Dangerous World Tour

• View history

This article is about the tour. You may have been looking for the album .

The Dangerous World Tour is the second worldwide concert tour by Michael Jackson . It was launched in support of the artist's eighth studio album, Dangerous (1991) and lasted from June 27, 1992 until November 11, 1993. The shows were sponsored by Pepsi .

The tour grossed a little less than its predecessor, Bad World Tour , gaining over $100 million. All profits were donated to charities including Heal the World Foundation . As it was nearing its end, the Dangerous World Tour was unfortunately cancelled due to Jackson's declining health. The tour was originally going to end on Christmas 1993.

Background [ ]

During the final show of the Bad World Tour in 1989, Jackson stated it was going to be the final time the world would see him on stage. This was initially the plan for his career going forward, as Michael later explained, concerts were exhausting and he went through "hell" touring. Additionally, the artist wanted to focus on making music and filmmaking instead.

On February 3, 1992 Michael held a press conference at Radio City Music Hall in New York, where the Dangerous World Tour would be announced. Michael explained, that the sole reason he'd do the tour was to raise funds for the Heal the World Fundation. The goal was to gain $100 million by Christmas of the following year; a goal the artist succeeded with.

As the tour was nearing its end, in 1993 Jackson was accused of child sexual abuse by Evan Chandler. This caused Michael to begin taking drugs to ease his mind, but caused his physical health to worsen. On November 11, Michael played in Mexico, which would unfortunately become the final show of the tour, as the rest of it would be cancelled so the artist can focus on improving his health.

Outfits [ ]

For the tour, Jackson rocked a couple different outfits. These were designed by Michael Bush and Dennis Tompkins .

He wore two different, military-like outfits; first was blue and glittery with a golden stripe crossing over the top, while another version was colored in black, and with two golden stripes. Another outfit was completely different from the above; featuring a completely golden top, and black pants. A fourth outfit featured Jackson with a golden, glittery top and two black striped crossing over it, and blue pants.

Gallery [ ]

• After the Oslo, Norway concert, " The Way You Make Me Feel " and " Bad " weren't performed for the rest of the tour, although the songs did return for the first 4 concerts in Tokyo. This also became the final performance of "Bad" Jackson ever gave.
• " Workin' Day And Night " and " Beat It " were taken out of the setlist in the third leg. The cherry picker that was used for "Beat It" in the first and second legs was then used for " Black or White " in some concerts in the third leg.
• " Rock with You " and " Remember The Time " were taken out of the setlist due to wardrobe malfunctions.
• Rehearsals for the tour have taken place in Jackson's Neverland home and at Culver City Studios. Footage of the rehearsals can be found on YouTube. [1] [2]
• The " We Are the World " interlude in the 1993 shows was extended, starting with the band and the backup singers singing along with the crowd.
• In some early 1992 shows " Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' " and "Beat It" were performed in their original key.
• Diana Ross was in the attendance on the Oslo show on July 15th 1992.
• Elizabeth Taylor was in the attendance on the Stockholm show on July 17th 1992.
• " Man in the Mirror " was taken out of the setlist of 1993, but was performed in Argentina (first and second night, on the third he had a headache and didn't perform it. He had added it due to the Argentinian audience's warmth according to what their people had told us), it was also performed at the last concert in Mexico. Contrary to popular belief, "Man in the Mirror" was not performed on any night in Brazil or Israel. It is believed by the words of the public that "Man in the Mirror" was also performed during the concert in Chile.
• During " Heal the World " in Bangkok, Michael wore the white shirt from "Man in the Mirror".
• The magic trick at the end of " Thriller " was not performed at the third leg and at select first leg shows.
• Michael cut his finger during the performance of " Jam " in the Copenhagen show, prompting Michael Bush to put a bandage on Michael's finger during " Human Nature ".
• The silver jacket that Michael wore during "Jam" in the 1992 shows (except for Munich and 7 Tokyo shows), was used for the Jackson 5 medley in the 1993 shows. It was confirmed thanks to a photograph that it was used in Tokyo (December 24).
• The original black jacket of "Jam" was only used in Munich and in possibly 7 concerts in Tokyo 1992. This jacket has 3 other versions. One of these was used in the 1993 Superbowl . Another version was used only in the first concert of 1993. And the final version was used during the rest of 1993, during the photo session of the album HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I in 1994, the Royal Concert 1996, and it was last used for Michael's scan for a video game in 1999.
• " Will You Be There " had 3 different endings during the tour: in one Michael would be joined by a female dancer in a angel costume (similar to MTV 10th Anniversary performance in 1991); in another one Michael would be joined by a girl who would do sign language and in the final one he would finish the song alone.

