47. Thankfully I live no where near Staples! This will be a stinking circus! And it won't be the animals at Ringling Brothers being at Staples at the same time!

48. (That comment was funky. I didn't highlight all of that. I meant just this:)

26. #13 I did hear that there were jumbotrons being delivered to the Staple Center for the people that will not be able to get in

52. Free? Why give it away when so many would pay? I would think $25 for upper level and $75 for lower would sell out.

54. For real @ Bettyboop?? :) OMG thanks for telling me DOI! LIKE I SAID MY family & I will be there. Do you have anything to say about MJ's memorial? I'm not the focus here. Stick to the topic, or *poof* be gone!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

55. **************** AEG ********** AEG ****************AEG****************

HEY AEG,

You should broadcast the 2 hours+ of practice at the Staples Center to movie theaters on a global basis

LIKE 20,000 theaters world wide

Do it right now at the peak of the hype...you might be able to sell out thousands of movie theaters worldwide for days.

OR PAY PER VIEW?

Michael Jackson at the Movies - MORE THAN TITANIC

57. I was doing the math on the $25/person and was going to raise a fit all over the net if that's what AEG/Family or whomever was going to do.

The other thing... California is raising issues about "who is going to pay for the LA's services"............

First, MJ did SO much for California.. it is only fitting that CA foot the bill. Don't ask UPFRONT for money.. that's REALLY tacky!!! I bet they didn't do that when they sent out 2,000 PO's for the Lakers' celebrations. Grade: F- California

AEG should not be the primary ones that stand to gain from the 100+ hours of video they have on MJ. They would not have a pot to piss in if it weren't for MJ (and yes, I realize that sword cuts both ways)... but at LEAST 50% of any monetary prizes they make should go to his children. ONLY FAIR. They will make a mint!

Jackson family - doesn't matter what YOU want. What MICHAEL wants is what matters. Stop telling us about you. Ugh! We mourn respectfully along with you, but we are celebrating HIS life... there will be plenty of time for yours later.

59. I am glad to see some progress already with the funeral arrangements. It's time to bury the man. He's been deceased now for 1 week. It's time to lay him to rest.
I am sure there will be newscasters in the Staples center so we'll all get to see the memorial, just in a much more quieter enviroment. :)
Let's keep in prayer the family during this time. It's hard to bury someone and have to let them go. The family will need all the strength and support they can get.

Blessings from a fan in Texas!

60. I truly believe that the best way for a memorial should be a private televised one for all the world to see Just how they do for new years which is shown around the world. If the do it the way they are planning to do it, there will be caos people will try to anything to just get in. Not only that but people will try to duplicate tickets. Think about it. If when people have gone to his concerts and see him the faint just by looking at him only imagine just knowing that his body is in side the center the people inside omg who knows what can happen may be even try to run and get close to him. Never the less the people whom would be outside. This is my strong opinion there will be caos maybe even tragedy.
