Chris Martin – no tickets for Michael Jackson’s London O2 concerts
Posted by: | Comments‘The Daily Mirror’, that hateful UK tabloid newspaper, has reported that Chris Martin from Coldplay was unable to buy tickets for Michael’s concerts for himself, as they were sold out!
The Coldplay star, who is a massive Michael Jackson fan, moaned: “I was looking at it on the internet and thought, ‘I’d better buy some for myself’ and I couldn’t. They were totally sold out. To sell out like that is a testament to talent. It is just amazing to sell out 50 shows in one city in a big arena. It’s the biggest comeback since Lazarus. It’s good news – but not for me.”
3D version of ‘Thriller’ and Michael crying in excitement
Posted by: | CommentsCEO of AEG live, Randy Phillips, has been speaking to Sky News about the forthcoming Michael Jackson concerts. He also speaks about Jackson bursting into tears when he heard the concerts have sold out.
Randy Phillips, CEO of AEG was interviewed by Sky News in his hotel suite. During the interview he said that when he saw and heard the response to the announcement of ten concerts, and saw the scramble to snap up the tickets, he rang Michael to tell him that they would have to increase the number of concerts to satisfy the demand. Very quickly the number increased to thirty and when a further twenty were added he again called Michael, who was “blown away”, and cried with emotion at the news of the complete sell out of the tickets.
Mr. Phillips explained that he could spend two years in the U.K. and still not satisfy all the demand. He also promised that Michael would be made extremely comfortable during his stay in England, and his life would be as normal as possible.
He said that he was stunned by the reaction of the fans, which was beyond any of his expectations and that 93% of the ticket buyers live in the UK.
Along with the concerts, he added that Michael is also interested in making a 3D version of ‘Thriller’, which could be shown at Halloween, but could also take up to three years to make.