18 photos of Michael Jackson performing in Leeds Roundhay Park in 1988

The King Of Pop performed in Leeds as part of his Bad world tour

• 05:00, 14 NOV 2021

The undisputed King of Pop himself came to Roundhay Park in Leeds in 1988 and put on an unforgettable show. Thousands flocked to the epic 18-song concert which was part of the Bad world tour.

It featured many of Jackson’s smash hits such as Thriller, Beat It, Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, Dirty Diana, and he even performed the odd Jackson 5 song or two much to the fans' delight.

The outdoor gig was put on at the very peak of his career, just one year after he released Bad, a song that earned him a Grammy and a Soul Train Music Award following its release.

The outfits were quintessentially 80s - for the fans, MJ and his crew as you'll see below!

Dangerous World Tour

• Edit source
• View history

The Dangerous World Tour was Michael Jackson's second concert tour. The tour took place from June 27, 1992 to November 11, 1993.....

The 69 concert dates of the tour attracted more than three million fans & the staging of the concert sets took nearly three days to set up. There were 20 trucks of equipment that were shuttled on cargo planes to countries around the world.

Michael ended up cutting the remainder of his tour short due to the stress from the child sexual abuse allegations levelled against him.

Tour Overview [ ]

Following the huge success of Michael's first solo world tour, Bad World Tour (where he earned over $125 million), the star claimed that he would not tour again and would concentrate on making films and records instead.

On February 3, 1992 in a Pepsi press conference, it was announced that he would be touring again. The announcement coincided with a new deal between Michael and Pepsi with a reported $20 million deal to sponsor the tour.

In an interview, Michael stated, " The only reason I am going on tour is to raise funds for the newly formed Heal the World Foundation, an international children's charity, that I am spearheading to assist children and the ecology. My goal is to gross $100 million by Christmas 1993. I urge every corporation and individual who cares about this planet and the future of the children to help raise money for the charity. The Heal the World Foundation will contribute funds to paediatric AIDS in honour of my friend, Ryan White. I am looking forward to this tour because it will allow me to devote time to visiting children all around the world, as well as spread the message of global love, in the hope that others will be moved to do their share to help heal the world ."

" Michael's show, I loved ," said Janet Jackson. " The only thing – and I told him – that I wish he had done was to play more songs from the new album. And I wish he had played 'Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough'. He goes, 'I know, Jan, and the other brothers told me that, but you know what? I was really pressed for time.' And that's the thing, when you become so busy. So it was pretty much the same show as he's been doing for some time ."

Preparations & Set Designs [ ]

The stage used for the tour required more time to set up than before. Equipment, which in total weighed over 100 tons, required two Boeing 747 jet aircraft and multiple lorries to transport to each venue.

For the tour's design, Michael was influenced by the uniform worn by the military. For "Jam", the first performance on the set list, He wore two variations of a faux-military uniform.

During the 1992 leg, the uniform was a grey-green jacket with a one bolted strap which sparkled with multicolour.

For the Tokyo and 1993 leg, Michael wore a black uniform with three gold bolted straps, one going from his collar to his waist in one direction and the other two in another; he also used similar costume at the first Dangerous tour concert in Munich, the Super Bowl XXVII halftime show in 1993, and later at the Royal Brunei Concert in 1996.

The tour also incorporated several stage illusions. The Dangerous era was considered one of Michael's best.

