What's your definition of "watchable"? Jetzi's videos were watchable, too.😁

Mate that's just unlocked a memory 😅. I was so grateful for Jetzi's videos. We've come a long way since those days

I'd take a Bad 25 Wembley level DVD of New York. The quality never bothered me as much as others, a high quality release would be a dream, but the Wembley DVD beat the camcorder rips we used to have

That's the thing. We ain't sure they had (or have) the master of Wembley, but there's enough proof they still have the MSG master.

Is there proof of that? Not being snarky, I genuinely have no clue about this one. I know they have the snippet of MJ and Tatiana kissing, but that didn’t look much better than DVD quality from what I recall.

well, thats the quality of the tape then. it wasnt remastered, if that was fixed up and sharpened it could look really good.

Yes, there is. The Dirty Diana alternate music video is from the MSG performance, then there's the kiss bit in 2012.
The master is tape, of course (Beta Tape, not Umatic in this case).

Also, you have to take into consideration it has been cropped.

Haha! Brother, do you remember the Oyvindeid days? Man this takes me back. I’m getting old.

Yes. There's a New York Times article about the first night that mentions Steve Stevens' appearance.

But there are also articles mentioning the kiss happening on the 6th. I don’t think we ever got to a conclusion of when the kiss took place. Although I also believed that it took place on the 3rd, I’m now more inclined to believe that it was on the last night.

Steve isn't mentioned to be in any other night. Guess I'm sticking with the 3rd, which corroborates the idea of DD and the Bad 25 bit coming from the same tape.

Why Michael Jackson's 'Motown 25' moonwalk almost didn't happen 40 years ago: 'After that was over, we just knew this was incredibly special'

Jackson’s actual moonwalk was surprisingly brief: It lasted only two and a half seconds. But like most myths, it has evolved exponentially over the years.

interesting that there was in fact a full dress rehearsal of ‘billie jean’, where Michael went all out. I was always under the impression that he kept it a secret from everyone (though, it was probably just his family). I wonder if any footage exists, and if it was any different to the final performance?
