i can imagine them having been sold for a fair whack, but millions!?

 

[Rado_N]

That was my reaction, that was what they said though, only 11,000 tickets available or something?

Whats with the silence?

I dunno! it's been about 15 minutes now and nowts happened

 

[Mockney]

Have they done the Zombie bit from Thriller yet?

 

[Solius]

It's just a silent crowd at the moment with some blokes talking over it.

 

[jgraham]

Are they supposed to have the coffin there or have I imagined hearing that?

 

[Solius]

Bringing the coffin on, jesus christ...

 

[jgraham]

ok yeah that's just a bit wierd!

 

[Solius]

The...American....guy... keeps...pausing....between....words.

He keeps interrupting Trevor Nelson too, Nelsons gonna get pissed off soon!

 

[EricaNo7]

they're bringing the coffin on?

 

[jgraham]

they're bringing the coffin on?

Yep, a bit odd i'd say.

 

[Rado_N]

That pausing is very annoying.

I'm sorry but bringing the coffin out is just sick. I heard something about them having a clear coffin for a public memorial, which (if true) is also sick.

the family complained and stopped that, quite rightly IMO

 

[Solius]

I'm going to listen to my own music til a decent artist comes on.

 

[Solius]

Theres the coffin.

 

[jgraham]

that must be off putting to anybody performing

i can see lots of tears

 

[Rado_N]

Call me cynical, but I doubt that he's actually in that.

 

[Solius]

Surely it won't be on display all night?

 

[Mockney]

He seems to be in a giant silver Barbeque

 

[jgraham]

Surely it won't be on display all night?

i think it might well be!

 

[Rooney24]

Can someone explain to me what the feck is the point in getting buried in a $25,000 coffin?????

i'm guessing the only reason is that he can

 

[jgraham]

It's basically a funeral live on tv!

Big Deal. we have had them before. Diana, George Best etc....

 

[101]

Mariah Carey? She can't sing. All I can mostly hear is air.

 

[phelans shorts]

has mariah carey lost her voice?

 

[dumbo]

Wow this is painful.

 

[Rado_N]

Who is going to be the first artist to break down in the middle of a song?

 

[101]

has mariah carey lost her voice?

Always been like that.

 

[Solius]

This is quite awkward.

 

[phelans shorts]

i've just noticed how much mariah carey looks like DW off the cartoon arthur!

 

[jgraham]

Big Deal. we have had them before. Diana, George Best etc....

Yeah Where did I say it was a first?

 

[Rado_N]

I know it was rushed but you'd think a basic sound check would have been carried out.

 

[Sam]

[101]

It's ok folks we have an apology!

 

[dumbo]

"Apologies for the sound problems"

Harsh on Mariah.
