I just got an e-mail last night from the MCIFA Michael will miss the PBS special he was supposed to due memorial day on PBS. He is very dissapointed. He has a chest infection and the doctors told him he cannot fly. I hope he gets well soon.

Annual Memorial Day Concert#4

Posted: 5/22/03 at 4:20pm

This concert is put on every year down in Washington on the grounds of the Capitol Building. It's a musical tribute to those who gave their lives for our freedom. They usually have some wonderful performers. Too bad Michael won't be able to be there.

The most important thing is that he rest and get well. There will be other concerts/events.

Who will replace him at this late date? I read the link but I didn't see anything about that.

Michael, is one tough cookie, as a child he suffer from sickeness. Than he got a hiatus hernia from Phantom. He was in the hosiptal in Atlantic City after collasping at the Taj Majal and he damage his knee doing Barnum and broke his hip doing EFX in Vegas but always bounces back. He has had throat problems in the past and when he was doing DOTV. I am worried about his age. I hope he does rest and has a speedy recovery. I heard he is working on another project don't know what it is yet.As of now I have heard nothing about anyone replacing him for the memorial day event. For now as Michael would say as the Count Von Krolock Ciao Bella :)
