Dear Michael Jackson,
This is a formal request for you to extend your final tour to the majestic Empire Polo Fields in Indio, California for the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival 2009.
I understand that you're trying to 'put your foot down' and say that your shows in London are your final shows but come on, what's ONE more show right? I also understand that the people of America haven't been too kind to you over the last 10 or 15 years. But like, don't fret MJ. The true Michael Jackson fans have always loved you. And for that we deserve a final, glorious hurrah.
You taught me that "Billie Jean" isn't my lover, that it doesn't matter if I'm "Black or White," and that werewolves are incredibly scary in red patent leather.
You had me dreaming of Lisa Marie at night and Mcauley Culkin, well, I'll leave that homie alone.
You had me and thousands of other young boys trying to do the moonwalk alone for hours in our garages -- I'm still baffled at how you made it look so graceful, like you were ACTUALLY walking on the moon.
Just think, you can come back here to sunny SoCal, tie up some loose ends at the ranch and then rock a two-step and a sparkly coat in the middle of the desert. It will be like Prince in 2008 - multiplied in radness by like a fucking million!!! Imagine Janet joining you on stage. Imagine showing us one last time why you are the King of Pop.
Folks over at Goldenvoice, I sincerely hope you see things the same way. And I hope that you Mr. Jackson will see that LA needs you to do this. I need you to do this. Millions of fans in the US need you to do this. Starving stray dogs and orphaned children need you to do this. And if you don't? well I guess I may just anoint Justin Timberlake the King of Pop (but it will be with a tear in my eye).
Yours Truly,
Dillon
yes..to that person that wrote that letter that asked MJ to come to california...i agree..AMERICA loves you, Michael!! Please come! as that writer states, we realize how the media has been, and the following haters have been in America, but the true MJ fans outnumber the haters, wayyyy outnumber them, here. as you know, we follow you everywyere you go and mob you, whenever you go outside in los angeles or anywhere in america, today. you closed down times square in 01. false reports in san diego of your apperance brought crowds anyway. Augdier's party in los angeles, brought mania when you appeared, even though no one had any idea you were coming. that was very recent. MSG sold out in five minutes in 01. for both concerts. steve harvey had all day MJ radio. and he got BIG ratings, just a week ago. American Idol got it's biggest ratings after a sub par ratings season, because of Michael Jackson week. and that was without you appearing. and you know it partly was in anticipation of you might appear, and the rest was because..it was Michael Jackson week, and we are even willing to hear your songs, even if they are sung by somebody esle. that's how desperate we are to have you back. please do a residence in America(preferably los angeles, lol) We never stop loving you, Michael. Please come to America, and please try to ignore the wayyy outnumbered haters, and the wayy outnumbered hating media, that is also wayyy outnumbered by the MJ loving fans. i eternally apologize that you have to go through what you have to go through because of the hating media here and the haters, here, that follow. of course, i don't agree about passing the torch and crowning someone else King, in the above letter, but then again, i know he didn't mean it by the tone of his sentence. You will always be King, Michael. it's funny how i was gunna copy and paste a url from usa today newspaper, about your concert sellout record, at the o2, but, usa today didn't allow the setting. see, they know you have massive fanbase in the usa.
