Quote from a letter sent from Mrs. Katherine Jackson
gI am writing this letter in support of the Michael Jackson Tribute Concert in Tokyo at Budokan in honor of my late son, which is scheduled to be held in the fall of 2011. Japan was one of Michael's favorite places in the world. He loved visiting your beautiful country and always felt much love from his millions of fans. They were always very loyal which he appreciates very much. I am sure Michael's fans and admirers would feel emotional affection during this tribute.h
gMy family and I would be honored to know the many years Michael lived as a performer is being credited in Tokyo through your tribute. By means of having Michael's brothers headline the Tokyo Tribute, it would provide Michael Jackson's followers with a true and complete perspective of Michael's artistic career and life as a brother. Jackie, Jermaine, Tito and Marlon's experiences with Michael would provide the audience with an exceptional night of memorable materials at the Tokyo Tribute.h
