Now Michael Forever ticketing plan hits the news

Hot on the feels of the Jackson family spat over the planned Michael Jackson tribute concert in Cardiff, comes news of a new row over ticketing. Fans will be asked to not only to register to buy tickets between £55 ($90) and £289 ($475) but must also agree to pledge money to charity - and it seems the more you pledge the more the chance you have of getting a ticket with the event's website saying "Remember, the more you pledge to charity, the more chance you have of getting a ticket. Tickets will range from £55 to £289 plus shipping. The amount of your pledge is up to you. Fans have complained on two fronts - firstly that it seems none of the ticket face value is going to go to charity, and secondly that the system will favour the wealthy, not the fan The Registration period for Michael Forever will last 76 hours from 8pm British Summer Time on Thursday 4 August 2011 until midnight British Summer Time on Sunday 7 August 2011.
