Looking for pics. Michael in front of the crowd

With all these crowd pictures there remains one burning question. Where is Waldo?

Ditto Michael. :D

Whoa! I don't think I've seen this before... is this from the Moonwalker set? Looks like the hideout from the end of the Smooth Criminal segment.
Good question. I have no idea. Can't even remember whether I found the photo here on the board or online. I was on a mega photo hunting sesh last night and it all started to get a bit blurred, lol. If I did find the photo on the board I'm pretty sure there was no info attached to it bc I usually read anything like that. But you're right, it does look like a film set, doesn't it? It's so big, for starters.
 

HWT / Michael's Dutch assistant speaks of her experience working with Michael

oh, Michael trying to speak German 🤣 I think he said "Wie geht es dir" (how are you). "Ich liebe dich" (I love you).
I want to add, I always found it odd that Michael must've been told these are the translations to "How are you?" and "I love you".
He's talking to a crowd, not a single person so the correct German tranlations would be "Wie geht es euch?" and "Ich liebe euch".
For non-German speakers: You (singular) = dich vs. You (plural) = euch.
 

Rome, 1988.

Love it when I get to see shots of the crowd from the stage.

Best shots of Michael, imo? 3m 45s.

@wendijane

yeah, I also wondered about that. I have heard him say 'Ich liebe dich' twice, though he did correct it one time, I think in one of the HIStory concerts.

Yeah, I think it's the best one I've come across. I guess part of it is the novelty value bc we don't usually seen that type of footage from that angle. But I also think it's genuinely the best of its type I've seen. It's a really cool piece of footage, gave me a much better 'feel' for the show and what it's like for Michael performing in front of a massive crowd like that. The editing on this one is fab. I find it way more interesting seeing the show from this angle although, obvs, I wouldn't want *all* of the gig footage to be from behind.

The low point is IJCSLY - Sheryl's screechy voice. Eek! Could do without that. I am not keen on her voice at all.

Especially Michael on the boat
Oh, tell me about it. Fabulous! I love the fact that it's such a quiet oasis in the middle of the craziness around him. And he looks amazing. Michael chewing gum. Michael wearing his classic Ray Bans. Michael looking cool as ... whatever :D

I do a LOT of replay at that point, lol.

You're so welcome!
 
He is so close to the crowd in those shots very cool, maybe it was still somewhat possible before thriller. I assume this is near the end of the concert. And that hat is that something he picked up from the crowd? I remember him wearing British police helmet in 79 during a concert in London.

All these shots look like he is in a spur of the moment. These things aren’t supposed to be happening.
