REM played at the U Club, before it became the Library, in ‘84 I think it was.

Did you see Michael Jackson perform at Neyland in 82?

 

[NorCalVol67]

Did you see Michael Jackson perform at Neyland in 82?

No. Was that a solo tour? Wasn’t the Jackson 5 in 84?

You’re right, just googled it. I was only one then, but my sister said it was a fantastic performance.

August 10-12, 1984. As a member of The Jacksons. The Victory Tour. There were 6 Jackson brothers after Randy joined the J5.

The stage was set up in the north end zone. The bowl had been built a couple of years earlier, but the north upper deck wasn’t there yet.

Now, back to dead people.

Michael Jackson. You can’t even frolic around Neverland Ranch anymore.

Good question. Is the giraffe still there Pepper? What else can we ask Pepper about Michael Jackson and his ranch?
