    Saw him at wembley, brilliant concert would recommend anyone with the ticket money to go along.

    For £300, I'd expect him to perform in my lounge, cook me dinner and wash up afterwards.

    I think Michael Jackson did a series of concerts at the old Wembley stadium back in the late eighties.

    He's not going to be the same. I appreciate during his prime he was a fantastic performer, his music videos are still worth a watch. Even that film where he turns into a spaceship or something...well ok, maybe not the film.

    However the most recent performance was in 2006 and he hardly sung, he had a large plethora of backing singers and I can only imagine things have got worse since. Also, with plastic surgery it can massively affect how you sing (or vocals generally) so it's no real surprise. Supposedly he also cancelled his American Idol performance because of stage fright, although it's rumour by the press rather than anything solid.

    I would love it if he was as good as he used to be, even as half as good, but I think most of those who have booked tickets will be severely disappointed.
