Michael Jackson

14th July 1988  Wembley Stadium, London HA9

Artwork Title: Michael Jackson - Wembley - Roll 11B Frame 16

The mega stadium BAD world tour hit London at Wembley Stadium.

In front of a sold-out crowd of 72,000, which included Diana, Princess of Wales and Charles, Prince of Wales, M.J. strutted his stuff to great approval.

I was in the photographers pit at the very front of the stage, shooting for Sounds magazine and ended up falling into conversation with Kevin Cummins who was there for NME, a rival music publication who was standing next to me.

Kev asked me if he could come and use my darkroom after our allotted 3 songs and he came and processed and dried his film in my space in Wapping then headed back South London to print.

When the our respective magazines hit the newstands next Thursday the pictures that the editors used were absolutley identical!

Kev and myself must have pressed our shutter releaase buttons at exactly the same time and standing next to each other had the exact same shot. 

But then over and above that two seperate picture editors had chosen those identical shots.

Syncronicity if ever there was.
