The thing that really bugged me is that it wasn't even a fataing flashmob at all. It was on stage, in front of a paying audience, with a scheduled time, a choreographed routine along with the full participation & endorsement from the venue.

Everything about it was basically the exact opposite of a 'flash mob', they may as well have run out on stage in some bird costumes and declared "the grandstand show is now a twitter! Social Media everyone! Don't forget the youtubez!"
