man - i mean , who's NOT going to be up there cheering him on?

those dancers were 20 feet away from watching an icon perform - likely they'd practiced some of his moves from since young and he was THERE doing it right in front of them - 20 feet away! i would've been the same way! this wasn't some impersonator, it was the man himself!

its not to say some of them couldn't do what he did better at this point in his life - but he created the entire world they were now a part of - very special moments you can take on your next job or into old age, etc. plus, its' also a form of respect and a way to 'push' that extra out of each move - its unwritten but they were obviously part of his support out on that journey - the same energy he likely had w/his bros when they did it back in the day, and the support they look for when doing other gigs. they were all are out there sweating and getting in that 'chamber'. plus they know he's 50 and WORKING it!
