If Michael Jackson ... a feel good post!
 
If Michael Jackson were to have a concert this year in the United States would you attend? Well it has been almost a decade since his last concert in the US, but MIKE is coming back!!!

I heard on 1010 wins that MJ is going to be having a concert later this year, I think in NYC, but I am not exactly sure (if anyone heard this please reply). I would be willing to see Mike, BUT I think the seats are going to be outrageously priced and the next turn off is his opening acts, one is Brittany (sp.) spears, I 4get the rest. So what do you think?

AKA2D '91 04-17-2001 06:49 PM

Girl, I don't think so! I lovedded Michael (michelle) back in the day. I saw him in concert with the J5 and as a solo artist in the 80's...don't think I want to see him in the 2K1(2)....

I'll Pass!

LadyAKA 04-17-2001 07:00 PM

What if he does the oldies for you? I am not his biggest fan, but he used to give the best performances ....

CrimsonTide4 04-17-2001 07:18 PM

I still PASS!
I'll pull out the old tapes, and such!

OhSoPrettyNikki 04-17-2001 07:36 PM

I Looooooooooooooooooooooove Michael and I'd definitely be in da house!

I'd go diggin' in the crates for all my old Michael buttons. Last I counted I had about 200 or so. Then I'd probably break out my "Beat it" jacket. Yes I wore that jacket in public. I swore that he could see me from the posters on my wall. he he he. I wouldn't care if I had to go by my dayum self, either!

Yall I love Mike and all but that dude scares me sometimes. He had on a white suit in an article and I couldn't tell where his neck ended and collar began! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

I think he has a brilliant mind as far as music goes but he hasn't displayed any of it these days. He's a musical pioneer, I give him that...But I miss the big nosed, brown skinned, realistic version.

Poplife 04-17-2001 09:51 PM

Hey I like Mike, but I'm too afraid to see him in person! Maybe they'll air it on HBO.

MJ in NYC..... where!!!!!

*****searching putting on her MJ radar with her favorite MJ song "Dirty Diana"*******

I will be there with bells on, I just hope this next album will be better than his last one http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

MaMaBuddha 04-18-2001 07:51 AM

maybe if mike gained some of the color he lost, i'd attend. right now he looks like casper.

i went to a concert back in the days where is performed songs from OFF THE WALL and THRILLER, that was mike i knew. even BAD was the bomb.

now he's writing songs about crying in moscow and blood on the dance floor??!?!?!? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

I saw him and his brothers during the Victory tour. (he was still Black back then) They put on a good show and I did have my "Beat it" jacket and white glove. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif I think I saw him and Prince in the same year.



Lil' bit 04-18-2001 02:08 PM

I might have to be at that concert. I heard on the news as well that MJ is going to be touring once again. I like Michael Jackson. I can't be worried about how he looks and all, b/c that is a bit scary. However, I love his music and I know he will jam. But, if the tickets are way too much, I may have to pass.. Otherwise, I'm at that!!

On another note, I thought (and I may be ASSumming) but I remember a thread saying that Debbie Allen was NOT an AKA. Can a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha please verify.....

September 7th @ MSG, that is Madison Square Garden in NYC ...

Funny thing I learned on the news today those acts that Mike plans to have open up for him claim they knew nothing about touring with him. I wonder if this is going to happen at all now.

I was 10 years old when we took a trip to Jacksonville, Fl. to attend the Victory Tour at the Gator Bowl. It was awesome! I was dressed up in the "Thriller" jacket and white glove, but I look terrible in those pictures now.

So what do you think?

Actually it's been only 4 years since Michael had his last concert in the US. He sold out two performances in January 1997 in Honolulu. On both nights the stadium was packed to capacity. The majority of the tickets cost $65 each and it got cheaper as you moved into the nosebleed sections.

I enjoyed the concert as a whole since I've been a big Michael fan since childhood. What I didn't like about the concert was his strains of "I Love Youuuuuuu"s that I could've sworn went on for hours. I kept thinking to myself "I paid $65 to hear him say I love you?".

Still...I went because, well...he's Michael.

Thanks for the correection I got the information off the radio ....

Ideal08 I will email you ...sorry it has been so long!! Skee Wee.


dirtymike1906 05-29-2001 05:06 PM

My 2 cents: All the icons are worth seeing (well, Whitney might still be a little overpriced, if you consider her an icon). Michael's last broad U.S. tour was the "Bad" tour in '88-'89, and he definitely came with the real. Forget about the silly stuff; it's when he reaches into the J5, Off the Wall, and Thriller archives that you become a fan again. And of course with his money, you know his sets are the very best. Plus, this may be his last, as he'll be 42 or 43 in August. Actually, him and his brothers are supposed to be in the studio right now and are going to tour later this year.

Speaking of 42 or 43, did anyone hear today that Prince(who will be 42 or 43 in June) just became a Jehovah Witness and has promised to no longer use profanity? What is going on?

JadeRein 05-29-2001 08:54 PM

I read that in yesterday's newspaper. It was said that he felt, as a rolemodel, that if he didn't use profanity then the young people who listen to him would not. It was also said that his lyrics would not be as sentual and erotic as they have been in the past.

bellebeaua 05-30-2001 03:35 PM

Lady AKA,
I read in the latest issue of VIBE, with Mary J. Blige looking stunning on the cover, that Michael will be performing in New York during the month of September. I think I read another note of your which said that you went to Hofstra University, which means you are in NY too. So, hello my fellow Newyorker!

I LOVE MICHAEL JACKSON!! He's got a CD coming out this year entitled 'Seven'. Nobody knows what the seven stands for, but the artwork for the CD cover consists of Michael's name spelled in the shape of a 7. I don't know if he has seven tracks on the CD or what. But he's had some MAJOR artists working on this CD with him. Will.I.Am is just one of the many. It's rumored that the debut single will be released in September, but the actual CD won't be released until November 2007. I like Mike. :D
