“U.S.” then is a doing a lot of heavy lifting. Gorillaz has been a virtual band since inception and already has “Avatars” that play live. Although, the humans are also there.
- tw04 3y agoYou're conflating two things. What we're talking about is holographic avatars REPLACING the artists at a concert. The Gorillaz band members are absolutely at their live concerts.
