Unreleased Victory Tour footage leaks online!
by DAMIEN SHIELDS posted on SEPTEMBER 1, 2013

Around six minutes of unreleased footage of Michael Jackson and The Jacksons performing during their legendary Victory Tour has leaked online.

The footage, uploaded to YouTube by a fan, showcases The Jacksons' performing one of three shows at the Canadian National Exhibition Stadium in Toronto in early October, 1984.

The Victory tour, which consisted of 55 concerts across the U.S and Canada between July and December 1984, is one of the most highly sought-after items in the Jackson fan community. There are several low quality copies of different shows available on YouTube, however to date there has been no official release of the Victory Tour on any format.

The recently leaked footage, seen below, seems to be of a very high quality and is professionally edited.

Interesting comment below the article:

According to J. Randy Taraborrelli (who's info is not always accurate), the Jacksons had an offer to film their show & release it on video. Michael didn't want this done. According to Taraborrelli, Michael had the show videotaped on his own but never released a copy. This "teaser" looks like it comes from this never-before-released video. I have seen the Jacksons in concert twice. They put on an amazing show. However, never having had the priviledge of seeing Michael perform live with his brothers, I would love for this to be released to the public. Interesting though, how this is suddenly available after Michael's passing. Curious has to whose hands it's in.

So where did that come from?
In any case I think it´s interesting to see this footage. Wonder if there is more to come.

Coooooooool! Thanks Mary  :michael-jackson:

Purely a coincidence but today I started to watch a vid on youtube of a Victory Tour concert in Dallas in 1984 (I hadn't noticed the forum was up again!!). But sadly, the quality is very poor! Yeah, I read about that too, that the brothers were to film a concert to release it on video but Michael refused. Then, a few days later, the brothers bumped into camera's while performing, and that was due to Michael, who hired a camerateam on his own, without discussing it with his brothers. So then the brothers blocked Michael from releasing it. Ofcourse I don't know if this story is true, but I can't wait to add it to my collection!

If Michael didn't want this footage to be released I don't get why he would do it now, I think this has been made by one or some of his siblings what makes it disrespectful to Michael.

Why wouldn´t he want it now?
Remember the BAD footage on BAD25 that was, oh suprise, "unearthed", found somewhere, by chance, while someone looked through Michael´s stuff?

Absolutely @Mary. He is is a clever/astute business man and timing is everything, as you commented about Bad.

Ok just to let you know:

it´s been said on FB that this footage is the personal footage of a fan who posted it to a MJ group on FB.

It seems there is no mystery there.

I can only share my knowledge that Michael authorized a limited 2000 pcs only ultimate fan box with private pics many DVDs with Video collection and rare Concerts of the J5/TJacksons and of his own concerts from BAD/Dangerous & HIStory with a Special DVD with private Fotos and a special DVD with nearly all his songs from the albums and some rare with the questionable ones like let me let go biggerman.

And I am one of this lucky ones but I don´t know if that person have the same like I do It was is a great Concert with Hits from Off the Wall and Thriller and of course performances with his brothers for their parents Kathrine and Joseph as a thank you cause KJ wished to see them performed together again. In time like after Motown 25 Celebrating.

And on this Concert they used the same effects like we saw in This is It some squares there with Michael and his brothers like Michael or and Doubles? in TII?? same cool great effect so could be Michael alone in TII as well? cause they used it back then.

BUT MAINTHING IS I HOPE IN NEAR FUTURE WE ALL CAN COULD HAVE GREAT DVD BLURAY OF THAT IT WAS Michaels Preparing Trying Testing for his Stand alone Tour with also great effects and great stage performances. And it is the best of the older Concerts so hope it will officially came some day for all of us to see his greatness and the family union.  :-* :bearhug: :moonwalk_:

Is it me or is there a theme repeating here... :icon_e_confused:

A lot of "leaked" videos and songs going on lately.   :suspect:
Why now?  :ghsdf:

[gwynned]

The shots are taken from several different vantage points.  How did a single fan accomplish that feat?
