Im not making anything up
Order the book Papa Joe's Boys and the section about Michael towards the end of the book, he started saying back in 1981 that he would tour no more after the Triumph Tour. It's right there in that book
Michael puts that out there to build up anticipation down the road about whether or not he will ever tour again. He said that after the Victory Tour, the Bad Tour, the Dangerous Tour, and the History Tour
I didn't say he was never goinf to tour again after 1989, I said he was never going to America, North America again after 89
I don't believe that. The allegations/trial hindered Michael from touring. I have no doubt at all if Michael had toured the U.S. Again, he would have set records, just like he did with the Bad tour. I also believe that when he brought the This Is It tour (yes, I believe that he would have eventually brought it here) to America, it would have been a total sell-out. Even with all of the crap thrown at him, no new album to promote, Michael did what no other artist in history has done or will ever do, HE SOLD OUT 50 SHOWS in ONE CITY. According to those connected to the tour, there were enough tickets sold , to sell out ANOTHER 50 shows.
When he came to my city during the Bad tour, he sold out 3 shows and could have easily sold out another 3 or 4 shows. I've never seen anything like it before in my life. Throngs of people showed up outside of the arena HOPING that more tickets would be released. When they came out and announced that no more tickets would be sold, Grown MEN and women were crying. This was on the night of the third show and it had been rumored that more tickets would be released and people actually showed up at the arena and were waiting outside. Things are much different now and there is no way that people would be allowed to gather outside of an arena in that manner. Michael NEVER lost his drawing power.
