Lang lang performing for billions

[aewanko]

Did you mean: Lang Lang performing for thousands?

it was obviously faked.
1. the piano had no mics
2. they kept the lid closed
3. the hands were ridiculously out of sync
4. the piano was wobbling about all over the place
5. the piano had no maker logo on the side, it was white
6. it sounded ridiculously pre-recorded, and was played through the speakers
There's no way he played it live.
He's too rubbish, he couldn't even play in sync, never mind the poor girl sitting next to him who played all of three notes. I think that's why they only showed him a few times, and the rest of the time focused on the lit-up dancer people...

true

No, Lang Lang supposedly 'performed' live in the stadium, and 4 billion people on the TV watching.

That's assuming everyone was watching the opening ceremony. AFAIK it clashes with the Simpsons in some countries..so you can minus a bit..

Wow, was I ever wrong.

haha by over a billion people, yes.

Is there any video on the internet of this?

Did you hear that that little Chinese girl who was singing was also lip syncing? Apparently the real little girl who sung was too ugly to be on the stage, her teeth where crooked they said! Wouldn't surprise me if what Lang Lang did was also prerecorded.

These China games are a little strange don't you think? The stadiums are very empty because of security issues, they are going so far as to hand pick people to go into the stadiums to cheer. The atmosphere of these games are very lost I feel.
