Title: Michael Jackson Concert
Post by: Miss Demeanour on March 06, 2009, 08:50:04 AM
So these will be the last concerts he is ever going to perform eh  noooo: noooo: noooo:

What an absolute load of balderdash and nonsense - he is broke and wants his loyal 'fans' to support his future lifestyle and keep him afloat.

(https://www.virtual-pub.com/SMF/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.mirror.co.uk%2Fupl%2Fm4%2Fmar2009%2F8%2F1%2Fmichael-jackson-pic-getty-101190380.jpg&hash=6e45bd27199d4c2fe074677dd68782f5a94841f6)

Quote
“I love you so much. Thank you all.” Flashing a peace sign, he then started to chant: “This is it! This is it!”
And he had a surprise in store for the crowd when he added: “These will be my final show performances in London. This will be it. When I say, ‘This is it’, I really mean, ‘This is it’. I’ll be performing the songs my fans want to hear, this is it, I mean that this is the final curtain call, OK?”

They are already quoting obscene amounts of money that will be paid for the tickets - this is just one massive rip off.

I appreciate that if people are stupid enough to pay thousands of pounds for a ticket then so be it - the touts will also make thosands - Jackson will make millions - the 'fans' will get to see a has been in concert in London  (because he is avoiding his own country like the plague  noooo: )

I think you can take it that I won't be going  evil:

Michael Jackson has rescheduled the first four shows of his sell-out 'This Is It' tour at London's O2 Arena, causing chaos for fans.

However, the first gig will now be July 13 and not July 8 as originally planned.

And fans who were planning to travel to the capital for the next three shows will now have to wait until 2010 to see the King of Pop as the July 10 show has been moved to March 1; July 12 to March 3 and July 14 to March 6.


And so it begins.......... noooo: noooo: noooo:

Michael Jackson has hit out at his London O2 Arena gig bookers, saying he believed he only signed up to play 10 shows - not the 50 he is scheduled for - at the venue.Speaking to fans outside the Los Angeles dance studio where he's rehearsing for the gigs, the singer admitted that he might not be physically well enough to complete all 50 shows

Ear candling, also called ear coning or thermal-auricular therapy, is an alternative medicine practice claimed to improve general health and well-being by lighting one end of a hollow candle and placing the other end in the ear canal. According to medical researchers, it is both dangerous and ineffective.[2] Claims that the practice removes earwax have been thoroughly debunked. The claim by one manufacturer that ear candles originated with the Hopi tribe has also been disproven.[3]

I can do charm. Peope in certain circles have often commented on the way I lean on their mantlepiece at dinner parties. There is a technique of course like everything worth doing well. I tend to use the right elbow, leaving the left arm free with the cigarette and holder to languidly gesture when discussing breeding stock, crossed legs also add a touch of class.
I once tried the same when wearing a cravat at a dinner in Windsor, I was soundly horse whipped and banned from Berkshire for the whole season, it pays not to be too avant garde.

La Toya Jackson last night claimed her brother Michael was "murdered" for his millions.

She alleged his death was the result of "foul play" by hangers-on.

La Toya, 53, said: "Michael was murdered. And we don't think just one person was involved. Rather, it was a conspiracy of people.

"Michael was worth well over a billion in music publishing assets and somebody killed him for that. He was worth more dead than alive.

"He was surrounded by a bad circle. Michael was a very meek, quiet, loving person. People took advantage of that."

And now the FILM  Banghead


Michael Jackson's concert documentary, This Is It, has been warmly received by the late singer's fans after its worldwide premiere.

The movie was pieced together from 100 hours of footage shot at rehearsals for the star's ill-fated comeback shows.

Fan Darryn Wade, in Los Angeles, said: "Judging by that film, it would have been the best show of all time."

But Kasian Daley, 17, at the London premiere, said: "It's an easy way for them to make money off his name."

It's like you were able to see Michael again for the last time, so it was a good chance to say goodbye to him

At that premiere, fan Ed Rahmen said the movie proved the concerts at London's O2 Arena would have been "the best thing he had ever done".

"It was like a film on stage. It was better than any of his early stuff. It was Jackson brought to this time and age."

Neda Allin added: "You can see he was a bit ill, or he didn't look right, but the movie was brilliant."



FFS why not set up a direct debit straight to the Jackson family account and give them your monthly wages  noooo:
