Yes, that happened at the closing ceremonies to the Manchester Commonwealth Games in 2002 and was a lot better.
Again the versions of that event Youtube are extremely poor quality so I am glad I recorded it off air instead. |

By MK - wamtec@comcast.net Wed 24/08/16 04:48:26 GMT All the videos of the closing ceremony are total crap quality. It looks like somebody was pointing a cellphone or a tablet at a flat screen tv....all the sharpness of true HD quality is lost.
I thought the scene was a misleading nothing-burger but because of the poor quality I was unsure....so I downloaded a true 1080 HD quality video of this event that aired on the BBC in the UK....and then you see the true HD quality....but it does nothing to improve the wetlook quality because all it did was confirm to me that this scene was a nothing burger and singer is barely noticebly wet....all you can see from the HD version is a few water droplets dripping from her arms but her hair never appears to be wet at all.
So the bottom line is....you did not miss anything worth seeing.
Certainly not on a par with Diana Ross' concert in Central Park in 1983.

By AnthonyX - anthonyx@jowc.net Wed 24/08/16 01:30:00 GMT What's with the video quality? The camera movements suggest that it was a professional crew, but the picture quality reminds me of consumer grade analog video gear c.1985.
I'm referring to the halo effect around the singer. Any pro gear would produce sharp, accurate outlines despite backlighting, even if not captured in HD.
Any thoughts, MK?
