I remember during the in game thread people were saying Mars was probably lip syncing. And Beyonce and others raised hell for it, but while Keidas was miked up and obviously live.

The guitar and bass were unplugged.

As noted by Fansided, Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea and guitarist Josh Klinghoffer didn’t appear to have their instruments plugged in during the halftime show, which came during the most-watched television program of all time.

I know Who cares? By why is it a HUGE deal if a singer lipsyncs, but when a band plays air guitar it isn't even noticed?

Scruffy realized it when the guitarist was flailing around, yet he still played an awesome solo.

Kinda bullshite in Scruffy's opinion.

My FB feed was "we need more RHCP" and I do prefer them to Bruno. But I saw that article and knew that if the singing was lipsynced it would be an issue.

Not nearly as bad as the Thanksgiving and Christmas parade performances. Those are terrible.

BTW, I've played air guitar live before. Of course, I was plugged in so it looked legit. It was the most awkward thing ever.

I dig his reasoning for not plugging in the guitars at least...they didnt want to even act like they weren't doing it.

It sounds like they embellished everything on purpose and weren't even trying to pretend to play. Pretty funny.

Not a huge Bruno fan, but he performed his balls off, down to his James Brown footwork. Not really concerned about the faux playing, but lip syncing just sucks.

exactly the point, yet people like OP freak out and act like Bruno's band didn't do the exact same thing.

yea, but you took the article at face value instead of taking the time to learn the truth, which makes you just like the people I referred to
