* The biggest audience ever to see an artist in one city.
* The most amount of people to attend a series of arena shows.
* The fastest ticket sales in history.

By the end of the 50 concerts, almost a million fans will have witnessed one of the greatest musical events in history. Michael is ‘thrilled’ by the response and wanted as many fans to share the experience with him as possible. This is the last chance to see the King of Pop in London, performing the songs we all love!

Do you honestly think that Phsyco Mike will be able to do 50 shows? I reckon he will breakdown after the first 5.

^^^^ I am actually pretty sure it will be all play back and he can't actually perform...

we all know the reason why he lunched such a show because he is bankrupt and need some cash :p

however, its worth it... and I wish I could be in London this summer

i still love his songs espacialy the old ones, but other than being sycho, mick is getting older and i agree that he cant perform these shows in one day..little kidz my help ..lol

Michael Jackson to me is like Dubai to Sagé, but I have to agree with Onion. This will NOT be the 'greatest concert' of Michael J. He's gonna break down at 5 or something. He can't even talk properly.
Maybe its a fake thats gonna perform and they put up a tape player where he mimics.

Its sad, but the truth.

He still has several months to practice. he might do well, especially coz he doesn't have much else to do other than that.

You mean, after recouperating from on-going plastic surgeries

lol. I think he will do fine. but that would be the absolute end of his career.

he will be performing 50 concerts over 50 days... so who knows, he might really perform and surprise everyone!!!

What? 50 concerts in 1 day? That's sure impossible thing. Even 50 concerts in 50 days is impossible for his condition. He is already old and his stamina is not like the day when he was young and energic. 50 concerts in 50 days will spent a lot of stamina and it's very frustrating that you even couldn't sleep well.

I agree.. Its sounds impossible...

there is a day break between each concert... I also wonder how the organizers will make sure everything will run smooth for those masses who are about to hit the country to attend this concert marathon

It is certainly not 50 concerts in 100 days, take a look at the schedule:

Maybe you got something wrong here ... same venue for all the concerts.

It is the same venue

wow, that is very interesting. I would have loved to have seen him perform in Dubai ... maybe he is worried of sun and its impact on his skin.

Considering the fact that he was living in Bahrain until recently I doubt if this would be a problem.

he must be all covered, resting in his igloo.
