Cómo me encantaría ver videos de los ensayos del Victory Tour.

How do you make the Victory Tour instrumentals? What drums do you use?

Wow, I don't know when you wrote this question ... if it was long ago, sorry for the delay.

I make the instrumentals with some sounds from my keyboard (Almost Wk 255) and some drum sounds are from FL Studio. Usually I try to get the original guitar tracks because I don't know how to play the guitar haha.

“Being on stage is magic. There’s nothing like it. You feel the energy of everybody who’s out there. You feel it all over your body. When the lights hit you, it’s all over, I swear it is.”

~Michael Jackson

Prince Tributes @ BET

If you have not seen the three tributes to Prince on the 2016 BET Awards you are missing something special. Sheila E. channeled Prince, Janelle Monae was a burst of energy and Jennifer Hudson just owned the place.

Michael Jackson was a book-loving intellectual — with more than 10,000 classics in his vast Neverland library.

Bob Sanger said the Liberian Girl singer was fascinated by philosophy and history — and covered his books with notes.

Sanger — the pop king’s lawyer for 16 years — said: “Michael was extremely well-read. We talked about psychology, Freud and Jung, sociology and black history.

“But he was well-read in the classics of psychology and history and literature. He was very intellectual but didn’t flaunt it.”

Sanger said he was surprised during a break at Michael 2005 child molestation trial when the star spoke of the execution of philosopher Socrates — who had to drink a brew made from toxic herb hemlock.

He said: “Michael says, ‘The jury system is much older than 200 years, isn’t it?’

“I said, ‘It goes back to the Greeks.’ He says, ‘Socrates had a jury trial.’ I said, ‘You know how it turned out for him.’ Michael says, ‘Yeah, he had to drink the hemlock.’ ”

“On weekends in the city, we often went to the movies or comic book stores, but what I remember most fondly about those visits was that Michael introduced me to the joys of books. I was dyslexic, and reading had always been tough for me, but when I complained that I didn’t like to read, he said, “Well, then you will be dumb and ignorant for the rest of your life. Frank, you can do anything you want in this world, but if you don’t have knowledge, you are nothing. If I gave you a million dollars right now, would you take it? Or would you want to have the knowledge of how to make that million on your own?”

I knew the correct answer to this question. “I’ll take the knowledge.”

“That’s right. Because with knowledge you can make the first million into two.”  Frank Cascio
