Yes. There was a little more. Here's the youtube video (ignore the background noise if you can):

I took a 13, 10 and 8 year old. They enjoyed it.

I think I'll wait to see it - it is just too soon after his death for me.

Saw it on Friday and was mesmerized! Hubby even walked away sayin, "WOW!" and he wasn't excited to see it at all, he just took me 'cuz he knew I wanted to see it.

The Thriller performance would've been SPECTACULAR to see!!!!

The young people that spent so much time working so hard... my hats off to them, they were all phenomenal and should be SO proud of themselves!

And what about that female guitar player!!!

I took my 6 year old and she liked it alot. I thought it was great. For me, it solidified the fact that Michael Jackson was a true genius at his craft. It was cool also to see how much work goes into producing such a show. Everyone who worked on it should be proud. The thriller piece was my favorite. My second favorite was the Earth song. Oh MJ why did you have to go and destroy yourself?? The world really needed you right now. His comeback would have been so refreshing. I think he could have made himself completely relevant again. What a tragedy...

I went to see it this weekend. It was good, but not great. I agree that it's a terrible tragedy that he is gone, but the lifestyle he lived along with the "yes men" he had all around him is what caused his early demise.

I saw it last night. It pretty much summed up in two hours why he was such a great entertainer. Go MJ. RIP my man...

Just seen it. I take back all doubts I ever had about his ability to perform, after 10 years of absence. He is magnificent. Like one person there said, "He knows all his tunes, tones, tempos..." His body knows what to do... These would have been concerts on the same level as we remember him from before, - nothing less. The young people are great, and you can see that they were living their dream...

And the softness of Michael, his message of love...

Lisa Marie Presley said, and I believe her in this particular instance, that MJ idolized Elvis and had his own premonition that he would end up like him... The power of visualization, I think, did lead him to the same end... Sad that he couldn't stop when he had kids....
