Plans for Neverland on friday

guys !!! i've just read this on skynews.com

"Earlier, Sky News reported Michael Jackson's body will be transported by convoy to his Neverland ranch for a public wake to be held at the end of the week.

But US sources are reporting that there is no public Michael Jackson memorial planned for his Neverland ranch."

:-o !!! what's going on ?
 
They said on CNN that the police is working everything out for friday and they have seen trucks go in and out at Neverland today so i guess its happening on friday.
 
I would like to come too... but I have no money for this. :no: I hope they are going to record the funeral and show it on the news. :scratch:
Jeez, I would like to live in the USA...
 
Will it be on TV? I mean will they show the public viewing on television? It's going to hurt me just watching it from home.
 
I really want to go, gunna try and get tickets once I hear something official. Gunna be so hard to get. :(
 
Looks like it might not even happen Friday, at least not at Neverland.
 
okay. the whole thing just is over now fo me.
i called my dad and this esta has to be filled out 72hours before the flight..
omg that is all so terrible :( :( :(
 
If it doesnt happen in Neverland it will happen in LA, so either all of you will be there.

MSNBC says it won't be at neverland, it didn't work out. What is going on?

Hmm maybe a stall to limit the amount of people going.

Hopefully we have some official confirmation from the family soon. I can't bare this :(
 
a stall or either things really aren't working out. I know that the half owner of neverL said that to bury him this week at NL would be to sudden so maybe that's what happen. plus the fact it's a one way in and out road to neverland and that would be chaotic.

i don't think that the 72 hour thing matters, i did mine today and got authorisation straight away. I called a friend of mine who works in the travel agency and he said it's fine.... fingers crossed

oh god it's true,public viewing in friday,and I CAN'T GO
god this sucksssssssss
 
why can't they confirm everything I can't go because I live in Northern Ireland and it would be too much hassle having to book flights, hotel but I will watch it on tv hope you fellow Michael fans are doing ok
 
Sky News keeps saying there are reports (altough not official) that the public view will be held on Friday and that de funeral will probably be on Saturday or Sunday. I've seen the white carriage which will prob for Michael

I wish every fan from all over the world was able to come :(

P source: No public Neverland memorial planned

By MICHAEL R. BLOOD
Associated Press Writer


LOS ANGELES (AP) -- An effort to bury Michael Jackson at Neverland Ranch fizzled and it appears more likely a funeral and burial will take place in Los Angeles, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

Authorities in Santa Barbara County had been preparing for tens of thousands of fans to descend on the 2,500-acre ranch after media reports that a public viewing would take place later this week.

But the person, who is not authorized to speak for the family and requested anonymity, said nothing is planned for Neverland at least through Friday.

The person said it appears more likely a funeral and burial will take place in Los Angeles. The family has the final say.

A private memorial service for family and friends could take place at the ranch, most likely after the funeral.

The person said billionaire Thomas Barrack, who owns Neverland in a joint venture with Jackson, sought an exemption to bury the singer at the ranch. But the person says it's a complicated process and it couldn't be done for a burial this week.

"The family is aware a Neverland burial is not possible. They are expected to make decisions about whatever funeral and memorial service" will take place, the source said.

Heavy construction equipment and workers were seen passing through the wrought-iron gates of Neverland on Tuesday. The property is about 120 miles northwest of Los Angeles.

At once a symbol of Jackson's success and excesses, Neverland - the 2,500-acre property nestled in the hills of Santa Barbara County's wine country - became the site of a makeshift memorial after his death Thursday.

chael Jackson will not be buried at Neverland ranch

Funeral arrangements for Michael Jackson are still in flux, but one thing is clear: The pop icon will not be buried at Neverland ranch.

Jackson’s family wanted him interred at the Santa Barbara County estate, the site of some of the happiest and saddest times in his life, and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger had agreed to help clear any state bureaucratic hurdles, a source close to the situation told The Times.

But in the end, the source said, county officials could not find a way to quickly circumvent legal restrictions governing burial at a private residence.

"It’s nobody’s fault. Everybody in Santa Barbara feels bad about it,” the source said.

Law enforcement officials had expressed concerns about thousands of cars driving up a narrow mountain road to Neverland.

Santa Barbara County sheriff's Lt. Butch Arnoldi said that the two-lane Figueroa Mountain Road is not designed for a crush of cars and that his department is discussing how to make the route to Neverland as safe as possible.

There have also been reports the memorial might be held at Staples Center.

Santa Barbara County spokesman William Boyer said Wednesday that despite meetings to prepare for the possibility of a memorial service, county officials had not heard from the Jackson family.

"There's been no decisions that have been made as of last night," Boyer said. He said the county and sheriff's officials had been in touch with their law enforcement counterparts in Southern California.

LAPD officials said Tuesday that they met with the Jackson family but that no final decision had been made on either a memorial service or funeral plans.
