    I wish they would tour with the LOVE show instead of this crap. I want to hear Beatles songs while girls bend over in weird ways and make me think things with the other head.

    They are doing a Nationwide tour in 2011 then in 2012 I believe it hits Vegas for daily shows.

    Presale for Toyota center just ended.


    Is there a high demand for this? Will I be kicking myself for not getting any tickets?

    Review? Was it too Cirque like the Elvis one was before they revamped it? Was it an edge of your seat rocking into it experience, or was it a sit back and watch cool stuff? I guess it can be both. Any storyline like KA or are these separate sets like most Cirque shows.

    There aren't too many times where I literally laugh out loud, but this was one of them.

    I thought it did a good balance of cirque and MJ video/highlights.
    Some of the stuff you've seen in the "this is it" movie. There is a main character, some MJ mime fan and bubbles.
    Maybe they could have got rid of bubbles. The story line is something like some fans go to Neverland and get transported to all these MJ videos.

    Lots of Jackson 5 stuff, early MJ stuff. There were some cool technical stuff like in the beatles. There were also some slow parts of MJ talking saying some poems and talking about healing the world. Highlights were Dangerous/Smooth Criminal, Billie Jean, Thriller, Can't stop loving you.

    There were a bunch or rare songs like some stuff from his ghost movie that i didn't recognize. They also did Ben.

    There was no tree like in the trailer when I saw the show. Must have done it for some reason. maybe it blocks off viewing so they canned it.

    My dad is a huge MJ fan and raised me to be one also. I bought the family tickets to the Houston show as a Christmas present when they first went on sale. After listening to the soundtrack, I can't wait to see the show live.
