And now Jackson, who is with a 2008 tour, is in the O2 frame.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe general consensus is that Jackson has the fan base to attract enough gig-goers from all over the world to make this a huge success. Booking the O2 up for more than a couple of nights might seem like a big gamble on his and his promoters\u2019 part, but just think of the history. People will flock to witness Jackson cover his back catalogue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for more updates&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-michael-jackson-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
