Michael Jackson gone but not forgotten.....

I will never forget my 13th birthday!
It was October of 1984 and my Mother and I slept over night at Comiskey Park in Chicago to buy the very sought after tickets for the Jackson Victory Tour...the last time the Jackson Brothers toured in the U.S.
When Michael Jackson took the stage I bawled like a baby for 15 minutes! It was awesome and an event I will never forget.
I felt a little cheated during the past several years because someone who was such a big part of my teen years was involved in so much controversy, I just wanted people to think of him as the great entertainer that he was. Now that he has a passed I hope all of the good he did will over shadow the controversy in the years to come!
