They performed it on The Tonight Show With Craig Doyle! ;D
When he was introducing them, he said they were performing 'Rock DJ' from their upcoming album

Yup.

I think the performance was mostly mimed, right? Which got me thinking last night and caused me to Twit-moan for a bit about the production of ROCK DJ:

• Listening to that YT clip of Rock DJ performance is making me worried. It sounds mimed, but that doesn't bother me per se... about 8 hours ago via yoono
  
  
• ... Thing is, what if that backing tape is the actual finished track for the album? :-( It sounds the same as the original, ... about 8 hours ago via yoono
  
  
• ... no new spin to it whatsoever. :-( This majorly sucks. Did the producer just used the existing karaoke version? about 8 hours ago via yoono
  
  
  
• Wouldn't they at this stage (when most of the album is finished) be performing the songs in their new versions? I'm not too thrilled, tbh. about 8 hours ago via yoono
  
  
• Not trying to moan, love them just as much or even more if that's possible. Hopefully I'm totally wrong. XD about 8 hours ago via yoono
  
  
• @ciumkala Exactly. Okay, do covers if that's your wish, but make 'em different. Jedify them! about 8 hours ago via yoono in reply to Ciumkala
  
  
• sparkle_Miss I at least hope he gave the songs a bit of a different sound and a bit of a Jed-touch. if not, we're in for a karaoke album. about 8 hours ago via yoono in reply to Sparkle_Miss
  
  
• sparkle_Miss I'm sure they are. But after not getting an original tune I wanted the covers to be at least done in a fresh way. about 8 hours ago via yoono in reply to Sparkle_Miss
  
  
• sparkle_Miss If not, it's basically an XF re-run after what? 8 months? about 8 hours ago via yoono in reply to Sparkle_Miss
  
  
• sparkle_Miss I don't hold this against them, of course. i blame that Nigel guy. about 8 hours ago via yoono in reply to Sparkle_Miss
  
  
• sparkle_Miss What if he just kept Rock DJ intact as it is in its karaoke version? Sounds like that. And I'd hate that. about 8 hours ago via yoono in reply to Sparkle_Miss

Yep, it was definately mimed! That probably was the finished track!

I saw the performance from youtube and I never even noticed. I hope Universal aren't going to turn them into artists that mime as I love hearing them sing live and I think they're good at singing while jumping around the stage. And if they do mime it will just give all the haters more reason to criticise them

Anyway I'm quite glad 'Rock DJ' is on the album.

I think they are good singers too!
But it was still a great performance ;D even if they mimed.
