Since this is an RIP thread and that's really enough deep..I am capable of compassion for his father too, but that doesn't mean I can't question his behavior. Old, medicated or not,whatever. We will see how his behavior will continue to play out, especially if it's true that he was left out of the will. Ok? Maybe it will be good-and that would be great.

I am not "tolerant" of Michael's behavior either, and you have enough smarts to know that already. The man is dead- so I have nothing more to say about it other than I hope he finds the peace in death that he seemingly never had in life, and I feel so sorry for his kids.

CBS is doing a 48 Hours show on Michael tonight.

I find it disgusting, Michael hasn't even been buried. And "Family" is disputing his will.

first, I'll say that I'm a little tipsy after tonight, but tomorrow is Canada Day, so a lot of bars in Toronto are having fun nights. A bunch of friends and I went out to a place called Sneaky Dee's tonight because it was a Michael Jackson appreciation night. Let me tell you that it was the most fun I've ever had at a bar ever! I'm not a prude or a stick in the mud either. I love to have fun, but tonight was something different all together. I got there early, but by 11:30, there was a massive line up out the door. They played everything from ABC to You Rock My World and everyone was loving it (and ended with everyone singing along to Man in the Mirror

). There was so much energy. It was completely insane. Everyone just having a good time and dancing like crazy to MJ. I was telling my girlfriend (whos 7 years younger and doesnt quite get it) that something like this will NEVER happen again. What musician can you think of that is so massive and brings all different types of people together like Michael Jackson does? I dont think someone like that exists anymore. This is for real a unique time and I really hope that Michael Jackson is the soundtrack for the summer of '09. It was really a special night and I'll never forget it. For fellow Torontonians, tomorrow night at Dundas Square, apparently something similar will happen and we'll have another MJ dance party. If you missed out on tonight, dont miss out on tomorrow. I hope its as good and there should be a tonne more people. I'm so happy I decided to go out tonight.

Exactly! And it's not just races, but ages as well. We had a Michael Jackson power hour (

) at work on Monday, no drinking, but everyone (except for my boss because he's a Debbie Dower and says that he has heard too much MJ voluntarily already) was having a great time with it. Our ages in the office range from 69 to 23, and everyone was singing along. I don't think you'll be able to find that ever again. MJ was just cool to listen to, nevermind your age.

MooMoo! · 07-01-2009, 09:27 AM

Sad news indeed. I have the horrible feeling, had it not happened, now, the tour would have done him in. I spose in one respect its better it happened now than mid stage or something.

Also, I was looking though his auction a few weeks/months ago when he was selling off his stuff, DAMN he had the best arcade in the world! Loads of old games and stuff. I'd have quite happily gone round to his house as a kid, allegations or not.

Take photos! Or better yet, video!

gvox · 07-01-2009, 11:56 AM

I'll be there, for sure, already got lots of ppl interested! I'll shoot some stuff Elizabeth, for sure! It's being hosted by a dj who's really renowned for excellent mixes, so it should be crazy (Starting from Scratch, kindof a local dj celeb here)

Tiger Edge · 07-01-2009, 01:52 PM

TMZ, as usual, has a pdf copy of his will. In it he names Katherine as legal guardian, and in the event of her death...

Diana Ross.

wut?
