I caught a clip on Reddit of Kiddie Rock's performance, and maybe it was lagging but it looked like a lip synch? He kept pulling the microphone down to his waist while he was supposed to be still singing

Kid Rock? Why do you think the mike was by his waist area when singing?

All the stadium shows I've done use lip-synch extensively. Getting production sound to work well is really hard. In contrast, all the arena shows I've done use stage sound. However, they also use a backing track for exactly the situations where the talent's mic control is less than desirable. I can all but guarantee that Bad Bunny had a backing track going too.

Prince was live, Bad Bunny not so much. But I really enjoyed his Half-Time Show anyway, even though I don't speak Spanish. I couldn't tell if it was political or not, but it didn't matter to me - it was a lot of fun and he seems like a nice chap. I may give a few of his songs a listen on Spotify

Kiddie was a conventional stage, from what I saw. I thought they did a backtrack to smooth over the rough spots and numb out inhaling heavily and that kind of thing? Some arena type performances I've heard were certainly chopper than studio vocals

TBH, I really can't understand half the lyrics of a lot of the songs that I love.

There are some where I still don't know what the hell the singer is singing, and when I actually read the lyrics, I find that I'm almost always wrong.

To me anyway, it's the beat and music and not the lyrics. The lyrics are just incidental.

In some article that I can't find now, someone was complaining because Bad Bunny didn't used closed captions (or whatever it's called), and I'm thinking. Radio, CDs, or tapes don't have them either. Why don't they complain about that too?

What a moron.

He would drop his hand doing a dramatic flair thing at the end of a verse with a few words to go (but the words kept going like the mic was still at his mouth)

BB was loosely giving a solidarity kind of message about the Spanish speaking countries in the Americas, if I was hearing him right.

 

[AmyStrange]

Yup, that's my understanding too.

Lots of dolts online were complaining that he wasn't even American, never mind anti-America.

Just goes to prove how stupid the fat clown's maga weirdoes are.

Most critical vocals are double-miked. You have your hand mic and also a lavalier mic. So that's one way to explain how you can pull your hand mic away from your face and still get usable sound from lead vocals. Until recently, backing tracks held lead vocals only for tough spots such as long notes or hard passages. The vocalist had the option of dropping out and letting the lead vocal prerecord on the backing track handle it. These days you have automation that can bring up and blend a backing track lead vocal in real time when it senses any number of undesirable conditions on the live audio channel. So you can have an entire performance prerecorded but brought in only when needed.

Right wing Christians love Israel because they need middle east war for the second coming. And they hate Muslims, just like Netanyahu.
Actual Jews, they could do without, because they are going straight to Hell.

Actual jews they get to mow down as promised by the likes of La Haye and Robertson.

I just realized why I always thought the 'Speak English in this country!' complaint sounded so weird to me. There are a ton of Puerto Ricans around the NJ/NYC area, and always have been. I grew up with Spanish being heard as a normal thing, so no one freaked out about it, even if they weren't fluent. Like even on Sesame Street, it was totally a normal part of your day. The expectation was still more on the PRs to be bilingual though. One of my kids is certified biliterate, but not quite bilingual. She corrects my... what was the word she uses?... ah, atrocious Spanish frequently.

Lol, she sometimes thinks I'm making stuff up because my Spanish is peppered with particularly rude construction worker obscenities and vulgar expressions.

Fetch me my smelling salts. I'm utterly shocked.

My daughter's boyfriend, an electrical apprentice, is in El Paso. She is learning Spanish from him. I wonder how much "construction worker" he is teaching her.

Good riddance to the deceased, and let's drag the widow.

She is using his death to launch what she seems to be treating as her dream career, and anyway it's what the saintly Charlie would have wanted given his callous attitude to shootings of school kids.
