Thank you so much for sharing your great video Tess! It was so nice to see Michael’s entire set in one video, especially since I can’t make it to the tour. His set was amazing as usual, and I am so glad he gets such a great response from the crowd at every show.

Love you!

Michael is mezmerising. All three challenging songs, yet his powerful
amazing voice is perfection. Michael you are a natural star. Watching and
listening to your set takes me back to when I first heard you sing, falling
in love with your voice.
Thank you so much tessa!!!!!

Thanks Tessa, it is so good to be able to see the entire set.
I can’t believe he only gets 10 mins on stage, you can tell the crowd want more.
MJ sounds amazing, I just love the tone of his voice, especially during IAWBIAR,
I wish he was able to sing the entire version, Dream On is a really hard song
to sing, yet he does it effortlessly…….so talented!

Thanks, Tessa! It was really cool seeing his whole set in one video!! He is so good. ahhh!! I swear I am already getting butterflies in my tummy just thinking about seeing this live and my concert is still more than 5 weeks away!
July 13th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
Tessa,
What a great video! Your heart must have been pounding the whole time! I know mine is, and I’m just watching from a computer screen! Michael can’t wait to see you in 13 days!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
Thank You Tess for this wonderful gift. Our Michael strikes Again. Perfection!! Love You Michael.

That really was a great video! Loved his set.
I just wish he would talk to the crowd a bit more. His set is done too quick.
He needs more time on stage. Anyways, after watching so many MJ performances on tour, I can’t believe any record label would not be interested in signing him. He has to have offers at least, hope we get some more news about this issue soon.
Michael you rock!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:27 pm
OMG!!! I got chills while watching this video!!! I was really crying too! I’m not even kidding!!!
I’m so proud of you Michael “Bruce” Lee Johns!!! <33
July 13th, 2008 at 1:35 pm

DREAM ON gets me everytime!!! gahhh Im such a crybaby! lol.
July 13th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
Me too!! I’m a Big Cry Baby too.
July 13th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
thanks so much for the video!! can’t wait to see him in a week… =] he’s an incredible performer and an awesome person too. i love dream on, i’m sure not many people could sing that song on stage practically every day and not lose their voice! that’s amazing and shows how great his voice really is. you can tell he is really into what he does =]
July 13th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
Thank-you so much Tessa and way to go Michael Johns!!! You are such a star and I can’t wait to see you!!!!!
You have such an amazing talent!!!
July 13th, 2008 at 3:51 pm
Thank-you! That was amazing!!!:)
July 13th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Thanks Tessa. Its so good to see all 3 songs together. You can see how the reaction of the audience builds with each song to the point of the climax with the falsetto on Dream On !!! Then he’s gone & the audience is left hanging!! Boy do we need to see you on your own tour Michael , then you can stay on as long as you like!!
July 13th, 2008 at 6:11 pm

July 14th, 2008 at 7:32 am
Thank you! That was unbelievable! He is amazing in live performances - it just couldn’t have been any better.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:32 am
It took me 4 hours to download the vid from sendspace….and all i can say it’s really really REALLY WORTH it……..I am so thankful that I finally could watch the whole set of Michael performing. Needless to say, Michael you are fantastic. Tessa, thank you so very much.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:26 am

July 14th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
Great video! His set goes by so fast! Can’t wait for him to have his own concert and tour!

Veoh is not available in my country

After recovering from my pc crashing with a blue screen (not sure why??)… I finally got to see this. MICHAEL YOU ARE SUCH A SUPERSTAR!!! I couldn’t love you any more than I do…I swear! You are SO at ease performing and such a PROFESSIONAL. American Idol Producers are dogs for making you #8, but you sure are showing them! I see where you are saying you were booted off and not voted off. I believe you know the truth now. We LOVE YOU AND WOULD NEVER VOTE the likes of you off the show. I don’t think we will ever see another as cool as you on that show. I can’t wait to see you in Dallas!!!
July 14th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
Michael is just going with the popular flow….he’s tired of explaining that he simply did not get enough votes and he wasn’t booted off. We had no one to blame but ourselves for sitting on our butts and assuming he is great and will win. I only voted once…the week he said adios. I wish I had been more deligent and burned up the phone lines. But as we all can see this has only made for stronger fan loyalty and most people root for “the underdog” especially one with great talent and skills. He has a passion for what he is doing and is inspired by all the “fans smiling faces” during the performance and at the meet and greet. This is what is propelling MJ to move ahead leave all that “other stuff” behind.
July 14th, 2008 at 3:55 pm
Thank you so much for sharing you great video with us Tessa! It is so nice to be able to see Michael’s entire set in one video. He sounded amazing, and I love how he got such a huge reaction from the crowd. It was also great to hear what he said in between the songs. I love the “for the ladies” comment he makes before IAWBIAR. LOL!
July 14th, 2008 at 5:24 pm
You’re welcome!! He was every bit the performer I expected! Hot and oozing with talent. I just wish he had more time on stage and spoke to the audience more, rather than have it feel rushed! The audience just got fired up then he was gone. What’s interesting about him is how he can be all serious when performing and just as quickly turn around inject some of his goofiness. Shows a genuine person that people can connect with. I think he’s got the whole package (looks, talent, intelligence and humility)and deserves all the attention he’s getting and more! I really wish him all the success!!
July 14th, 2008 at 6:43 pm
THUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
July 14th, 2008 at 11:06 pm
Thanks so much Tessa for posting this! Amazing sound and video quality! It felt like I was right there! I will be very soon - I’m attending Saturday’s show!!
WAHOO!!!! I’ll be bringing my orange bandana which I HOPE he’ll be able to sign! =)

Ouch! I can’t see the video. I got a message saying that VEOH no longer available in my country. Java/Allison, could you convert and upload it on Youtube?
July 15th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
I think the video is finally uploading successfully on youtube, after 3 days of trying! It tells me “uploaded, processing please wait”. I’ll post the link here as soon as I get it.
