Looking for pics. Michael in front of the crowd

With all these crowd pictures there remains one burning question. Where is Waldo?

Ditto Michael. :D

Whoa! I don't think I've seen this before... is this from the Moonwalker set? Looks like the hideout from the end of the Smooth Criminal segment.
Good question. I have no idea. Can't even remember whether I found the photo here on the board or online. I was on a mega photo hunting sesh last night and it all started to get a bit blurred, lol. If I did find the photo on the board I'm pretty sure there was no info attached to it bc I usually read anything like that. But you're right, it does look like a film set, doesn't it? It's so big, for starters.
 
oh, Michael trying to speak German 🤣 I think he said "Wie geht es dir" (how are you). "Ich liebe dich" (I love you).
I want to add, I always found it odd that Michael must've been told these are the translations to "How are you?" and "I love you".
He's talking to a crowd, not a single person so the correct German tranlations would be "Wie geht es euch?" and "Ich liebe euch".
For non-German speakers: You (singular) = dich vs. You (plural) = euch.
 

Rome, 1988.

Love it when I get to see shots of the crowd from the stage.

Best shots of Michael, imo? 3m 45s.

@wendijane

yeah, I also wondered about that. I have heard him say 'Ich liebe dich' twice, though he did correct it one time, I think in one of the HIStory concerts.

Yeah, I think it's the best one I've come across. I guess part of it is the novelty value bc we don't usually seen that type of footage from that angle. But I also think it's genuinely the best of its type I've seen. It's a really cool piece of footage, gave me a much better 'feel' for the show and what it's like for Michael performing in front of a massive crowd like that. The editing on this one is fab. I find it way more interesting seeing the show from this angle although, obvs, I wouldn't want *all* of the gig footage to be from behind.

The low point is IJCSLY - Sheryl's screechy voice. Eek! Could do without that. I am not keen on her voice at all.

Especially Michael on the boat
Oh, tell me about it. Fabulous! I love the fact that it's such a quiet oasis in the middle of the craziness around him. And he looks amazing. Michael chewing gum. Michael wearing his classic Ray Bans. Michael looking cool as ... whatever :D

I do a LOT of replay at that point, lol.

You're so welcome!
 
Wonderful picture. Interesting to see a a black audience dominating. One should find similar pictures for the victory tour and see the difference.
 
He is so close to the crowd in those shots very cool, maybe it was still somewhat possible before thriller. I assume this is near the end of the concert. And that hat is that something he picked up from the crowd? I remember him wearing British police helmet in 79 during a concert in London.

All these shots look like he is in a spur of the moment. These things aren’t supposed to be happening.
