Are You Ready For Another Hologram?
On Wednesday [April 27th] the world paid tribute and respect to Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez of the r&B/pop top selling group TLC who passed away on that date 10 years ago.
In an interview with Essence.com, Surviving members, Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas announced their reunion tour in which the trio would all perform on stage via Left Eye Hologram if the budget permits. It’s been a long time coming for TLC, and I think this would great for the tour given that most of their music involves Left Eye but it’s an expensive purchase.
Notice how T-Boz and Chilli mention budget. Chilli told Essence
I have been trying to get a hologram for years but no one would pay for the budget.
Well, in case you missed the memo, Tupac’s hologram performance at Coachella cost 500,000 to complete. Now this is an expensive bill and although this is indeed a good cause, but this could dent their pockets a bit if their management label and or tour company doesn’t fit the bill.
I’m more concert with the long-term ramifications. I mean what happens when everyone else decides to jump on the bandwagon. I guess only time will tell!
In the meantime, Here’s one my favorite song of TLC “No Scrubs”
