Gorillaz Virtual Band Performs as Holograms

Update: Kind of dissapointed that the Gorillaz aren't ushering the start of the holographic era (thanks, Darran) but not really surprised. End result looked amazing so who cares if the technology isn't quite Star Trek yet...
“Our Gorillaz aren’t holograms because holographic technology isn’t quite up to what we need. It is digital animation projected on special transparent foil in a way that appears holographic.”
