Okay, so there was Flea on bass, and Josh Groban singing, but who was the rest of the group? It was a couple trumpets, sax (or two), tuba, maybe a trombone, and a drummer who mostly just played snare.
Sorry, no video at the moment, and I haven't been able to find any other information, either. The site for the Tournament of Roses doesn't even mention Flea.

Don't know, but was that an HB-2P (or 1P) he was playing?

That was Doug Tornquist on tuba and Alan Kaplan on trombone.

The Huffington Post has an
article about the performance, says it will link a video as soon as it is available.
I hope it is a bit different from all the other recordings of it he has done - I like it, but it has become somewhat predictable.

Yes, Mr. Tornquist plays an HB-2P.

The TV audio mix was pretty bad - Josh posted
this link on his website, taken by someone in the audience. It is not the whole song, but you can actually hear the other musicians a bit better. The fireworks were way over the top - they could have held off until the end...
(the comments on the other clip are strange - do people actually expect "free-form interpretations" of the SSB now? The regular version is too boring? )