Each concert on the tour ended by a stuntman, Kinnie Gibson, who secretly switched with Michael as he kneels down a trap hole in the stage, dressed in a full astronaut costume (therefore appearing as Michael Jackson), flying out of the arena using a rocket belt.

Each concert also began with an illusion-like stunt dubbed "the Toaster" in which following the ringing of bells and the roar of a panther, Michael catapults on to the stage through a trap door in the front, sending off pyrotechnics that electrified the crowd.

" That opening was kick-ass ," admired Janet Jackson. " I'm sitting in the sound tower and all the kids are everywhere. And when he jumped out of whatever the hell that thing was, I was yelling so loud, the kids in front of me were looking back and I didn't even know it. My friend Tina is saying, Jan, they're looking at you. Because I was going, Fuck yeah, Mike! That was the shit to me. That was so bad-ass. Why didn't I think of that? When he thought of that shit, he hit it. "

A similar version of "the Toaster" stunt was used in the beginning of Michael's Super Bowl XXVII Halftime Show performance in 1993.

During the 1992 leg, the transition from "Thriller" to "Billie Jean" was another stage trick.

When Michael walks into two pillars, he secretly switches with a werewolf-masked backup dancer while he changes for "Billie Jean."

The backup dancer posing as Michael is placed into a coffin which disappears when dancers posing as skeletons and zombies drape a cloth over the coffin and pull it out. He appears fully dressed for Billie Jean in the upper stage level as it lowers down.

The coffin portion of this stage illusion was removed in some of the 1992 leg shows and the entire 1993 leg of the tour, and replaced with the Michael Jackson impersonator and the backup dancers performing an encore of the "Monster Breakdown" (the dance sequence in "Thriller").

The Show [ ]

The original set list for the 1992 leg featured " The Way You Make Me Feel " and " Bad ", but these were taken out after the eighth concert in Oslo, Norway. However, these two songs were returned for the first six performances in Tokyo, Japan.

During the Europe leg in 1992, MTV was allowed to film backstage and broadcast six fifteen-minute episodes of the tour. The show was called "The Dangerous Diaries" and was presented by Sonya Saul.

MTV released footage of "Billie Jean" and "Black Or White" at the first show in Munich. "Billie Jean" was released with 2 different versions, one by MTV as a special, and the other on the "Dangerous Diaries" documentary.

Both versions have placed a snippet of Michael's original a cappella recording for "Billie Jean" over the live vocals when he throws his fedora.

Michael sold the film rights to his October 1, 1992 concert in Bucharest, Romania to HBO for $21 million.

The deal was the highest ever paid for a live concert. The concert was broadcast live on radio and shown on television across 61 countries and received the highest TV ratings in the history of the HBO network, in which Michael was honoured with a CableACE Award.

In 2004, the concert was released on DVD as part of Jackson's The Ultimate Collection box set. It was released again in 2005 as the separate DVD "Live in Bucharest: The Dangerous Tour." The footage used on the released version is actually a mixture of footage from Bucharest – The BBC Broadcast, HBO live telecast (pay per view) and the HBO TV version.

The Dangerous tour was met with some backlash by music critics and fans because of Jackson's increased habit of lip syncing his live performances.

The Toulouse, France concert performed on September 16, 1992 featured a special instrumental performance of the first half of the song "In the Closet" as an interlude between the songs " Heal the World " and " Man in the Mirror ".

Princess Stéphanie of Monaco (who was the "Mystery Girl" in the actual song) was in attendance at this concert. This concert marked the first and only time that this song was performed during this tour.

On December 31, 1992 during the New Year's Eve concert in Tokyo, Japan, Slash made a special guest appearance for the performance of " Black or White ". Slash also made a special appearance for "Black or White" at the concert in Oviedo, Spain in September 1992.

On August 29, 1993, Michael performed in front of 47,000 on his 35th birthday in Singapore.

During his visit to Moscow in September, he came up with the song "Stranger in Moscow" which would be released on his 1995 album HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I . It was during a time when Jackson felt very alone, far away from his family and friends, yet every night throughout his tours fans would stay by his hotel and support him.

