Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

It could be that the reason they went with the July 16th concert is because that its Michael's copy so therefore its one signed off on, another reason maybe that the footage may exist from other concerts but theres an issue with quality or because its in a unedited state.

If I hope not obviously the footage isnt as good as it could be we fans have been remastering footage from Yokohama & Kansas so I wouldnt be surprised if one of us out there takes the initiative.

Really looking to demos i'm a little curious about the remixes fingers crossed there no where near as annoying as the Thriller 25 Remixes
 
Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

Here's the transcript...
Michael: I wrote a song called "Dirty Diana". It was not about Lady Diana. It was about a certain kind of girls that hang around concerts or clubs, you know, they call them groupies.
Barbara: Groupies.
Michael: I've lived with that all my life. These girls...they do everything with the band, you know, everything you could imagine. So I wrote a song called "Dirty Diana". But I took it out of the show in honour of her royal highness. She took me away and she said, "Are you going to do 'Dirty Diana'?" So, I said, "No I took it out of the show because of you." She said, "No! I want you to do it...do it...do the song."
Barbara: So she had a sense of humor with you?
Michael: Yeah, of course. And she told me it was an honour to meet me. And I said, "It's an honour to meet you."
Barbara: How did you hear of her death?

I don't see anything about re-adding it in. I'm so confused.

The fact that we have to wait til SEPTEMBER for this! :lol: ;)

Just two weeks to IJCSLY single and Pepsi cans and remixes should be available shortly. That should keep us busy.

I'm quite curious about Bravado T-shirt designs that they will release.

Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

If I do that as you are getting a free copy, you'll promise never ever complain again.

only for this release? ok. deal.
 
Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

I'll buy and send it to you for free. how about that?

I'll buy a copy too, but you can also buy it and send another copy to me for free. :D

p.s. MJ's concerts were almost all video recorded in high quality by several hi-tech cameras either for his personal archives or by the local TVs. It was all over the cable TV news and music channels back then. Blu-Ray is totally releasable, but let's hope that DVD quality is sufficient for big screens and that the master source the estate/sony possess is of high quality.
 
Re: Michael Jackson BAD25 - The Announcement We Have All Been Waiting For

I'll say what I think too :)

To me the most important things was a concert DVD and a previously unreleased songs. They gave us both. We got the Wembley concert that we have been waiting for. So what if the quality won't be the best? They are releasing a show that has been recorded 25 years ago who knows in what condition. I'll take whatever I can get.

Previously unreleased demos in a untouched format is what we wanted as well. I'll rush to Walmart to get the IJCSLY single and I'll cherish the CD of the demos as well. Who cares if they out any remixes with that or not? I care about the demos,if I like the remixes I'll listen and if I don't I'll skip them. Those extra stuff is not a deal breaker for me.

Then we have the first ever live performance audio, two booklets with previously unseen photos and a box. I'm as happy as a person can be. And honestly no debbie downer or sony/estate boycotter can bring me down.
Thanks Ivy, I couldn't have said it better myself. I am so happy I just want to burst!! LOL This is so much more than I ever expected - it is unreal. The estate is obviously listening to us and have learned a very important lesson after MICHAEL, so I truly appreciate their efforts. I am also beyond happy that I'll be able to go to my local Wal Mart and buy the single, it's been so long since we've had a physical single, it seems incredible that it could really happen. I'm going to buy a couple too. I'm just ecstatic and it is so wonderful to see that most fans are as ecstatic as I am. This is how it is supposed to be, so so grateful to the Estate.

I know totally this release made me completely forget about not getting the cans here. My mom is going to think I've lost my head when I start packing Pepsi cans in my luggage on the trip home from Vegas in August. I already begged my dad to re-hire me to work with him all summer so I can have enough money for the dvd and special package. He was all like " Look who's come crawling back" I was like oh hush cause come September I'm leaving again.
