Hatsune Miku
Hatsune Miku is a singing synthesizer with a female voice. This synthesizer may just be a fake voice placed against music, but it has exploded. Individuals actually paying to see hologram projections of an animated female singer is ridiculous. I don't understand how anyone in their right mind would want to watch something so synthetic and dumb. People paying money to see an animated singer live is insane.

You're not seeing it. Miku is a phenomenon - a completely new way to create music. She is not controlled by a record label. All of her music (as well her videos, costumes, even her personality) is created by her massive online fan community, in one of the largest collaborative crowdsourced creative endeavours in history. Hundreds of new original Miku songs are uploaded every single week, with the power of social media deciding which ones are best. The concerts draw from the very best and most popular songs from the over 100,000 that Miku has recorded. It's a unique organic grass-roots approach that allows thousands of indy artists and musicians a chance to connect with a worldwide fanbase in the millions. So hellyeah - I would go to one of her concerts in a hearbeat.
