I can understand why his record sales are up and I can understand why he could easily sell out 50 nights. He has been away for a long time & people want to see him again.

But he's been living off his back catalogue for over a decade now and I don't see how he can sustain it past these gigs. I mean how many times would even the most diehard Jacko fan need to buy Thriller.

It's what happens after these gigs that'll define how his career goes.

And farewell tours sell more tickets. Just ask Ozzy Osbourne or The Rolling Stones and they don't seem to be giving up anytime soon.

Thats not a comeback then, its a farewell... damn this is a banal argument.

It never was a comeback really, its just that seemed to be the word you were using. Oh yeah, if you werent already aware he's booked the gigs as a farewell to his fans and at least as of right now there are no more scheduled. I think, health providing there will be more though. I doubt he would just want to do a run in England and go nowhere else.

At least I can understand your point now though if you were under the impression this was the start of something rather than the end of something. :)

Why is it a scandal... did he actually ever get convicted of anything indecent? I don't like MJ that much, and think he is one of the most quietly pompous people in the world... but if he isn't a criminal then he has the same right to adopt as you and I do. As well as being subject to the same scrutiny from the adoption agencies... there is no real scandal then, really...

i think he is an odd character but he's a hell of a performer though.

Odd character is an understatement... a fruit loop is closer to the mark...

Michael couldn't get it back since Invincible. It was horrible and I think he just doesn't fit into the music scene anymore. This so-called "comeback" is just money into his pockets cause he's broke. Don't get me wrong, I like his older music but come on, seriously?

He has been losing ground since the first round of molestation charges... ground I don't think anyone in his position could have ever regained, regardless of their guilt or innocence...

Michael Jackson is HIStory.

SHUT UP...is that Whatsitoosit??? For realz??? where you been?
