live performances with live singing and playing??

I would argue that a more "in the moment" "LIVE" performance lends itself to a more impactful spectacle than a lip sync performance..

it invovles MORE elements interplaying with each other..involves MORE individuals participating and contributing to a common action....

it's BIGGER...

also what makes something a spectacle is the artist themselves being involved....How iconic the particular artist is....

an artist who is either a musician or who plays with musicians and sings live is a BIGGER more accomplished artist than someone who depends more on pre-recorded stuff....
