lol But this appearance was hyped with claims that he would perform?!

Will people who bought tickets expecting to see a performance be disappointed? hmmm

Well, the press hyped it. Mike never said a word about performing there, so we´ll see.
Well I personally would be happy just to see him.

Newer fans will never understand that Michael was truely at his best as a performer with his brothers. My cousin went to see the Jacksons back in 81 at Madison Gardens too, and up till today she still says that was one of the best concerts ever and she has been to alot of concerts including Michael's solo concerts.


The early dates of the Bad tour (before the lip synching) were at least as good as anything he did before. He was probably at his peak as a dancer on the Dangerous tour but it was ruined by a 50% lip synched show.



I dont agree...I have seen mike 11 times between 1976 and 1988.. the bad tour was great...but there was a time where he was still a mildly underground phenomenon...the heights of the early J5 years had long past..and he was very much still mostly adored and loved by young BLACK people...the Jacksons always had hits with their BLACK fanbase even tho' the pop audience would only get into certain jams like shake your body , blame it on the boogie..ect...The Floodgates burst open with off the wall..Yet even after all the success from OTW.. MJ was still very much a BLACK performer playing his tunes in a very soulful and Funky manner...the glove was new..the getting on his toes was new...the high black pants/white socks was new...and like anything thats new..THAT SHIT WAS MIND BLOWING back in the days !!!! wink

This is the Best Live adult Michael Jackson.

the victory tour? that's pretty cool. did MJ even have a proper solo Thriller tour? i think the victory tour was basically it, since it was around 1984.

when did he? i'd say 99% of his tv performances have been lip synced. I'd love for someone to explain how he is so amazing when he never sings live and repeats what was amazing once in my youth of 1982?

SOmeone slap me. I am getting hysterical that I am not there. My friends who did go have seen him twice already yesterday. There is a chance that he might be performing and there even is a fan party afterwards which he should attend!!!!! DAMN IT!!!!
I know that the non-MJ fans do not understand it, but it´s been like 10 years since I could see him in concert.....it´s not like with the other artists who release albums, go on tours like every other year....With Mike one shouldn´t miss their chances because you never know if and when you´re going to have another one.....

Michael Jackson's partial comeback is no thriller
By Mike Collett-White
Reuters
Wednesday, November 15, 2006; 6:53 PM

LONDON (Reuters) - Reclusive pop superstar Michael Jackson made a musical comeback of sorts on Wednesday, singing the chorus line of his charity single "We Are The World" before the sound cut out as he struggled for the high notes.

The 48-year-old, performing live for the first time since he was acquitted of child molestation charges in June, 2005, had been expected to sing his seminal hit "Thriller."

But to the huge disappointment of screaming fans, that was performed instead by young U.S. star Chris Brown.

Jackson looked uncomfortable at times as he was surrounded by excited young members of a gospel chorus on stage with him.

That did not stop supporters desperate to see their idol cheer his every move, especially when threw his black sequin jacket into the crowd.

The failure by the deposed King of Pop to demonstrate his voice and confidence were back to anywhere near their best was likely to raise further doubts about his ability to resurrect a career that has been on hold for years.

"I love you!" he shouted, before the World Music Awards 2006 ceremony he headlined wound up.

Earlier in the evening, Jackson was given the Diamond Award honoring artists who sell more than 100 million records.

Introducing Jackson, U.S. singer Beyonce said: "Tonight we are celebrating 25 years of 'Thriller'," referring to his seminal album. "If it wasn't for Michael Jackson I would never have ever performed. I love you, we all love you."

DOUBTS ABOUND

Jackson, who has been a virtual recluse for the last 17 months, thanked fans and his family, singling out his three children who have been with him during his stopover in London.

"I am greatly humbled by this award," said Jackson, who wore his jet black hair long and straight. "It was my dream that 'Thriller' would be the biggest-selling album ever ... and God has answered my prayers," he added.

Jackson's lifetime record sales tally is believed to be around 750 million, making him the most successful entertainer of all time.

Whether Wednesday's performance helps him on the road to professional recovery remains to be seen.

"I would say there's very little chance of him coming back from where he is," said Gareth Grundy, deputy editor of the Q music magazine, speaking before the show.

"I think people will always be fascinated by the freak show, and that's what's going on," he said. "I would categorize him as a celebrity as opposed to an artist."

Celebrities Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan were also at the Earls Court venue, where they were joined by hundreds of reporters eager to catch Jackson in action.

He has said he planned to move to Europe in a bid to resurrect his musical career and indicated he will release a new album in 2007.
