This It It dvd promo event London

So tonight I going to the dvd promo event in London, in HMV Oxford Street. The plan is 10 to 11pm, Dance The Drill with the concert dancers, then a meet and greet with Kenny Ortega and Travis Payne.

Honestly, I am soo muddeled. Im going to support Michael and to meet up with the other fans. Even though I have been to see the film multiple times at the cinema, , something about it just feel right right to me.

The same tonight. I just dont really trust Kenny and Travis. The thing is, they are under contact to SONY and publically have to be all bouncy and happy and do everything to promote the film. This basically means they are SONY employees and have to follow SONY policies and they have to say what SONY want them to say.

Even though Im going, I havent learnt the DRILL. This in itself speaks volumes to me, as its so out of character for me. I have always been a "dancer" fan, trying to learn Michaels routines, even meeting up with friends in a park in 2008 to learn THRILLER dance.

Now though, Im just not that bothered. Dont get me wrong, I absoluty love the dance, and love seeing Michael do it, but its just cos its being used as promo... it dosnt feel right.

There just seems to be conflicting issues surrounding the whole dvd/film

On one hand, there is SONY and Kenny promoting the film, all the hype etc. Thats the superstar Michael Jackson, the SONY product, the one which the general public knows, and who is more popular now than he has been for 10 years or more.

One the other hand, children have lost thier father, parents have lost a son, fans who saw behind the mask of the superstar and got to know the person, all grieving, trying to adjust to life without the person, and an ongoing police investigation and pending court case.
