He has announced his 10 days at the O2 in London will be his last ever UK tour.



Over 50,000 have already pre-registered for multiple ticket allocations, most VIP & Executive seats likewise at up to £900 each per night!



Is he any 'worse' or 'weird' a person than many of our home brewed 'rockers'?



Would you pay to go and see him?

Last time I looked, most of our home grown rockers have not been suspected of child molesting, TWICE

On the subject of Rockers. Francis Rossi of the Quo has had his pony tail cut off.He said he looked in the mirror last week and thought that he looked like an 'idiot'. Blimey we could have told him that 20 years ago!

During the 60's & 70's there were many allegations of 'our' rockers having sex with fans who were very underage. Serious drug problems and violence were rife.

Ozzy was an alcoholic and drug addict as well as being known for biting the heads off live bats and doves, he was also a wife beater and even Sharon admits he once tried to strangle her when drugged to his eyeballs.



Do we see Ozzy as some kind of 'National Treasure' and Jacko as a weirdo?



I'm not a fan of Jacko, I feel he has had as disturbed/fantasy a life as many of our home brewed.



Even recently Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse have been appaling 'role' models, but can still be a sellout!



Funnily enough, don't you think Ozzie & Jacko look like they could be father & son?

"who has £900 to spend,.."



Despite the recession,.. an amazing number of people. The UK may have 2m unemployed, but the other 95% of employees seem to be doing well.



p.s. re the banking/fat cats crisis, last year RBS had 2 private suites at the O2.

Due to the financial crisis, this year they have,.......3!





(allegedly!)

I saw him live years ago, on the Dangerous tour, and it was truly amazing.



It is difficult to separate the genius song writer/entertainer from his recent allegations.



I for one will try my best to get tickets as i love his music and know it will be a spectacular (freak) show....but if i think too hard about it...do i really want to give that pedo any more money?.....



i mean shamon, if he was anyone OTHER than MJ...we would all be crying burn in hell.

If I had the money, yes I would buy a ticket. Has he ever been charged over child molestation? Innocent till proven guilty.

Love him or hate him,... he has announced a further 18 dates.



AEG who own the O2, as well as LA Galaxy & David Beckham, have now had over 3m,... yes 3 million,... registrations for Jacko tickets.



Due to demand, I can't promise anything, but if I could offer up to 20 places in a private box for one night, just for Cyprus44 members, would any of you be interested ?



It could cost About £150pp for VIP access, 'in box' food and free bar all night.



Just a thought!
