So.. Who's it gonna be?


One of the elder studio drummers:
John J.R. Robinson
Leon Ndugu Chancler
Rayford Griffin
Phaulino Da Costa
Nate Smith

Or one of the elder tour drummers:
Jonathan '''SugarFoot' Moffett
Ricky Lawson
Michael Blend


Or a new ''younger'' cat (like his ''young'' producers team with Akon and Georgio Tuinford)


Anyone has seen pics or vids from the rehearsels?
 
Moffett was slated to do the tour... and there were a ton more dates planned, not just London. That's a lot of work pulled out from under the band, dancers & crew. :(

Bermuda,

How would a typical tour of that magnitude work for the musicians? Would there be a minumum upfront advance or a daily wage to cover the rehearsels and pre-production time already put in or would the musicans wages be strictly based off of the tour's take?
 
Rehearsals would be salaried, but almost certainly just a percentage of the tour pay - especially with so many personnel in the MJ production - as box office revenues aren't normally turned over until each concert is completed.
