Michael Jackson in New York: From Apollo Theater to Studio 54, King of Pop was prince of the city
Michael Jackson's most important trip to New York was, in many ways, his first one.
It was August 1967 and he had just turned 9, when his father, Joe, loaded everyone into a well-worn Volkswagen bus and drove from Gary, Ind., to 125th St. so the Jackson 5 could enter the Apollo Theater's famed Amateur Night competition.
They won and Michael later wrote that he also fell in love with the Apollo, even the "musty old curtains" in which the young boy would on subsequent visits enfold himself and study how James Brown or Jackie Wilson conquered an audience.
Anything is possible, it's been a whole lot, of unusual tweeting going on of late, from family, and a few other people, I'm still curious why Chris Tucker, I'm Back Tour, is being sponsored by AEG? Love You
