2Pac Shakur

[Boxofpandoraz]

I saw on the news that it was so popular, "he" may be going on tour soon.

.

I've already started coming up with ideas for business ventures that the hologram could embark on. I've also decided that the hologram should be renamed "3DPac".

Here's a couple of my ideas.

- A photo booth where fans can be photographed with 3DPac. As the video from Coachella clearly shows, he does photograph really well. They could call this venture "Pics with Pac".

- A theme park ride, or permanent museum-quality exhibit. Wherein the tourist could perform in simulated concerts along side their hero. Since the vocal recreation is a part of the technology that went into making the hologram possible, it would therefore be possible to do personalized "shout outs" to the tourist while "on stage". They could opt to purchase either a DVD or a CD of their performance after the experience is over.

My friend just told me that I'm like the Walt Disney of dead rappers. Thanks...I think.

That was freaky. I wonder how long it will be until we can watch Buddy Holly perform in our living rooms.

Now THAT would be worth seeing!!!

[Zoe_Zeppelin]

That 2Pac hologram was cool! I would have loved to have been there.

Peppers Ghost.. Also interesting is that CGI tupac was made by the same people who did the CGI for Titanic =P.

Thanks to the Magic School bus and Mrs. Frizzle for teaching me about that effect a long time ago =P!! (see episode 31) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...l_Bus_episodes

Lol -- I had the exact same thought...

I dunno, the whole thing is more creepy than anything for me. I even think it's kinda ghoulish when artists do "duets" with dead musicians or perform with them onstage (like Celine Dion and Elvis on AI -- that was just plain weird). It's sort of a like a muppet version of Tupac.

[ScarletStarlet]

I thought it was ace! Funny though, he says "what the f**k is up, Coachella?"

Tupac died in 1996. The first Coachella was in 1999. Just sayin'

[racingfan]

I think that was part of the novelty of it. That part wasn't supposed to be his real voice. It was "digitally recreated" according to what ive read. They won't reveal how much was from Tupac himself and how much was manufactured.

[BelleRain]

The piece I read also said that Tupac had never performed Gangster Party live before. They used his moves and voice from other performances, and pieced it all together to get what we saw. I thought it was just great. And now Dre is thinking of more performances and shows to have the hologram of him perform at.

[racingfan]

I heard Dre and Snoop Dogg are planning on actually taking Hologram Tupac on tour.

[BelleRain]

Yep, I heard that also. Of course they will, Dre just hit another gold mine.

[racingfan]

Still think it's weird.

[BelleRain]

And I saw in a article today....Dre says he would love to see a Hendrix hologram perform LOL This is gonna be the next big thing.

[monroe27]

that is for real creepy....

[endsleigh03]

Finally got to see the Tupac hologram.

Just awesome.

[snowblindburd]

Two pictures I saw on another forum, thought I'd share lol.

I'm not into rap at all but have watched the video several times and am totally awed by it. I live just a few miles from there and would love to see it live on Sunday.

[Ouattara]

I think that the autopsy photo is the one of Tupac died.

My mistake, it is just one pic!

Oh wow. I really dont know much about Tupac but I had read he never did it live, and that was supposed to be added impression to the hologram LOL Oh well,. They were wrong. See Cant get nothing past us death hags.

[Shejay]

Dr. Dre shoulda saved some of the money he "donated" to 3DPac's charity and helped out with his dead homeboy's Nate Doggs outstanding medical bills... SMH....

[msmekia78]

I remember when I first saw the pic of dead Tupac... my brother was....nope that's not him..... I wish I could dig him up just to prove it

He was cremated and buried on his mother's farm, under a tree. Safe to say, digging him up and "proving" anything won't be happening.

[Tiffany]

I believe it was Reagan who criticized one of Tupac's albums for being too violent.....

I thought he was scattered on the beach with some of Tupac's personal belongings like jewelry & such.......& some were smoked.
