This is it: MJ fans can have money back or keep souvenir tickets

London, June 30 (IANS) Promoters of Michael Jackson's planned London concerts said Tuesday fans who bought tickets can either have the money back or keep the souvenir ticket as collectors' items.

Promoter AEG Live said the tickets for the sold-out comeback concerts, titled This Is It, feature 3D graphics "inspired and designed" by the music legend, who died last week at the age of 50.

An estimated 800,000 people paid 50 to 75 pounds to watch Jackson perform 50 concerts at London's 02 Arena, BBC said.

The company said the original tickets -- featuring special images which give them a 3D moving effect -- will become collectors' items.

AEG president Randy Phillips said: "The world lost a kind soul who just happened to be the greatest entertainer the world has ever known.

"Since he loved his fans in life, it is incumbent upon us to treat them with the same reverence and respect after his death."

Fans have until Aug 14 to take up the offer of receiving the original tickets and more information will be available at www.michaeljacksonlive.com from Wednesday.
