Friday Flashback: Michael Jackson Edition

By Marcus Gilmer in Arts & Entertainment on Jun 26, 2009 6:20PM

As we mentioned earlier today, the citizens of Gary, Indiana are mourning their most popular native son, the King of Pop Michael Jackson. What happened when Jackson came back in June 2003 for a visit? One word: chaos. And then check out a performance of "Human Nature" during the Chicago stop of 1984's Victory Tour. The Chicago stops consisted of three shows from October 12 through 14 at Comiskey Park. After the jump is one more Michael Jackson-related video featuring a song written but not sung by Jackson, just for the hell of it.

When you're done, be sure to download local rapper Rhymefest's Michael Jackson mixtape, MAN IN THE MIRROR.
