What was MJ doing when you were born? (It goes without saying that this thread is not for those born before August 29th 1958 or June 25th 2009).

I'm 14-and-a-half, born in the HIStory era, but only really experiencing the This Is It era. When I came into the world in mid-July, it had been under a month since the release of Michael's fifth adult studio album - one made after personal troubles and allegations. My birthday was wedged between the release of the first two singles, both record-breakers - Scream/Childhood (May 31st) and You Are Not Alone (August 15th).

What about you?

Re: When I was born, MJ was...

I was born Jan 7, 1982...so just a few months before he started recording Thriller!
 
Re: When I was born, MJ was...

Interesting thread!:)

Michael was in the J5 and they had won an amatuer night competition at the Apollo theatre in the year I was born!
1967! Baby MJ was just 8yrs old when I was born!:yes:

LOL I feel old!!:doh:
 
Re: When I was born, MJ was...

I was born 6th of July 1989 i have no idea what MJ was doing that day lol
 
Re: When I was born, MJ was...

I was born on September 24th 1988 and my guess is that MJ was in the middle of the Bad Tour at this time
 
Re: When I was born, MJ was...

OMG! What an awesome topic because I found out something kind of wonderful that I'd never looked up before! :) When I was born it was just a couple of weeks after Michael's debut solo album 'Got to Be There' was released. Rockin' Robin was released in the US the week after I was born.

AND... the day after I was born the Jackson 5 performed in St Louis, just 400 miles away from the hospital where little tiny mjbunny had just popped out into the world! :wub: They hadn't had any concert dates in the previous days, so one could guess they may have pulled into St Louis on my b-day, the day before the show (Or better, maybe I can pretend 13-year-old Michael was flying over or being driven down the interstate by my hospital on his way to Missouri while I was being born... lol) Geesh, 400 miles away... that's closer than I was to Michael for like 99% of the rest of his life :boohoo:

Update: Or at least that's according to one website (http://www.jackson5abc.com/dossiers/concerts). Another has totally different tour dates listed for 1972. Agh! Come on now, don't crush my moment of joy. Ok, found my date on other sites too, so I think it's true :)

When I was born, Michael was in Australia, 14 days away from the end of the first leg of the Bad tour. He was on a break between his Melbourne show and his first Sydney show. :)

January 6th, 1984... "January 10, 1984: Michael visits the unit for burn victims at Brotman-Memorial Hospital in Los Angeles" according to: http://www.jacksonaction.com/?page=charity.htm

And also during that month (jan 27 to be more specific) MJ was burned during filming for Pepsi commercial

In the final days of the BAD era.. Dangerous were released just five days after that. Maybe this is the last pic of MJ from that era..
