I don't remember what year it was, somewhere around 1984, but I saw him in concert in Vancouver. A friend of mine was given tickets for her birthday, and I thought 'what the heck, they're free'.

I've seen Bob Segar, Billy Joel, Tina Turner, The Eagles, Rolling Stones, Elton John, Alice Cooper, and many more, but Michael Jackson's concert was by far the best I have ever seen. I felt like I was re-living my entire life in music (at that point, I was only twenty-something ), and he did his music right back to "Ben".

I enjoyed his music even in recent years, and I think he was an amazing musician. I wish his life hadn't turned out the way it did though. I'm glad the scandals are finally over for him, and everyone else involved.
