1998 was a very different time. Maaaan.

No, shithead. During the whole set.

And I didn't say it was lame. I just said that my experience with it was less than ideal.

So, If you're interested. Somebody leaked this recently. Michael Jackson on the Victory tour with his brothers. So this is shortly after Thriller was released. Height of his powers n all that. (The COOLEST intro to a gig. Even has lightsabers!)
Even just watch the intro and first song guy had so much talent.
I hate looking at this stuff. You're happy for a minute. Then you realise. Then you're robbed.

If someone can embed it I'd be thankful. Can't do it from here.

It says it's from the Destiny Tour in 1979, so that'd be right after Off the Wall...

His voice was so amazing from like 1979-1988. Even when he'd get aggressive it would sound so effortless and pure.

Says victory tour on the intro but I'm not 100% about time though Thriller songs are played.

Sorry. This is the destiny clip. The one above is still better by far.

Ahh, ok, that makes more sense. The Destiny Tour one was pretty good. I'll have to watch more of it later after I watch the Victory Tour one.

Perhaps you should work on your sentence structure and context so people can understand what you're on about then. And it's a bit rich for a self-aggrandizing dumb cunt like you to be calling anyone a shithead don't you think.

The Victory tour ruled. Yeah, I saw that shit! I was pretty young, but that's a good time to see MJ in concert. He rocked, but it was in a football stadium so every seat was a nosebleed ticket. That's probably the thing I remember most. Oh, and the outrageous cost of tickets, which got a lot of bad publicity. There was a lottery and you could only buy a block of four tickets. Total cost for four tickets? $125.
