I've just yahooed "Michael Jackson" news and found this out. It's related to the LA pics, but says about his future plan about world tour. I don't believe the credibility of the links 100%, but thought I'd post them anyway. Don't know if it was posted already...

Fallen superstar MICHAEL JACKSON is lining up his big comeback - a 30-date live spectacular around the globe.
The King of Pop's last major tour was in 1996, and his most recent album, Invincible, was released seven years ago in 2001.
He has become a virtual recluse since he was cleared of child abuse allegations in 2005.
But now Jackson is set to stun the pop world by releasing an LP he has recorded in Las Vegas - and heading out on a massive world tour next year (09).
Rumours recently surfaced that the Thriller star was planning an Elvis-style Vegas comeback.
But he is said to have let slip his real plans during a visit to an antiques store in Hollywood on Thursday (23Oct08).
An onlooker tells Britain's The Sun newspaper, "Michael said he wasn't doing a Vegas residency but was going on a world tour, taking in 30 cities next year. He said he wanted to do it for his kids. He wants them to see what he does, and he wants to take them on the road. He said he was on his way to Los Angeles to finalise the details."
