It seems the Tonys gave the musical another boost. Tickets are selling out faster and at a higher price now. Glad to have helped.

Actually, the Tonys are named after American actress, director and co-founder of the American Theater Wing, Mary Antoinette 'Tony' Perry. Nothing to do with a guy.

"The Michael Jackson show may have lost the best new musical crown to “A Strange Loop,” but it won the best actor in a musical trophy for Myles Frost and pulled in $1,661,000 during the week after the Tonys. That’s the biggest box office jump last week on Broadway and a new high for the show."

The reaction to the show has me much more hopeful for a decent if not great reaction by the general public to a biopic.

Just after midnight Friday here in NZ and I casually remembered MJ The Musicals Broadway soundtrack was dropping today. It releases at midnight your local time I believe.
Aside from clicking above you’ll have to search for it though. Michael Jackson isn’t listed as an album artist so it won’t show up on his profile (unless they manually pin it or something).

I'm not that eager to listen to the musical versions knowing I'd think no one like Michael to sing his songs but it seems that album is not available everywhere.

Album will come out midnight your time for you. I feel this album will connect more to those who have seen the show, and thus can associate their memories/experience with it. Otherwise, to those who haven’t seen it, I guess it’ll feel more of a covers album really?

Completely forgettable, BUT I said the same thing when I heard the Lazarus soundtrack originally. Then I saw the show and transformed the album and now I listen to it regularly. Will wait and see if the same happens with MJ but don't see myself listening again before that.
Some interesting bits, the Earth Song/TDCAU mashup was unexpected. Band sound great. Doesn't really sound like a soundalike competition either, which I was afraid of.
