Oh God you're right. I remember texting a friend of mine during that debacle. Their stage had these flashing light panels and my friend said "I think that one panel isn't working because Fergie peed on it'.

This is exactly why I appreciated it. It wasn't that it was impressive drumming, I was just pleasantly surprised that he was the one doing. Many pop stars can't do anything but sing songs others wrote for them, and maybe dance.

I like to think that Bruno Mars is what Michael Jackson would of been if he did everything right instead of well you know.

good performer. saw him live last summer.
that performance was apparently all vocals, though.
Red Hot Chili Peppers Didn't Bother To Plug In Guitars At The Super Bowl
UPDATE: A rep for the Chili Peppers notified The Huffington Post that Flea had posted a response to the halftime show buzz on the band's website. In his message, Flea admitted the vocals were live, but the bass, drums, and guitar were pre-recorded.
For the actual performance, Josh, Chad, and I were playing along with the pre recorded track so there was no need to plug in our guitars, so we did not. Could we have plugged them in and avoided bumming people out who have expressed disappointment that the instrumental track was pre recorded? Of course easily we could have and this would be a non-issue. We thought it better to not pretend. It seemed like the realest thing to do in the circumstance. It was like making a music video in front of a gazillion people, except with live vocals, and only one chance to rock it. Our only thought was to bring the spirit of who we are to the people.

I would also like to see Danny Carey sing and dance like Bruno did.
Ha may not have been Carey good, but he displayed that he's not some run of the mill 'pop' artist.
If you look at the quote I replied to, he acts like Bruno did something above average. The fact is, he did some beginner stuff on the drums and y'all think he's great? He probably practiced for a few weeks, if it wasn't pre-recorded.
Singing isn't something that can be learned. You can hone the skill, but you either have it or you don't. I'm sure if Danny Carey took dancing classes for a month he could pull of some beginner shit too.
I get that Bruno is a great performer (from what I hear) and it's cool that he gets down on the drums, but let's not make it more than it actually was
