I know. That's why a trip to the UK doesn't seem all that bad right now.

I expect all of the shows to be sold out by April

The org has people from the UK, Canada, and the States getting tickets, but if you go to MJ forums, you see fans from Japan, Cambodia, Romania, Switzerland, China, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, South America, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Italy.... all around the world


It amazes me

Michael Jackson is a global icon, why does it still amaze you? It's expected. He's Michael Jackson, dammit.

Yeah, but it still amazes me. All these people from all over the world for this one guy, that says alot

I have been a die-hard Prince fan since 1981, but also adore MJ. These concerts are going to be different to the prince shows, MJ will do the same show every night, i am just hoping he does sing live.
I have my tickets, we've waited a long time for this!!

Michael has been more theatrical and with Prince, he's improvises his set more

Michael will most likely change the set list after a couple of shows like he's done in the past

from the live album, the Triumph tour's set list was

Can You Feel It
Things I Do For You
Off The Wall
Ben
Heartbreak Hotel
She's Out Of My Life
I Want You Back
ABC
The Love You Save
I'll Be There
Rock With You
Lovely One
Band Interlude
Workin' Day And Night
Don't Stop Til You Get Enough
Shake Your Body Down To The Ground

but throughout that tour, certain songs were rearranged and replaced. Songs like Mama's Pearl, Never Can Say Goodbye, Enjoy Yourself, Show You The Way To Go, and Blame It On The Boogie were also performed

he's done similar things throughout his career

THE UP-SIDE OF PRESALE

Well let me preface this by saying I didn't get a presale ticket. But it may be a mixed blessing (a guy can dream can't he). You see what has traditionally happened with pre-sales is they set aside a block of tickets (one or two sections in the arenea under each price point). Once this allocation is exhausted they move onto the next.

HOWEVER this does not mean the shows are sold out (yet). It just means the allocation has.

In my many years of experience I have picked up better seats in the general release than in a presale as it depends on what sections they sell.

But to all you lucky fans who got tickets, consider yourself mighty lucky. This will be the hottest tickets of the year.

True.

30 Shows - And Counting...

WE HAVE NOW SOLD OUT OF THE PRESALE TICKET ALLOCATION FOR 30 SHOWS. MICHAEL JACKSON HAS AGREED TO ADD MORE SHOWS, SO YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO GET TICKETS ON PRESALE.

We know that many of you have experienced frustrating delays so far and we apologise for these problems.

Demand for tickets is unprecedented, so please be patient and do keep trying.

If you have not yet been successful in purchasing tickets with your code, it WILL still work.

If you have registered but you haven’t yet received a presale code – there’s still a chance you will receive one tomorrow, so keep your eyes peeled and keep checking your inbox!

I will do my best to go there, though I think doing this will rape my wallet but its a michael jackson show

from evey corner of the earth registered for tickets

When Michael Jackson performs, everyone wanna be in on it.

Timmy84 said:

Are you going there?

I'm ticketless still, if these had gone on sale just one week later all would be fine. oh well, seen him at his best, i'll console myself with that!

Still might try, but strangely not that bothered if i can't make it. i'm sure there's a good chance one will be televised.

seeingvoices12 said:

Nah, can't afford it, lol.

Marrk said:

Or least shown on the internet somewhere.

Marrk said:

Your ass better keep trying! You're supposed to take your camcorder!

Swa said:

omg. well he's proving all the haters wrong.

but seriously tho, is there anyone on earth who think he will perform
all nights and not cancel a single show?

IstenSzek said:

Alot of fans are skeptical but we're hoping for the best

Timmy84 said:

Try to steal money from a bank if it didn't work out ask your boss about it and if he refused, all you need is to



on the face.

I got better ones

Just remember its a PRE-SALE sellout not the full show - so I would hope that tickets would be still available for all shows on Friday during the general sale.

Fingers crossed.

Still need to get mine.

As for the spacing of the shows - well with a show every two nights you would think it is doable, but as a fan I would like to see a few days break every 7 shows or so. At least with no travel there might be less stress and pressure put on MJ.

UPDATED: Just noticed that there is a week off between 3rd August and 10th August - wise move. Good to see some time off being allowed to recouperate, and also space to slot in extra shows *should* a show have to be postponed.
