      *Gnarls Barkley, Janelle Monae and Battles took the stage at New York's Fillmore at Irving Plaza on Sunday night (June 8) as part of MySpace's 150th "Secret Show," a free concert for users who have signed up as a "friend" of the Secret Show profile.      

       With the temperature hovering around 90 degress, Gnarls Barkley vocalist Cee-Lo took the stage in a tuxedo shirt and tie to belted out tracks like "Run" and a cover of the Violent Femmes' "Gone Daddy Gone." By the end of his set, he had stripped down to an undershirt and had taken a seat to sing the final songs of their set, including the group's breakthrough hit, "Crazy," "Smiley Faces," "Who's Gonna Save My Soul Now" and "Whatever," reports Billboard.      

       Working with labels and artists, MySpace Music launched the Secret Shows franchise in January 2006 and has since hosted such acts as Rilo Kiley, Moby, Maroon 5, the Killers, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Tenacious D, Lily Allen, Ice Cube, James Blunt and Neil Diamond in cities around the world.      

       The concept is the brainchild of MySpace Music editor Isac Walter, who wanted to attract fans to a MySpace profile where they could find out about promotional shows, with an urgent call to action.      

       "We have such a large social network we can pull from that we literally can go into any city and announce a show 48 hours in advance and fill an entire venue," Walter said.