Michael performed a free concert at the Jerudong Park Amphitheatre in Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei on July 16, 1996.

The concert was in celebration of the fiftieth birthday of Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei and was attended by the Brunei royal family. This concert resembled the Dangerous tour with the addition of HIStory songs, " You Are Not Alone " and " Earth Song ".

Super Bowl XXVII Halftime Show [ ]

Unlike many previous years, Michael was the only performer in the entire Super Bowl XXVII halftime show.

The show started with him dancing on certain jumbotrons, followed by impersonators that posed on top of the screen, which gave the illusion of Jackson moving from one side of the stadium to the other. Then Michael himself catapulted on stage and simply stood frozen in front of the audience.

Jackson's set consist of a medley: "Jam" (with the beginning of "Why You Wanna Trip on Me"), "Billie Jean" and "Black or White".

The finale featured an audience card stunt, a video montage showing Michael participating in various humanitarian efforts around the world and a choir of 3,500 local Los Angeles area children singing "We Are the World", later joining him as he sang his single "Heal the World".

It was the first Super Bowl where the audience figures actually increased during the half-time show.

The selection of Michael for the halftime show was in response to sagging interest in recent performances, notably in the two years immediately prior.

The NFL and FOX network officials decided it was necessary to sign top acts for the halftime in future years to boost future viewership and interest. The NFL donated $100,000 to Michael's Heal the World Foundation.

Dangerous World Tour

The Dangerous World Tour was the second world concert tour by American singer Michael Jackson and was staged to promote his eighth studio album Dangerous . The tour was sponsored by Pepsi-Cola . All profits were donated to various charities including Jackson's own " Heal the World Foundation ". It began in Munich , Germany , on June 27, 1992, and concluded in Mexico City , Mexico , on November 11, 1993, playing 69 concerts in Europe , Asia and Latin America . Jackson performed in stadiums across the world with all being sold out in countries in Asia, Latin America, and Europe. At the tour's end, it grossed over $100 million and was attended by 3,500,000 people. [3]

Europe and asia (1992), super bowl halftime show (1993), eurasia and latin america (1993), broadcasts and recordings, opening acts, cancelled dates.

The October 1, 1992, concert in Bucharest, Romania was filmed for broadcast on the HBO network on October 10. Jackson sold the film rights for the concert for $20 million, then the highest amount for a concert performer to appear on television. [4] The special, Live in Bucharest: The Dangerous Tour , earned Jackson the second of two CableACE Awards of his career, this one for Outstanding Performance Musical Special. [5]

On January 27, 1989 [ verification needed ] , Jackson finished his Bad tour , his first as a solo artist, which had grossed over $125 million. Initially he planned not to tour again and concentrate on making albums and films. Following the release of his eighth studio album Dangerous in November 1991, a press conference was held on February 3, 1992 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City to announce the Dangerous World Tour. [6] [7] The event, attended by 200 people, was organized by Jackson's sponsor Pepsi with the artist also present. Jackson explained his sole reason for touring once more was to raise funds for his newly-formed Heal the World Foundation to aid children and the environment. He aimed to raise $100 million for the charity by Christmas 1993. [7] It was revealed that Jackson planned to perform across Europe , Asia , Latin America , and Australia , with no dates in the United States or Canada . [6] Jackson commented: "I am looking forward to this tour because it will allow me to devote time to visiting children all around the world, as well as spread the message of global love, in the hope that others will be moved to do their share to help heal the world". [8]

