★★★★ - The Uptown Funk superstar was not to be eclipsed as he set Sydney alight
As a sign of the pent-up excitement, or maybe the impending sugar crash, in the audience at ground level, while we waited for the show to start a Bruno Mars impersonator walking through the crowd induced the kind of hysteria you only get at a Mark Latham speech or an Everest winners’ cheque clearing ceremony. As for the real thing, he goes all right, too.Daniel Munoz
From curly-fro-and-headband, which never seemed to wear any sweat despite the exertions, down to stacked snowy white sneakers, which turned, slid, glided and twisted, Mars was not to be eclipsed. Not by a horn section that danced as well as it played and sang even better. Not by a pyrotechnic set-up that regularly set off explosions. Not even by super fly bass player Jamareo Artis, who could rip through butt-shaking riffs without missing a step in his all-stops dance moves., more your Earth Wind & Fire exuberant funk, or a James Brown & The Flames-style, brassed-up, funked-down, ankle-snapping, balloon-popping number, Mars had our number.
