The roleplay in GTA Online is currently extremely popular. Some of the major streamers spend many hours daily in the RP world. One streamer held a special in-game concert that attracted thousands of viewers.
What makes GTA roleplay special: In recent weeks, GTA 5 roleplay streams have consistently been at the top of the streaming platform TwitchTV.
Major streamers like Sodapoppin and Lirik entertain their millions of followers by taking on roles of police officers, FBI agents, aggressive gangsters, or teenagers. This allows viewers to see a new side of their favorite streamer, providing great entertainment.
To stand out among these big streamers with millions of followers, one must come up with something special. The streamer MikeTheBard managed to do just that a few days ago with great success. He captured the attention of thousands of viewers.
This is how the concert went: MikeTheBard used the new “Twitch Sings” feature for his GTA roleplay stream. This is a feature for streamers who want to stream karaoke. With this feature, he could connect his stream so that he, as a player, could play the song and voice in the stream.
A clip shows him in a bar while the streamer sings Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.” There are countless covers of the song on YouTube. Anyone who has sifted through them knows that the song can also be messed up. However, MikeTheBard was able to impress with his version. Listen for yourself:
Not only can the streamer impress with his voice. He plays several instruments. While performing Ozzy Osbourne’s “Mama, I’m coming home,” MikeTheBard grabbed the electric guitar and belted out a short solo.
The audience grew: Of course, it didn’t take long for viewers to gather around this talent. The news of the concert spread through the in-game tweet system. It was streamed over Mike’s in-game radio station.
Streamers like Lirik and Vader appeared in the bar and watched the concert. They shared the experience with thousands of their viewers in the live stream. Together with Mike’s own viewers, several thousand attended the virtual concert.
The clips of the concert are already achieving up to 166,000 views individually on Twitch. From Vader’s perspective, the concert looked like this and even featured a mosh pit while Mike performed Bohemian Rhapsody:
For Mike, the concert was a significant moment. In his GTA streams, he plays the role of “Hubcap Jones, an old washed-up rocker,” he explains Kotaku.
In his role as Hubcap Jones, he threw the rest of his band out of the group and is now the owner of a fully functional in-game radio station. “Hubcap is all about rocking, peace, love, drugs, and having a good time at any cost. He also loves his wife Karen.”
