How about an old school photo of our Metal God to shake this conversation up about Michael Jackson!! LOL!!!
This is a rare picture from the JP Heavy Metal Photo book.......I still have mine!!

Well said, Joe. I am with you about MJ and the passing of said icons in general.
Whether you liked them or not, all shared a part of our lives. Often whether you WANTED it or not. Michael Jackson, from childhood, to movies (the Wiz), to the cartoon to his youth....inescapable. While not the "confessional," I had more zippered / pocketed shirts in junior high and high school than I care to admit. Don't own a single MJ album, never had the Farrah poster and can't claim to have watched all of Ed McMahon's shows. However, I will certainly miss MJ along with the others. No doubt about it.
That said, I think they should interview Weird Al about MJ! HIS parodies were absolutely classic during that era.
I'm still in shock over the latest death to hit us. I grew up with MJ and Farrah. I must say that it's a bit of a frightening feeling to see icons of your youth dying. Makes you feel you have indeed grown up.
Well, Farrah was gravely ill so it was expected (even possibly welcomed given the unimaginable pain that poor woman must have gone through with such a devastating illness).
Michael, now that is propper shocking!
No matter what his private life was, nobody can take away what he was to his genre of music. He does have the highest selling album in history and was an icon. I feel for his family and for his fans.

Sorry I missed ya MG~
Well, I can't say that this is all unexpected...thank God I've got more to do with my life than most of the others I see on the news...like watch Top Gun...again...lol
Any death is sad. I wish the media and others would just let it go.
While MJ was a great talent, I have to be honest...I quit being a fan about half-a-nose ago. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by spapad from Friday, June 26, 2009 6:17:43 PM)

In the Internet news here it said that music stores are being swamped by people buying MJ cds. Fuckin losers, if there one thing that gets on my nerves it's people that start bandwagon jumping like that. What are they thinking? Michael Jackson died so we better go out and buy some of his music so that when we're talking about his death we can say how talented he was and how we are fans.

[Deep Freeze] Friday, June 26, 2009 9:21:39 AM
Holy Crap!!!!!! Things sure were "hopping" around this place last night!!!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had over 200 posts to "backread"...YEESH! Where do I begin??
Thanks for all the latest comments on the album. It is doing very well and we appreciate that! Good to see ol' Darth back here! Also, it is VERY nice to see we are not being barraged by the usual tripe from certain losers. It actually looks like we are on the road to better times!! That is GREAT news!
As for the recent deaths of celebrities... Well......
Farrah was a lovely lady. Certainly an icon. I do recall having her famous poster in my room. I will admit it! I did not share in the morbid interest surrounding her fight with disease. I am sorry but, that hit far too close to home and I simply did NOT wish to see that kind of thing...again. I found NO entertainment value in it whatsoever. Now, I do understand that there are those who feel it was a great way to somehow get more people to help fight cancer, blah blah blah..but I just could not stand to see her in that condition. No disrespect to her or Ryan O'Neil. It just was not something I wanted to watch. I will forever remember Farrah Fawcett and as she was so many years ago. That works for me.
Michael Jackson. Hmmm.... I was never a fan. Did not care for him. I readily admit he was a musical genius and an innovator. He was great. However, there are many great musicians that I simply do not follow. He did not "influence" me or my music. He did not write the "soundtrack to my life". He did not affect me much in any way. He was a great entertainer and I am sorry for his loss. That is about it. My first wife had one of his albums, I think. That is about as close to him as I ever got. In fact, as crass as this may sound, I could really do without all of the media coverage. It is already getting to be FAR too much for me to stomach.
Ed McMahon. Now here is a great man. What a load of memories I have of him! He was the Master Sidekick!! A great guy. I kind of figured his time was up as he was really looking bad. I feel sorry for his loss, too.
OK, so there you have it. Now then, I am back on the road to vacation!! Much to do STILL!!!!!! I will be checking on you all later!!

I loved watching Star Search but for the singing not the models etc--I remember I had a big crush on Joey Gian--he was a gorgeous man who looked kinda like Andy Gibb--I was madly in lust & I even bought the Star Search album with the best performances on it just for his 1 song --now I couldn't tell ya who the other singers were--I forgot them but he turned my socks back then
I think it was up against Real People or People Are Real --hosted by John Davidson

When I was a child, I love the Jackson five, and thought the world of Michael Jackson, as he came back in his latter years and became so famous, I may not have liked the music but I did respect his genious, I thought Thriller was one of the best videos ever made and really stepped up what people expected from video. Then the fame died down a bit he built his disney land to live in and just got freakishly white and weird. Like you said MG, so much talent gone to waste with a sickened mind.
