Title: Lip syncing, on a whole new level!
Post by: Unruly on February 04, 2014, 10:43:24 AM

I noticed this during the halftime show at the Super Bowl, but didn't rewind to look at it closer.

Glad someone else did.

What do you guys think of this?

Nihilists don't care about plugging in their instruments.  Or anything else.

Yeah, Anthony was singing too. Pretty sure Bruno's band wasn't playing either.

so the NFL didn't want to risk a bad sounding halftime show but was willing to risk playing the game in a blizzard

The last time we did it (or tried to) was in the late 80's, we were thrown off of 'The Top Of the Pops' television program in the U.K. during rehearsals because we refused to mime properly, I played bass with my shoe, John played guitar atop Anthony's shoulders, and we basically had a wrestling match onstage, making a mockery of the idea that it was a real live performance.
