The Hives and Ne-Yo at NHL All-Star
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Playing “Tick, Tick, Boom”, rockers the Hives kicked off the NHL All-Star Game at Philips Arena Sunday with a literal bang.
It was the first of two riveting performances of the evening. The Hives’ was such because of the sheer energy of the song. As for Atlanta R&B superstar Ne-Yo’s - who played after the second intermission - one couldn’t help but pay close attention just to see if someone would fall.
Unlike the Hives, on a stage, the singer came out on the ice - along with his midriff-baring dancers and the Halftime Live Marching Band. To his credit, Ne-Yo seemed to be unphased by the surely unusual conditions, hitting Michael Jackson steps and spins as he sang “Because of You.”
If you were there, what did you think of the musical performances? Better yet, if you’re a hockey fan who goes to see the games in general, how often do you hear R&B played?
