    On a serious note though, I'd be surprised if the backers had proper insurance for the gigs as MJ was a major risk as it was so, as crass as it sounds, be checking the T&C's if you did get tickets.


    Nobody has tickets in hand yet to even know the t&c's yet. Just our Ticketmaster confirmations. Watch this space. No doubt the booking fees won't be refunded and hope the O2 doesn't go down as a result of reserving it for the months and months. Another insurance co. gone bust to come.

    It's all over the news that there are unconfirmed reports that he's died. Still no official confirmation yet.
    There are three types of people in this world - those who can count and those who can't.

    Definitely confirmed now, he has died.

    Still not confirmed yet. Still just rumours. Not that I could give a toss
    I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the Ramada/Days Inn BRG thread.

    Not a huge fan of his latest work but he did have some great songs in the 80's, and he gave a lot of pleasure to many people. RIP MJ

    Some people who have paid OTT for tickets via various ways will be even more gutted.
    I'm sure Michael isn't best pleased either.
    You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.

    Grew up with his music. Very sad. He will always live on through his music. I agree, a true legend who will never be forgotten xx
