OK I am confused.  I have always liked the work of Michael Jackson, heck I grew up on it.  My confusion is the fact that people seem to act as if they knew or were related to him.

Now, me I hate going to services for my family and friends.  Went to too many of them in my lifetime and I feel like the sole survivor sometimes.

The idea of spending thousands of dollars to go to a service for someone that you don’t even know seems absurd to me.

Yes, I am sorry that I will not be able to be entertained by him.  Even sorrier that I will not be able to enjoy any more of his work.  However I did not know the man.  I would not go to a service for someone that I did not even know.

It just seems so strange to me. Funerals should be a private affairs among family and friends.
