The Triumphant Return of MJ and a Whale You Love



It's true, rumors have been circulating about a final Michael Jackson tour and what it could possibly be like. Will he just sing the Thriller album? Will Tito make an appearance? Can children get it? (Ok, maybe that was taking it a little too far but you get the point)

While discussing the line up for this year's Rothbury festival, myself and fellow blogger Jeff, couldn't help but joke at the idea of MJ himself playing the festival. Could you image The Grateful Dead playing and right after hearing Thriller? No, it wouldn't be a bad trip, it would be pretty much the craziest, yet awkwardly awesome concert line up known to man. If we could squeeze Tom Jones in there somewhere I don't know what I'd do. Anyway, as we chatted via Facebook about the possibility, a childhood memory came upon us about Michael Jackson, The Free Willy movie. While it kinda creeped me out that I was able to relate a childhood memory to one of the greatest musicians turned creepy that ever lived, I couldn't help but share our convo. In order to truly get a truly memorable and hilarious time out of this post, you must first watch the Free Willy YouTube video. You may be laughing abnormally loud so please know who you're around. If you watch this on your iPhone in the middle of some large public audience and start cracking up, we'd love to hear about it.

Without further ado, me and Jeff reliving our Free Willy childhood:

Jeff: It was soooo windy , I saw a man chasing after his toupee down Harper today! Boy did he have a embarassed but determined look on his face! Hope all is welll with you in the big GR. And, I'm ready for suprises in store next weekend!!!
