real-world, real-time mashup

Gorillaz’ Feel Good, Inc., and whatever Madonna is doing (her legs are too distracting for me to parse her music) were performed at the Grammy award ceremony. This is particularly impressive when the fact that the Gorillaz are a virtual band of cartoons that appear onstage with the arguably real Madonna. Check out Madonna vs. Gorillaz.

  1. That is uncanny.

    Weird thing in my book is that once again she's got a pole on stage, but she barely uses it. Same as in the Drowned World tour (watched the video for my dance company, I swear). Sort of disappointing.
