[5] yeah, it ain't easy making a living as a musician. for events like that, people expect us to perform for the 'honor' of being part of such a 'cool thing' and we're not compensated monetarily. for me, i couldn't care less about the performing at a football game - "fuck you, pay me"!!! haha : )
that said, i did play at turner field once for no pay. got the royal treatment though, as far as having my gear towed, free food and free tickets in a super nice private room & box. plus, the band i worked with payed all the bills and more, so it was totally worth it...
[6] Nice "Goodfellas" drop there!
Seems like a lot of 80s icons we grew up with are dropping..if I were Prince or Madonna I'd hit the gym and eat my vegetables every day..
[3] From what I understand it was not a lip sync it was there was a time delay on the feed, which is not unusual for performances in large venues. She was actually singing it there, but we were hearing a recording, if that makes since. The point is she did not record it somewhere else. It was an in-the-moment event.
I came across this link on another site yesterday. It's Whitney's isolated track on "How will I know." I am pretty sure I rocked out to this song during 5th and 6th grade dances back in the day. http://jakefogelnest.com/post/17460767716
It's nothing to do with the girl, I was just suggesting, y'know, in her honor or whatever, to use a proper singing clip, but again, I was just throwing it out there. Not a big deal.
I'm truly heartbroken, however it came to this. But we all have our time to go, whether we know when it's coming or not. I just hope now someone will protect her daughter from the demons she tried to help her mother escape from. Sometimes life sucks no matter what, huh?
I was sort of disappointed they didn't just play the whole performance of "I WIll Always Love You" last night on the Grammys. I mean geez, let's hear it.
RIP, but maybe a non-lip synced clip would be better? Maybe there isn't such a thing
It wasn't lip syched but there is a delay on the recording which makes it fall out of sych.
I hate to say it but I think it was lip synced: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Star_Spangled_Banner_(Whitney_Houston_song)
It's not the end of the world of course
3) Wow didn't know that. Thanks for the link.
So the orchestra for that performance didn't even get paid? Sadly, in this country that's about par for the course.

Jesus, give the girl a break, anyway.
[9] Although that Wiki post seems to refute what I just wrote, if it's accurate. [Sigh]. Nevermind...
What's the difference, at this point, anyway, though?

[12] Just for you, Hawk.
[14] thanks!

i was never much of a fan but she can sing. recorded or not, it is hard to make the star spangled banner soar. and she pulls it of.
