    Is there a possibility the concerts may still go ahead but with a stand-in or other big name?

    This has happened before when George Michael stood in for Freddie Mercury in Queen after he died of AIDS.

    Would anyone else be quite the same?

    A little unfortunate that they just released more tickets.

    It is very sad, as he was a legend.

    but it does make you wonder, after all the rumours that the the tour wasnt going to happen

    RIP Michael.

    I always questioned the 50 date tour, even someone who is superfit like Madonna would have a problem doing 50 dates.

    Hope he is remerbered for his music.

    It would not be the event you had paid for. I certainly would not be interested in going now.
