Apparently there was a football game at the Bruno Mars concert last night

Bruno was excellent...then Red Hot Chili Peppers came out and stunk it up. Tens years from now, it probably will be the Super Bowl Concert and tickets include access to the NFL championship game.

I don't think they stunk it up. They just did what they do. I wish they would have played one of there newer songs though.

I thought you made that up

EDIT: Has to be seen to be believed. That was an actual Super Bowl halftime show?

NOTE: linked article above is from before Mars' performance.

Flea has posted about it: http://redhotchilipeppers.com/news/454-a-message-from-flea

He says they had no choice in the matter. Left it unplugged because did not want to pretend.

Apparently Flea, all his life, has gotten stoned to the bone on weed before walking out onstage. Every night. Ha.

The opening drum solo and all vocals were the only live music in the show.

Geezus. That is a good thing, I can't imagine that crazy ####er on speed then. Probably just explode.

Bruno killed it. Was the biggest winner from the Super Bowl. He made himself tens of millions of dollars.

Chili Peppers? An afterthought but would imagine most people were guessing how old Kiedis was and shocked he is 51. Not so bad.

 

[belljr]

no idea they perform for free technically

Man - I got tix for Bruno Mars for the Hollywood Bowl. Sold out 2 shows in minutes. Paid $105 for OK seats, dead center M1. Same section next morning on Craigslist and Stubhub - $260-$400 for the same seat. Granted, that's scalper asking price and it's 4 months until the show, but still the demand is huge. Is there a bigger gig than getting the halftime show at a SuperBowl? I mean, how many people worldwide who never knew who Bruno Mars was are now fans?
