I don't know the whole story,but I think it's wrong for an artist to cancel a show,make up an excuse,and not reschedule.To use the lame excuse "scheduling conflicts" is wrong.I remember when this was going on,one of Janet's biggest fans on this site,referred to her tour as the "Fuck Witchu Tour" | |

@mjscarousal I don't need a further source, as you've already provided it. As you can read in the article, the promoter clearly was ready to reschedule, but it was Janet, who didn't find the time in her schedule to do her job and thus the tour ended after the last scheduled show in New York. It was her decision, not the promoter's, without any concern for her crew, which, according to Rowe's story, she was so concerned about them losing income. There was no second US leg planned or announced, also no european leg was planned or announced. They did try to do Japan in '09, but postponed/cancelled at the end of January, 2 weeks before it was supposed to happen, blaming the economy. | |

LL was just the opening act though but IMO I think he decided to drop out of the tour because of all the cancellations. It was becoming messy and unreliable (can't say I blame him). I pray that Janet gets better because this go around it does sound serious. I hope she follows through with the rescheduling because I have tickets to see her. [Edited 12/27/15 20:02pm] | |

Why in your opinion do you think she could not find the time? I am asking because based on Rowe's claims, MJ bodyguard's claims (they tell the same story of how Leonard and Janet show up at Michael's house begging him to tour with brothers and her) and from Janet's own mouth she insists she wants to tour with her brothers. This all occured in 2008. So if she is trying to tour with her brothers and she is making public statements that she wants to tour with them soon why can't she fulfill the obligations for her own tour? Don't you think that should be more of a priority?
According to wikpedia, all her 2009 shows for the RockWitchu tour were canceled period. Her tour started in September of 2008 and ended November of 2008. It was suppose to go all the way in 2009 but all the shows suddenly got canceled due to Janet's "sickness" She did not do a show in 2009.
I don't think his claims are fishy because he along with Michaels bodyguards and Raymon Bain Michaels old publicist tell the same story of how Janet, Leonard and the other Jackson siblings showed up at Michaels house unnannouced in an attempt to get him to tour with them. What I find fishy is the fact that Janet was trying to tour with her brothers at the same time she had a tour of her own to fullfill Why is she begging Michael to tour when she has her own tour obligations to fullfill? Then she suddenly becomes sick and cancels all her shows. Thats whats fishy.
Janet eventually went on to do her Number Ones tour in which she played theaters. I can see why Live Nation brought her back. Janet played theaters and IMO they knew she could sell out those smaller venues considering she had a hard time selling out arenas in her RockWitch U tour. The receipts are all on Wiki. She did not sell out any of those venues in her Rock Wit U tour and some of the arenas were 60% full so its perfectly plausible the tour more than likely got canceled due to low ticket sells/low demand. | |

@mjscarousal Seriously? Are you really that dense? Just read my posts. They tried to talk him into touring with them from 2007 until 2008. I never disputed that. And that is also not my point. My point is that alleged "dropping" business. That is fishy and doesn't fit into any time line. I don't care about the other crap, so stop dragging all that other non topical shit into it. But to make it clear for you for once and for all. When she finally realised, that he won't tour with them, she went on her own tour and either got sick for real or got sick by looking at her ticket sales, which were not as good as on her previous tours and those ticket sales likely influenced her decision to not reschedule those shows. The "scheduling conflict" was, in my opinion, bs to save face, as you say, she was on tour, so what could be more important than to fullfill her touring obligations? So obviously she gave up on her own tour. And again, other than those US and Japan shows no other shows were ever announced or likely planned out to be cancelled. When I talked to members of the crew in DC, they didn't know whether they would come to Europe and it kinda was obvious that any plans for further US shows wouldn't make too much sense due to the, in their eyes, underwhelming ticket sales of that one leg they did. And because you clearly can't or don't want to understand what I'm saying I will stop it now for real. | |

