HIStory appreciate post number two! The HIStory World Tour, the last tour Michael Jackson ever did. He had each show professionally recorded so quite a few have popped up on torrents even though an official DVD was never released, so I’ve seen a few of them. (The Munich show was supposed to be released on DVD but he pulled the plug because he was unhappy with his performance - he had laryngitis so his voice wasn’t at its best).

The tour, which grossed a total of $163.5 million, included a total of 82 concerts with a record-breaking attendance of 4,500,000 fans.

Now, this tour had THE MOST amazing set list ever, which is the main reason it is my favourite - along with the bitchin’ outfits and stage production.

Tour set-list:

1. “Scream” / “They Don’t Care About Us” / “In the Closet” (Features elements of HIStory and She Drives Me Wild)
