Mediocre show


Dutch television broadcasted Michael Jackson's Dangerous Tour tonight, filmed on October 1 1992 in Bucharest, so of course I was curious and decided to watch. I hate to say it, but I was terribly disappointed by his show. This was supposed to be one of the greatest performers is the world?

First of all, at least half of the show wasn't sung live. In fact, even a couple of ballads (Heal The World, Man In The Mirror) were lipsynched, and not that good either. There were many instances were Michael's mouth wasn't moving along with the words.

Secondly: the show was quite heavy on intro's, which in my opinion sort of take the energy down. I can watch a video at home, when I go to see a concert, I would like the artist to be on the stage as long as possible.

Also, the entire show was staged, with little or no room left for any spontaneous actions or words. This is a problem that Madonna shows suffer from as well, but for some reason, it seemed even worse on this show.

However, the worst thing is: the show just seemed a mbit messy. The stage setup wasn't particularly interesting, there wasn't enough coherence, and Michael just didn't seem very into it (which was probably true). For someone who called himself King Of Pop, this show was a real disgrace.

You must be some lonely,frustrated chap with a very small brain to write this kind of crap. Did u watch the show or the polio in your brain could not let you capture reality? Better do something for yourself other than writing useless things. You piece of shit.
Oh well i get it. You are some jealous white fagot.

Actually, everything I write in this review is quite objective, and fact-checkable, but I suppose you only hear what you want to hear, so what's the point of responding to you anyway.

Thanks by the way for reading my 'useless things'', as you so eloquently put it.

And by the way, 'faggot' is with double g, just so you know.
