2002 Apollo performance.

Because of copyright issues, C-SPAN won't release the full video. Do you wish more than anything for that to happen?

*First post btw*

It would be nice. Totally agree. I've only ever seen still images from this performance.

 

[Michaels Lover]

well, it would be nice to have it, and of course I want it. but I wouldn't say I wish for it more than anything. there are other things I would rather have first

Leaving aside the ‘Dangerous’ performance itself, only audio footage has already been available from the rest of the show:

I would love to have it.

 

[Ms. BlueGangsta]

I literally want to see everything. :yes:

 

[#MJforever57]

Now that we my never see happen.

Why was it on C-SPAN in the first place? Of all the channels it could've been on, why freaking C-SPAN?

this and the United We Stand performance in full would be great to see.. The United We Stand performance I was getting close to finding where it was until (I forget what) I just stopped.. I was sent from one person to the next and just I think eventually I dropped the ball..

I can say with my experience of that though, its not impossible to get.. these are MJ's last live performances

Apollo 2002 was Michael's final ever performance so I would love to see the footage of it someday. The guitar solo during Black Or White is absolutely brilliant. And I also read somewhere that Diana Ross joined Michael during the performance of Heal The World. Diana joining Michael on stage during his final performance. That's so cool. I hope we get to see the footage of this event very soon.

 

[Themidwestcowboy]

Yes, I want this and Man In The Mirror from United We Stand

 

[Galactus123]

I hope they include the footage in Invincible re-release at some point.

American Bandstand and the Democratic Convention happened around the same time. I'm thinking that they're both the same basic performance. I would really like to see everything else though.

The actual C*SPAN clip on YouTube opens with an introduction from President Clinton. MJ performed at Clinton's inaugural ball back in '93, so it's nice that Bill introduced his performance. If they ever release the footage officially, I'd like to see that included too.

It's kind of poetic: one of MJ's first BIG stage appearances was with the J5 at the Apollo Theater back in 1967. 35 years later, he returned to the Apollo for what would be his last performance (not counting This Is It rehearsals or the 2006 World Music Awards).

^ The Dangerous performance was the same (aside from any spontanous) movements of course.. But at Bandstand he only performed Dangerous correct? Because at the Nation Convetion there was more.

 

[Michaels Lover]

I don't care if the performances are the same, I want it all
