no flash photography please. It might scare Michael's nose.

I'd like to see the crowd reaction if the J5 played Bob's Country Bunker.

/You know, where they play Country AND Western.

I have a hard time imagining that this is going to get any traction, at least in the U.S. There are still a handful of Michael defenders out there, but not nearly enough to fill an arena, much less a string of them, and the casual fan just isn't going to come out for a show by 50-year old men singing the songs that made them famous as pre-pubescent children. (Think about it this way -- if Michael doesn't have a fan base that would support a tour, what makes anyone think adding Inky, Blinky, Pinky, and Clyde is going to help?)

The rest of the world, maybe. Michael-mania inexplicably persists in places like the Middle East and SE Asia. I can see a "world tour" that consists primarily of stops in Malaysia, Eastern Europe, and Dubai, with maybe a token night in L.A. and New York, with tickets carefully rationed out to C-list celebs and music industry sycophants.
