I apologize if I'm rude for saying this.
I really believe it's so ridiculous assuming most of the shows were lip synced if you didn't even attend.
You dont need to be there to hear the vocals and tell that the majority of them are the original album vocals. We have the video footage in which you can hear the vocals clear as day.........We have literally over 15 different video concerts from the HIStory Tour as well as many different audio recordings. The same songs are lip synched everytime. Apart from the odd occassion when he may sing part of a song he usually lip syncs live. But still, the majority of the show is still lip synched. About 80% on every show. Its undeniable.
Oh and its not just people who havent attended who are saying most of the shows were lip synched, if you read the thread there are tons of people here who had attended and knew he was lip synching most of the time. Not like you actually had to be there to know he was lip synching. THAT is a ridiculous statement to make.
I actually cant believe its 2010 and we are sitting here debating whether MJ lip synched 80% of every concert on the HIStory Tour. . . . .I could spot that HIStory Tour Munich was mostly lip synched when I was about 8 years old. Never mind now.
