The break in the tour schedule means time with family for Mars and his older brother, Eric Hernandez, a member of The Hooligans from day one and his partner in the years of struggle that preceded Mars’ “overnight success” in 2010. Bruno and Eric’s father, Pete “Dr. Doo Wop” Hernandez, and their uncle, Lawrence Bayot, opened the Blaisdell engagement as members of the Love Notes, but the superstar remarked that he had “more than 220 family here.”
That means there’s a lot of catching up to do. Looking forward to those precious days between Hawaii and the next leg of the tour, Mars said he’d like to write a song for his next album, title yet to be decided.
Was playing the National Football League’s Super Bowl halftime show for a television audience of more than 115 million people a break-through performance, in terms of reaching people who weren’t aware of the range of his talents as a singer, dancer and musician?
