She isn't on the backglass  *.*

In regard to Michael Jackson - may of been a freak but in his prime that guy could really move.

As much as I still love hard rock and heavy metal I'm really sad about his death - go figure  !@#

He he yeah I'm the same Tony, being an old headbanger I could still appreciate the amazing tunes on his "Off The Wall" album.
An amazing talent!

There's already stuff coming out in the news that his death may have been due to some sort of prescription drug abuse.

CA pin was made after Farrah Fawcett left the show and she is not pictured in the art on that game. The art shows Cheryl Ladd, her replacement.. so i dont see how hed death could make that pin increaase in value... well i hope it doesnt coz that game is on my wish list..  :lol

I'm already sick of the TV tributes.

I admire what he did in his early years, and recognize Thriller as being an iconic album. What he did in his later years was just wrong and in my book, tarnishes all the "good" he did.

The comparisons to Elvis is a bit far fetched, and I'm not an Elvis fan

As an "old school Headbanger", I will remember the times in the 80's when he was at the top of his game - Even when metal was "king"

The jokes need to start at sometime - the Australian way of diffusing bad news. I take no responsibility for these:

From The Chaser: Farah Fawcett wins "best supporting death"
From the local hotel: Is it true Michale Jackson died from an allergic reaction to 12 year old nuts?
Wanted: GTB Aquarius backglass. Any playfield bits and backglasses from any EMs - nothing is junk to me.

Had about 12 different SMS msgs yesterday, here are a couple of the cleaner ones:



- Doctors are unsure where to store Michaels body, as plastic recycling night is not until tuesday


- Ambos on the scene, reported to see Michael blowing bubbles, the monkey is said to be in a stable condition



Don't really think the others are appropriate to post on here  *)*

Interesting line-up: I remember seeing a MJ gamesroom sale noted on here, but can't remember if he was selling off these particular pins or not.

Gotta love how the pins are all running off power boards - just like most of us, I suspect!
