There's been a lot of reporting on Michael Jackson's Arrowhead Victory Tour kickoff in KC long, long ago but not much perspective beyond that of simple fan appreciation. Fortunately, reporter Andy Smith recounts the event from the perspective of a newsie in 1984 when the NAACP convention, election year and the most popular entertainer on the planet addressed a controversy of an expensive ticketing system in the overwhelming limelight of adoring fans - A nice reflection of a bygone era when there was still a distinction between "journalists" and the rest of the public.
