Whoa there. I think you need to go look at that Moonwalker video posted in this very thread somewhere around page six or so.
He performs with no flashy lights on a basic auditorium stage. No light show, smoke, mirrors, topless whores, gimmicky dancers, or anything other than and empty stage and one black dood in a flashy jacket with a microphone and a god given gift to sing and dance and emote.

Maybe a lot of the shows were huge lights, pyro, multiple dance crews, blah blah blah, but his early work, and especially the mentioned video are prime examples of what his magic was. He didn't need any of it.

And you had the nerve to use the emoticon while composing and posting the above quoted "crap".
