Ugh, we knew it was too good to be true!!!!
The dramz with Wacko Jacko's comeback has already started!
Ticketholders for the July 8th, 10th, 12th and 14th shows at the O2 arena were informed today, via e-mail, that the shows have been postponed!!
The July 8th date will take place only a few days later on July 13th.
But the others????
Postponed until March 2010!!!!
The e-mail blast read:
Dear Customer
This afternoon Michael Jackson producers will be announcing the rescheduling and change of the opening shows in order to meet the challenges presented by such a large and technically complex concert.
Please allow us to apologise. It was not an easy decision to change the schedule but in the end we wanted to ensure that all of Michael's fans attending the concerts get the same quality in staging and level of entertainment.
We are writing to let you know that the 10th July concert that you purchased tickets for at the O2 arena has now been rescheduled for 1st March 2010. The tickets you receive will be printed with the rescheduled date and you will have the same seat originally purchased. You do not have to do anything as you will be automatically allocated the same seats and moved to the revised date.
We understand the inconvenience this may have caused and for this reason we have secured some excellent hotel deals for Michael Jackson fans travelling to London on these rescheduled dates. Please contact our official travel package provider Thomsonexperience at
[email protected] or call on +44 (0)20 74621563 for discounted deals on hotel beds in London. We can offer a 10% discount on all hotel bookings. Quote 'Michael Jackson rescheduled dates' in order to claim the offer.
If you cannot attend the revised date and want a full refund including booking fee, please contact us at
[email protected] or via our Michael Jackson Support line on 0844 277 9982.
Tickets will be dispatched closer to the event date.
Thank you for your understanding. Michael, who is directly involved with all aspects of the styling/choreography/band selection and rehearsals, is working around the clock to ensure this is the show to end all shows! We look forward to seeing you on 1st March 2010.

This should be canceled altogether if it's not ready. I'm sure he has some other money somewhere to pay for his financial problems.