In June 1992, a Russian Antonov AN-124 cargo jet, then the world's largest operating airplane, was booked to transport the equipment and stage set from Los Angeles to London for the opening European leg. [9] However, problems regarding its civilian aircraft certification led to Jackson using a Federal Express Boeing 747 instead. [10] Upon arrival, the equipment was transported across Europe by 65 lorries. [9] The cargo included 1,000 lights, 10 miles of electrical cable, 9 video screens, and 168 speakers. [11] Around 2 tons of clothing was transported. The outfits were designed by Michael Bush and Dennis Tompkins, who worked with Jackson to gain an idea on what he wanted, and aimed to "bring his ideas to life". [12] Two outfits were 9 feet tall, 7 feet wide, and weighed 40 lbs each, with fibre optic lights controlled by a computerised laser. One jacket was fitted with a battery belt generating 3,000 volts to light the 36 strobe lights on it. Another had hidden flaps to conceal explosive effects. [12] 1,000 yards of fabric from Europe was used to make the costumes, including a black and gold outfit for Jackson which included 18-karat gold. [12] The costumes alone cost $2 million. [13]

The show incorporated various stage illusions. Among them was the "toaster" effect where Jackson entered the stage on a rapidly rising catapult from underneath, sending off pyrotechnics at the same time. His sister Janet Jackson said: "That opening was kick-ass. I'm sitting in the sound tower and all the kids are everywhere. And when he jumped out of whatever the hell that thing was [...] the kids in front of me were looking back and I didn't even know it." [14] Most of the 1992 shows included a stage trick during the transition from " Thriller " to " Billie Jean ", whereby Jackson walks into two pillars and is secretly switched with a werewolf-masked backup dancer disguised as himself while he changes outfits for "Billie Jean". The masked "Jackson" is placed into a coffin which disappears when dancers posing as the skeletons and zombies drape a cloth over the coffin and pull it out. Jackson then appears on an upper stage level and sings "Billie Jean". When the full trick was not performed, it featured a sequence with the Jackson impersonator and the backup dancers performing dances from "Thriller". In some concerts, the Jackson impersonator would go back stage after singing the main chorus of the song, instead of doing a reprise of the "Thriller" dance, and the Zombie backup-dancers would do a reprise of the dance by themselves. Another such illusion was used to transition to " Beat It " from " Working Day and Night ".

This was the first tour to have Jackson doing "the lean" during " Smooth Criminal "; the song was part of his Bad tour set list, but its choreography did not match the music video (which only premiered on TV during the second American leg of the tour).

During the Europe leg in 1992, MTV was allowed to film backstage and broadcast six fifteen-minute episodes of the tour. The show was called The Dangerous Diaries and was presented by Sonya Saul. MTV released footage of "Billie Jean" and " Black or White " at the first show in Munich. "Billie Jean" was released with two different versions, one by MTV as a special, and the other on the Dangerous Diaries documentary. Both versions have placed a snippet of Jackson's original a cappella recording for "Billie Jean" over the live vocals when Jackson throws his fedora.

During the Cardiff concert performed on August 5, 1992, the show was temporarily halted between " She's Out of My Life " and the "Jackson 5 Medley" due to heavy rain, with a message being sent out over the speakers. Jackson also had to stand on a towel to keep balance during " I Just Can't Stop Loving You ". The Toulouse, France concert performed on September 16, 1992, featured a special instrumental performance of the first half of the song " In the Closet " as an interlude between the songs " Heal the World " and " Man in the Mirror ". Princess Stéphanie of Monaco , who was the "Mystery Girl" in the actual song, was in attendance at this concert. This concert marked the first and only time that this song was performed during this tour, although it was performed on his next tour .

Between the two legs of the tour, Jackson performed a brief but very widely seen and highly acclaimed concert at the Super Bowl XXVII halftime show on January 31, 1993. The National Football League donated $100,000 to the Heal the World Foundation in lieu of payment to Jackson. [15]

The 1993 leg of the tour started in Bangkok, Thailand on August 24, the same day that accusations against Jackson of sexual abuse were made public. The September 1, 1993, concert in Singapore was scheduled for August 30, 1993, but was rescheduled due to Jackson collapsing before the show. During his visit to Moscow in September, Jackson came up with the song " Stranger in Moscow " which would be released on his 1995 album HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I . It was during a time when Jackson felt very alone, far away from his family and friends, yet every night throughout his tours fans would stay by his hotel and support him.
