Was it simliar to this show😮

[@ItsUnitedAgain]

I’d say both shows were exactly the same. Also saw him at Lansdowne Road in 92 and The RDS in 97. Other tours didn’t have the energy of the Bad Tour tho.

[@ItsUnitedAgain]

Yeah Myself & my girlfriend left early, when he was supposed to be going over the crowd with a jet pack. As we reached the big double gates, a black limo stopped, the sunroof opened and he jumped up and waved at us before jumping back down & speeding off. ‘92 was good but seeing him live for the first time will always be the best for me.

Honour and treasure. God bless Michael beautiful soul forever presence.

[@BelfastManUtdTherapy]

hey for anyone watching this who misses Michael, this was irish tv coverage, it seemed even then, the news media of america had influenced alot of the worlds media to call him wacko which pissed my parents off we have clippings still on newspapers but in 2006/2007 he actually lived here in Ireland, and I wish I knew at the time! here a wee link kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6O3k6J_eMSbm5Y

Was there .. class

[@swoods7720]

I’m stunned that the UK media had already started using that derogatory term as early as 88. Somebody tell me what in the world could prompt media to call such a beautiful soul, such a derogatory, harsh phrase. The only thing that is truly wacko. Here is the medias treatment of such a beautiful person.

[@BelfastManUtdTherapy]

This wasn't uk media it was RTE i think but as an irishman and having learned he moved here in 2006 secretly, the locals kept it quiet so that he and his kids had peace and quiet makes me so proud. Here's the link, apologies if you or others already know this! Theres cctv of him at a bowling alley and yet the locals told no one :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6O3k6J_eMSbm5Y

[@CorpusChristi-j8x]

​@@calumbo9742 you make it seem as if irish media isn't a carbon copy of UK media lmao

[@nmg2670]

​@@CorpusChristi-j8x It isn't. There are many big differences and nuances which you probably would never understand
