I was surprised to see this show getting even booked to big arenas in Europe, let alone the shows being sold out like that. I suppose companies really do rush to buy the tickets for their employees to just about any show that's coming from overseas to these shores. Michael's been dead for 3½ years now, which seems like an unreasonably long period of time for people to be able to milk with his death like this.

It's not that bad as the songs are strong enough, the arrangements stand the test of time and the lightshow fits the whole thing.

Must beat living on welfare and washing car windows. shrug

spoken like a post THRILLER/KOP MJ FAN who resorts to putting down others and accept rumors that were about as bogus as the comments that follow... a real trooper

this is why this story has ended with such tragedy

do anything and everything to discredit something to prop up "the king of pop" when it was really the king of pop who was in dire straits towards the end.....because his "mighty" fans led him on a path to self destruction

oh and let me not forget, the brothers careers were sabotaged when they were in position to craft successful careers in their own right

the law runneth forward and back

for the strength of the pack is the wolf

and the strength of the wolf is the pack

You're not the only one. Obviously Michael is missing and they could use a strong lead. They are really more backgroundsingers, but other than that... yeah, it's entertaining and i'm also looking forward to see them in 2 months.

Geez. Why don't you give it just up? Spouting the same bs time after time is not making your wishful thinking become the truth.

I'll say what I wanna say when I wanna say it

bite those appples

nobody, I mean NOBODY spews more BS than the ones who uphold the lies

the wrong people are placed in position to tell this story for if the right people were allowed to do so, they would wash all of this dicrepid right down the flush where it belongs

and then we would see who's really who and who's really not all along.......

Randy would be a good addition, anyone know why he's not performing?. Also Jermaine was at Motown when they did Can You Feel It, Blame it on the Boogie etc. so he might not be too familiar with these songs. I assume he does his Motown solo tracks on the tour too like 'Lets Get Serious' et al. As for a lead singer, it would be even more difficult for the J5 to replace Michael than it must have been for Queen to bring in a new lead singer instead of Freddie. Both MJ and Freddie Mercury were brilliant performers and in Michael's case, both a talented singer & dancer. If they brought in like Ne-Yo or someone like that as a lead singer people would definitely complain. Maybe they need to get it together (no pun intended) vocally and try & get Randy in and go from there but I don't think from watching the clips they are bad vocally, not the greatest, but most performers when they reach a certain age don't sound the same. I watched the 'Pet Sounds' live by Brian Wilson and whilst his vocals aren't the same, the audience were really enjoying it and I think thats the whole thing which people forget, that music is for people to enjoy and let the critics critique it.
