@cb2024 asks in terms of performance (dancing, etc), rather than in terms of audio/video quality.Gothenburg is the one with the best A/V quality I believe?
It's between Gothenburg, Copenhagen, and Kuala Lumpur. He was really feeling himself those shows.Gothenburg is the one with the best A/V quality I believe?
For many years, all we had was Munich 1997 as it was shown on TV and tapped and circulated in the fan community. History tour footage like Munich 1997 was cherished because we didnt have access like now adays to so much concert footage.I can tell you one thing. It's NOT Munich 1997. I really wish people would stop using this concert to represent the HIStory Tour.
I was there, saw him I'm 92 too in Landsdowne Rd, amazingThe best one for me is Dublin, Ireland July 1997, as it was the first time I saw Michael and the first time I met fans in real life and became part of the fan communities.
I feel like most of the 97 shows are slower.Apparently in some shows he dances much slower compared to others. Not seen the proof of it myself.
Great choices I pretty much agree. For Brunei being close to the end of the 96 leg he sounds fanastic and is still really energetic. The quality for that concert is also really great.I can tell you one thing. It's NOT Munich 1997. I hate how that show is always used to represent the HIStory Tour.
Anyways the best HWT shows IMO are:
Brunei 1996
Bucharest 1996 (There were some tech issues but MJ's performance was fantastic, also it has the red Thriller jacket which was a nice bonus)
Kuala Lumpur 1996
Basel 1997
Munich is definitley one of my favorites. It's one of the best concertsI can tell you one thing. It's NOT Munich 1997.
well, if you want I can elaborate.@Moonstreet, so according to you, only these fans who experienced Michael Jackson in real time and they saw him physically (in concerts, appearances, etc) are entitled to discuss about him.
We have already got your point, so it is not really necessary to repeat it so often.
The 1996 Prague concert in particular is saddled with many on stage errors, such as:I'd say Gelsenkirchen or Bremen. Even Bucharest or Prague.
That is a faulty logic on your part.well, if you want I can elaborate.
After death fans who were adults in 2009, who were over the age of 21, who didnt care about Michael on Wednesday 24 June 2009 but were on tv and flooded the fan community on Friday 26 June 2009 are the people who I have issues with.
Adults over the age of 21 who lived in California / LA and who had access to car and the internet who didnt care about Michael and who had no interest in the fan communities on Wednesday 24 June 2009 but somehow managed to get to his house and to Neverland on June 26 2009 are the people who I have issues with.
Basically anyone who was an adult and had access to the internet or a car and who had no interest in Michael, was not a fan when he was alive but is now the "biggest fan" I have issues with.
Said with L.O.V.E
The 1996 Prague concert in particular is saddled with many on stage errors, such as:
- Michael Jackson stumbles while executing the 'Billie Jean' moonwalk dance move
- Michael Jackson again stumbles while executing the 'They Don't Care About Us' sidewalk dance move
- Michael Jackson utters a swear word at the beginning of 'Scream'
- There are band/instruments errors during the 'Off The Wall' Medley
- There are band/instruments errors also during 'Beat It'
The 1996 Bucharest concert in particular is also saddled with many on stage errors, such as:
- Michael Jackson finds it very difficult to take off certain parts of his gold outfit during the first 3 songs
- During 'Smooth Criminal', the guy with the dynamite (right before the lean) appears a bit late
- During 'Smooth Criminal', one of the backup dancers almost falls during the lean
- During 'Smooth Criminal', Michael Jackson's blue shirt is unbuttoned (although that could be a good moment for his female fans)
- During 'Heal The World', Michael Jackson's microphone malfunctions
Otherwise answer the question of the topic. What is your favorite concert of the tour ?From Prague (1996) to Durban (1997), they are all carbon-copies concerts (same set list, same dance moves, same choreography, same lip-syncing, same visuals, and so on).

I imagine it must have been fantastic to be there and get soaked up in the atmosphere.17th July 1997 Wembley Stadium. London , England.. Glad i attended..
