Michael Jackson Tickets Sold Out

All general tickets have sold out within just a few hours. One Million Tickets sold out!!!!!

Bit disappointing could only get 4 tickets per household, as fans like myself would surely like to go as many nights as possible.

There are a few Thriller Hospitality tickets available still, there are around £770- £795 each and include the best seats in the house.

Demand has been phenomenal. People who I never knew were fans, don't often go to concerts in general are out to get tickets. Why, because its "Michael Jackson!!!".

Michael Jackson O2 Arena Tickets on General Sale

There's now a total of 50 dates on the Michael Jackson This Is It Tour at the London O2 Arena. Who would have thought Michael would have agreed to that many dates.

There's literally so many people who want to go. Yesterday I had family members contacting me desperate to get tickets. Fortunately I had 2 extra pre sale codes and they were up early and got tickets at 7 am, just as new dates had been added.

Pre Sale Tickets On Sale

This morning 7am, GMT tickets for the 10 Michael Jackson shows at the London 02 Arena went on sale.

My presale code came through late last night. Not an early bird myself I had to set 4 alarm clocks to make sure I was up in time and online for the sale.

It took me 2 hours exactly to get tickets. Immediately I was in a queue which said 15 minutes or more to wait. I had 2 pre sale codes so I had 2 Internet Explorer browsers open and with about 6 minutes estimated queue time left a message came up telling me your not allowed more than one browser open to the site and chucked me out the queue. Arrrg.

Later while queuing the site went down. So, again I was worried as it was obvious there were thousands of other people trying to get tickets.

I must admit I was worried, I didnt know whether my presale code would work again.

Fortunately it did and I managed to get tickets. Woo Hoo!!!

The build Up to the Michael Jackson Announcement

Well its 4.50pm and as of yet no news. I've got my Sky Tv set up, as well as numerous browsers open with sites that are expected to transmit the conference live:

MichaelJackson.com
MichaelJacksonlive.com and
Sky News Live

I've also heard on the news that Underground posters have been seen stating that Michael will be performing 10 dates.

While waiting, Ive also used Twitter for the first time, following the Michael Jackson Press Conference Twitter feed.

An excellent way to get a feel what whats actually going on, while all the Tv screens are just showing a red screen with what must be the slogan for these concerts "This Is It".

Michael Jackson To Perform at the O2 Arena

Wow, mega exciting news. For once reports are actually true. The day all fans have been waiting for, many wondering whether it would actually ever come at all. Well today is the day we are set to find out some details. 4pm today Michael will be giving a press conference at the O2 Arena where its expected he will announce dates for forthcoming concerts at London O2 Arena (formerly the Millenium Dome.

There's excitement everywhere, the news channels, the radio etc etc. All are waiting to find out exactly what is planned from the "King of Pop".

Fans have been invited to attend the press conference and I've watched a number be interviewed today on Sky News.

I'm personally hoping there's a large number of dates as Id like to see him perform as many times as possible, and there's no doubting tickets will be flying out at record speeds once on sale.
