Now, we must ask the obvious. What were those involved in this event thinking with timing, ticket sale methods, lack of permission re: MJ image etc. when they organized this event.

Michael himself was an absolute perfectionist when organizing any event or concert. He was truly a master at publicity. It has been reported throughout the media MJ himself was extremely and visibly upset with the last concert he participated in with his family. The management handling (under King’s direction), ticket sales, etc. led him to publicly announce he would not be touring with family again.

So now with what has been reported as Michael’s frustration having his family promote anything related to him and how this event is being promoted and organized, do you believe that such a tribute should be organized and promoted by maybe those who really know the business such as estate members?

Let us know what you think.

The Jackson's must be   :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :lol:  But I'm wondering how can they go along with Michael's seeming plan of totally making them look like idiots? I don't understand. :?

I went on Google earth and this is the building. But I cannot see  the Humbug bar. I went around and there are many bars but not Humbug. I don't get it.

I went on the bar's site and I saw photos. So yes, it's that one with purple.



EDIT 2: It's Humbug bar, indeed. I held the mouse on it and it appeared.

Michael Forever: The Tribute Concert is turning into a fiasco with no acts announced, family squabbles, estate representatives announcing they have not given approval, issues with pricing tickets, sales put on hold, and serious concerns by many on the timing of this event considering it occurs during the manslaughter trial that many feel is the only way to get justice in the death of Jackson.

Nothing like that on Craig's website or his Twitter. So more BS. Funny how Craig's big hit back around 2000-2001 was called "7 days".


LOL...I noticed those things too when I checked it out this morning. There is a mention on the Forum of his website that someone stated they had gotten the statement from his Twitter but I checked it and found nothing as well.  I did think it comical that the 3 videos that came up for Craig David during a normal Google search were...7 Days...Walking Away & Rendezvous

Michael Jackson's long-awaited return
to 'King of Pop' status has begun and it's being masterminded by the mysterious, secretive British entertainment tycoon who is behind the phenomenal success of Simon Cowell's ratings juggernaut 'American Idol' and David Beckham's $250-mega-million deal that is bringing the soccer king to the United States.

Well...somebody has released information on ONE act...

Jackson tribute concert organisers address line-up announcement delay
by Julia McWatt, Western Mail
Aug 6 2011

POP singer Craig David last night was the first to claim he will be appearing at the Michael Forever tribute concert.

He is the only act known to be playing the show.

A statement on his website said: “Craig is honoured to announce he will be performing alongside some incredible artists at the Michael Jackson Tribute Concert.”

Organisers of the Michael Jackson tribute concert have sought to explain the delay in announcing the line-up for the show and why fans have been unable to register for tickets.

Announcements about the line-up for Michael Forever – The Tribute Concert were meant to be made by organisers Global Live Events on both Wednesday and Thursday.

Ticket registration for the show, at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff on October 8, was meant to open at 8pm on Thursday, but fans were left with a message stating “please standby for further announcements”. Yesterday, a Global Live Events statement said it was mindful of fans’ expectations.

Global Live Events’ chairman Chris Hunt said: “We will be announcing an incredible line-up very soon. The registration period was put on hold because we want people to know who they are registering to see.”

I have no idea. Sometimes I suspect that the tribute is already cancelled and that this is the reason he deleted it. We'll have to wait and see - I wouldn't be surprised if there is an announcement soon by the family or by Global Live Events saying there will be no  family tribute.

I just checked this:
 What is located at the company address of Global Live Events LLP in Bristol?
A bar with the name "Humbug".

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

Great find Grace!

PT Barnum's definition of a humbug, and it's contrast to that of a swindler:

Quote
Two actors appear as stars at two rival theatres. They are equally talented, equally pleasing. One advertises himself simply as a tragedian, under his proper name - the other boasts that he is a prince, and wears decorations presented by all the potentates of the world, including the "King of the Cannibal Islands." He is correctly set down as a "humbug," while this term is never applied to the other actor.
****
Why? Not because he cheats or imposes upon the public, for he does not, but because, as generally understood, "humbug" consists in putting on glittering appearances - outside show - novel expedients, by which to suddenly arrest public attention, and attract the public eye and ear.
****
An honest man who arrests public attention will be called a "humbug,"' but he is not a swindler or an impostor. If, however, after attracting crowds of customers by his unique displays, a man foolishly fails to give them a full equivalent for their money, they never patronize him a second time, but they very properly denounce him as a swindler, a cheat, an impostor; they do not, however, call him a "humbug." He fails, not because he advertises his wares in an outre manner, but because, after attracting crowds of patrons, he stupidly and wickedly cheats them. <blockquote></blockquote>P.T. Barnum--"Humbugs of the World"


also according to Webster synonym HUMBUG=
an imitation that is passed off as genuine <tests showed that the “old” map of America was a cleverly made humbug>
Synonyms counterfeit, forgery, hoax, humbug, phony (also phoney), sham
Related Words copycat, knockoff; copy, facsimile, replica, reproduction; dummy, mock-up; fraud, gaff, imposture, spoof, swindle; simulation, synthetic; bastard, brummagem, duffer, shoddy

Thank you Grace for your hard work!  What a web, and then how does it all relate with the public taking down of Murdock--perhaps that was even a show also. Who knows what is going on on these levels, what to believe and what not in the media. And Michael is definately in there somewhere, but is he powerful or weak person needing their hand up in a comeback.

Perhaps we were wrong about "that guy" being MJ, but rather it was Murdock. On GC's twitter I can't seem to go back that far to see the context.

Grace what a great find!  This whole hoax has been so amazing to me.  You really know how to connect the dots!  I have a feeling this concert will be cancelled and the excuse will be that the estate stepped in and closed them down due to legal reasons.  Take care, Love to All  :)

That’s exactly what I think is going to happen. 


And as for someone elses’ statement re: how long is the family going to allow Michael to make them look like total idiots.  Until the hoax is done, lol.  They probably feel they owe him what ever it takes for the many fuck ups they made in Michael’s life along the way.  Pay it forward no matter how it looks to other people.
