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.”

This guy is so talented and you can tell he loves what he's doing. Bruno Mars' voice is so sweet but raw and powerful at the same time. I got goosebumps. Thanks for a great time! I hope you come to Boston again!
Bruno Mars puts on a great show! He is very talented and funny.
Bruno Mars puts on an INCREDIBLE show! He sounds just as good live as he does on the radio!
This place was so small and intimate and Bruno has an amazing voice...naturally ! Loved it!
Great performance with lots of energy and passion. The show was amazing, and the whole band was sounded great. The show was entertaining and had a very fun vibe all throughout. Bruno has an amazing voice that stayed clear and strong through every song. And he came out for an encore!
bruno mars was such an amazing show. he is really an artist, who can sing his ass off!!! he engaged the crowd and the whole band was amazing... I would go to EVERY bruno mars concert I can. and recommend him to everyone.
He's a great performer! Even his opening act Adonis was great. Good stuff loved his band, loved the performance. It was their last stop of the tour and they certainly had fun with it..
The venue was smaller, which was nice because you could get closer to the stage. The opening act was strong and Bruno is awesome live. He sounds even better than his CD which is impressive. He only sang for an hour, which was a shorter set list, but it was good.
just as good live as they are in the studio.. awsome
Bruno was just wonderful. This is my 2nd concert with Bruno Mars. His Doowap & Hooligans just completed the personality package of the whole concert. Fun times...never a dull moment. At $25 a tix...this was a complete steal! I would go again.
This was the most amazing concert that I have ever been to and probably will ever go to. Bruno is an amazing performer and his songs sound even better live.
Bruno Mars was totally amazing, I just wish he could have played longer!!
One of the best live performances I've been to in years! Bruno Mars sounds better live than on the radio. And that is a hard feat in today's day and age of manufactured pop.
Bruno was as amazing as I thought he was going to be. His voice was perfect and he made all the girls drool. I love him and i will be meeting him one day.
I already liked Bruno Mars' music before I saw him live, but now I think I am officially in love. His performance was dynamic and fun and I had a great time with my friends at his show. All the songs I had come to obsess over on the album were even better when he was up there singing them. If you ever get the chance to see him, don't miss it!
Bruno Mars is amazing live. I saw him in SF before and he does not disappoint! So GOOD LIVE! He definitely puts on a show but I wish the show was a bit longer. However...everyone was very annoyed of the 30min set change and sound check. You're suppose to do sound check before the show! We were all left there standing for 30mins in a cramp space....But still an amazing show. I would definitely see him a third time.
it was a great show I went to with some friends and I would definitely go see his concert again
Overall the show was great! The DJ between sets kept the party going! Worst part about the show, there was only one place to be...front row. If you were not up front you couldn't see....They had two HUGE screens on either side of the stage and didn't utilize them. Big mistake...that would have been much better!
