BRUNO MARS IN CONCERT
Classic showmanship in the vein of James Brown and Michael Jackson is alive and well, and Bruno Mars is here to prove it. Mars takes the stage with The Hooligans, a tightly choreographed nine-piece soul band that serves as the perfect representation of his commitment to the live experience – a commitment that led to his selection as the halftime performer at Super Bowl XLVIII. A classic song-and-dance man and multi-platinum selling pop star, Mars references everyone from Prince to The Police in both his image and sound, but the result is more than mere imitation; as a songwriter and producer, he has successfully combined the sounds of his pop idols with reggae and hip hop to create a new generation of genre-crossing hits. In anticipation of his Super Bowl performance, fans can get tickets to catch Bruno Mars in concert on 2013’s Moonshine Jungle Tour.
BRUNO MARS BACKGROUND
Mars was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii, where he gained his first exposure to music playing rock and Motown covers in his family’s band, The Love Notes. By age five, the Elvis Presley impersonations he performed with the band had gained him a reputation on the island and landed him a cameo in the 1992 film Honeymoon in Vegas. After high school, Mars moved to Los Angeles to pursue music, finding initial success as a member of The Smeezingtons, the writing and production team behind Flo Rida’s 2009 hit “Right Round.” His first success as a solo artist came in 2010 with “Nothing On You,” a collaboration with rapper B.o.B. that peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned the duo several Grammy nominations. Mars’ debut album, 2010’s Doo-Wops & Hooligans, landed at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and contained two worldwide No. 1 hits with “Grenade” and feel-good ballad “Just The Way You Are,” which nabbed him his first Grammy (Best Male Pop Vocal Performance). Sophomore album Unorthodox Jukebox (2012) was an even bigger success, peaking at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and spawning the ubiquitous hits “Locked Out of Heaven” and “When I Was Your Man.”
The MGM is a nice, smaller venue so it was great to see Bruno there instead of an arena. He literally had us dancing the whole time which made for an awesome night! Must see!
Never disappoints …consistently high quality high energy performance
The Bruno Mars concert was excellent lights, smoke, and fire works nothing but excitement thru out the whole show. Love it come back again to Mgm National Harbor!
Bruno and his band + live performance = unforgettable memory
It was the best thing to ever happened to me. Bruno Mars is really all that. The voice is … and the moves… urgggghhh… he’s even FUNNY. The band was AMAZING TOO ! The no phone rule is a 50/50 to me. Like I would have loved a few memories of that night.
He came out fired up. The entire band/ group were rocking. Enjoyed to the fullest.
This by far was the best concert I ever saw. This concert was fantastick. Sorry to see it end everyone had a great time.
Bruno Mars was awesome. It was the best concern ever….
Great performance ever! Bruno is the GOAT! Awesome lighting effects, music, sound and all! The BEST performer!
Awesome entertainer from the beginning all the way through to the end!!!
One of my all time favorite concerts from beginning to end. Bruno Mars and his extraordinary band are just as much fun to watch as it seems like they are having! I would see them again and again!
Awesome show very entertaining. We danced all night!
Venue had some issues where people with cheap seats kept sitting in expensive seats. This was the MGM in National Harbor. If these people know that the seats have not been purchased then surely the venue knows enough to keep an eye on these seats as well. People would get chased out of seat and 10 minutes later they were back. Very distracting. Actually had 5 people trying to occupy 2 seats. Bruno was fantastic! What an entertainer. Danced all night and sang his heart out. Loved his show again!!!
He lives up to the hype! He was amazing! He sang, he danced,he played the guitar, the piano, he talked to the crowd like we were friends. My seats were so good, I was 4th row and he was worth EVERY dime I spent. He really is an all around performer, I didn’t want the concert to end. I was a casual fan of his before, but NOW! No Bruno Mars slander will be tolerated on my watch. Haha
I was very happy I was able to experience his show. He is a true talent and must see!
I haven’t seen Bruno on stage since 2013. This man is a true performer and artist! Everyone was dancing and singing the entire 2 hours. His band, AMAZING. They really know how to put on a show and make everyone feel alive.
Bruno and his guys were amazingly talented. Dancing and laughing the whole time. Every act should strive to be this entertaining. Money well spent and i didnt mind having my phone locked away for one minute.
Awesome live experience for my 80-year old mother who loves Bruno Mars. She watches him on YouTube everyday. To look over at her up dancing and singing along with him the entire night was wonderfully overwhelming. She was so happy and had the BEST time ever. She can't wait to do it again. It was the best birthday trip ever for her. Thank you Bruno Mars and Ticketmaster for a special mother-daughter memory etched in my mind forever!
Loved it even thou the show started late. Loved it so must came to the show twice. Great show
I've seen hundreds of concerts over the years since 1970, this one was a dance party that never stopped. Bruno is an engaging artist, - those dimples when he smiles - and the band is tight. They are there to please the crowd. Next time I will go all in the the front row.
