Tupac @Coachella festival...Who's Next ?
What did you think of TuPacs holographic performance at Sunday nights Coachella Music Festival ? Im still not sure. When I saw the links via Facebook, I just assumed it was one of those pesky videos with viruses attached. But after a while I realised something was up. The first time I watched the performance ( I watched It about 10 times in total) I was was left open mouthed and some what emotional....
So I'm thinking its been 16 years since Tupac was killed, but there he is, Live ( well live-ish) and owning it!!. But 2 days after this performance, I have to wonder WTF!!! will this be the beginning of a new trend? whats next ? will there be a performance by Biggie Smalls? Will Michael Jackson be forced back to fulfil his contract for the THIS IS IT TOUR part 1?, or will Whitney Houston be resurrected to promote her yet to be released album ?
James Montgomery writes in his article, that the show was "part séance, part neo-necromancy. Holo-pac heralds the coming of a brave new era of revenue-grabbing, legacy-tarnishing spectacles. At the moment, beaming your favourite deceased star onto a stage night after night is probably cost prohibitive, but soon, it won't be. ........The mind boggles, and, to be honest, the heart aches".
This is how it was done
