***** The Ultimate Thriller ‘The’ Michael Jackson Tribute *****

Tomorrow night-September 1st at 8pm– The Ultimate Thriller ‘The’ Michael Jackson Tribute—will take the stage at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood.

Based on what I am hearing, this event is almost sold out…with the promoters expecting close to 6,000 people in attendance. If you do some checking (www.theultimatethriller.com) many consider The Ultimate Thriller to be the one of best/if not the best Michael Jackson tribute shows in the world. To give you some idea as to how “exact” the performances are, four South Florida booking agents recently watching video of the show, actually thought that the video was that of the “real” MJ from prior years.

IF this type of event is your bag…I’d recommend buying your GA tickets on Ticketmaster.

By the way, when the “show” was originally planned, there was GA Standing Only on the main arena floor. The promoters have now made that GA Seating, so the best seats will go to the “early birds.”

Jeff Eats will be there.

This thing is gonna be something else!!!.

Read more about this event:

Idol…Icon…Superstar…Legend. Few entertainers achieve this level of success. Michael Jackson was, is, and always will be held in this highest regard. Perhaps, no other performer in history has had such an enormous influence in defining pop music for his generation and generations to follow. With album sales in excess of seven hundred fifty million, including “Thriller”, the biggest selling album of all time, he was, indeed, an icon for the ages.

It was with the greatest of love and respect for Michael`s legacy that The Ultimate Thriller was created. For anyone fortunate enough to have witnessed Michael Jackson`s live shows, the experience was, well, unlike any other. It was with this in mind that The Ultimate Thriller chose to re-create some of Michael`s most memorable concert moments. But this was so much more than just putting together a show and going on tour. For the star of our show, it was about getting an amazing opportunity to perform the songs of the artist he`s most adored his entire life, in front of thousands of people. For the dancers, it was a chance to learn and execute some of the world`s best known choreography. For the band, it was knowing they were going to get to play some of the best music ever produced. And for the production staff and crew, it was about bringing out the best in the performers and being a part of something truly special. To achieve this monumental task would require people with an intimate knowledge of Michael and the inner workings of his live show. To this end, we have assembled some of Michael`s closest collaborators to produce this world-class production.

The Ultimate Thriller`s production team includes LaVelle Smith, who was a choreographer and principal dancer for Michael on the “Dangerous”, “Bad” and “History” tours; Mic Thompson, who spent eight years as a principal dancer for Michael and can be seen in the videos for “Dangerous” and “Ghosts” and Michael Prince, Michael Jackson`s longtime personal recording engineer and audio supervisor for all live and television performances. Their insight and experience with Michael Jackson have been instrumental in providing unparalleled authenticity to the production.

No tribute to a superstar would be complete without the star, himself. The producers of the show have joined forces with E’Casanova, whom many believe to portray the best impersonation of Michael Jackson in the world. He is probably the only entertainer on the planet who can perfectly emulate Michael`s look, voice and dance. Together with an on-stage cast of eleven, state-of-the-art sound, lighting and video, multiple costume changes, incredible choreography and some of the greatest music ever performed, this show is guaranteed to keep Michael Jackson`s legacy alive for years to come.

Just as the appeal of Michael’s music spanned multiple generations, so does the homage paid by The Ultimate Thriller.
The show brings together youthful passion and time-tested wisdom with but one goal: share in the magic, the music and the energy that Michael gave us

    Jeff
    Had a great time.
    This was a top shelf show.
    The crowd loved it.
    I thought that the show was a bit too long.
    But that aside I had a terrific time.

    As far as I have seen this show before, the show itself was streched by a fifteen minute commercial, anouncement, both at the beginning of the show and another after the intermission. The intermission was for fans that anywhere else they played were up dancing the first half. Also, how do you play the artist of the millenium’s music, without going alittle long. Glad you enjoyed it.

    Really had a great time.
    Show was a drop too long.
    Singing happy birthday was stupid.
    The Jacko crack was also uncalled for.
    All and all great time.
