Does MJ do the vocal hiccup in concert live?

[iluvmjforever2009]

I love Mikes vocal hiccups especially on the Jackson Live Lp from 1981 and other records. I have a questions does he ever do it live In concert since 81 I seen lots of youtube videos and I haven't seen him do it once since then. Is that a studio trick?

You're right, I never noticed it before though...I love the hiccups, and it's true, I never see him do them in concert...Good observation

No, it's not a studio trick...
He didn't need technology to replicate that sound.

You can see him do it at 1:57 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2zrZUrpYmw
at 2:44, 4:19 & 4:23 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFsQI7kZJdU, for instance.