It appears you are the one that is densed because you didn't read the context in why I asked that question. I think this time you should stop for real since you can't maturely give an intelligent response without being disrespectful. It was funny at first but now its getting kinda ridiculous. Nobody attacked you for all this hostility you are giving and considering the fact that you haven't backed up any of your opinions with concrete evidence or sources. [Edited 12/27/15 22:54pm] | |

she was not 'dropped' by live nation, the tour was canceled because of her. she worked with live nation on the ucap tour and is currently working with them. what other sources is there to back up what rowe says? the bodyguards said they dont know what was discussed when the family visited michael becasue they were not in the room. | |

Well your asking the same questions I had. Why was Janet trying to tour with her brothers when she had a tour of her own to fullfill? She went on Larry King of 2008 insisting that she wanted to tour with her brothers and that Michael was the only one holding out. She repeatedly made statements discussing a Jackson tour during the Rock Witchu Tour. If Janet wanted to tour with her brothers, why didn't she tour with them after MJ passed? IMO, she only wanted to tour with her brothers in 08 because she was dropped by Live Nation and imo she was only going to do it if MJ was involved. She could have toured with after MJ passed but she didn't. [Edited 12/28/15 2:57am] | |

That meeting doubled as an intervention. Mj was in no condition of touring. Because they found out he was under the influence and was in no shape or form ready to go out on anybodies tour(his shocking appearance was rail thin). Unless it was on his own merits. Which turned into the 02 Arena appearances that never happen. The one that he agreed to do so he can break 's record. Sadly I don't think he would have gotten through that tour. It wasn't meant to be. I call bullshit about the so-called "intervention". Anyone with a semblance of rationality knows that a family member wouldn't BADGER the #%*^ out of a person to do a MAJOR tour IF that person was in as bad a shape as Janet claimed. Does that even make any sense to you? Damn, just use common sense, even if you are a Janet Stan. There was no intervention. Btw, Michael didn't agree to do the THis Is It tour, to break Prince's record. He was going to do that anyway. I think the promoter said he jokingly said something about Prine's 21 nights and "breaking" that record. The bottomline is that Michael did break Prince's record by a DOUBLE amount, and could have sold out 100 shows, if he had allowed the promoters to continue. The promoters said that they had sold enough tickets for another 50 shows. The fact that these shows never happened, because of Michael's murder, will NEVER diminish the FACT that Michael SOLD out 50 shows with NO PROMOTION, NO NEW ALBUM, NOTHING except the sheer force of his name, legacy and career merit. Again, YOU are the one who keeps bringing this up and when MJ fans defend him, people in this org.want to snip the discussion Or you start whining about MJ fans, when it is you who iniates the debate, with your constant Michael comparisons to Janet or Prince. I really think that you do this intentionally. | |

And better stop the MJ talk before some supermod sweeps in and deletes everything or locks it down. My comments were directed at Kool. He/she ALWAYS brings up Michael in discussions about Janet or Prince. Yet, the mods don't seem to mind until MJ fans defend, disagree or debate what he/she says. It is usually not MJ fans who bring Michael into a discussion of Janet or Prince, it is usually KOOLMUZIQ. He/she does it on a constant/annoying basis. | |

I really think that you do this intentionally. My last comment about this(btw I do love Mj). Mj didn't break 's record! Because sadly he was never able to play those shows. So it doesn't count. Plus refunds were issued. Frank Dileo did confirm before he passed away that Mj was obsessed with breaking 's record. Which is why he agreed to do ALL those dates. Even though I still feel had MJ lived he still would have NEVER completed them. He wasn't strong enough. Which is why he originally passed on the Jackson five reunion tour. MY last comment about this. YES, Michael did break Prince's record at the 02 and that's the bottomline. The FACT is that Michael SOLD OUT 50 shows( promoters said he sold enough for 100 shows). The tragic fact that he was murdered before he had a chance to do those shows does not take away from the FACT that he did sell out 50 shows. Nothing is going to alter that FACT.

Yes. And why wouldn't he have completed those shows? He didn't die because of exhaustion, he died because he was killed by his doctor. | |

If Michael was this raving drug addict, why was the family begging him to tour? Surely they would know he was not fit to tour if that was honestly the case. The whole family is full of bullshit. Those meetings were meetings to get Michael to TOUR. They were not interventions. | |
