I had the pleasure of seeing inxs on they're kick tour, always a fan of michael, and like so many i felt such a strong connection to him. mabe in the next life.........
like Delia I did not go to see INXS out of loyalty to Michael but now I know this was wronge. Hope they tour again soon. Its only right to support the lads its what Michael would have wanted. love to you all. I love this site
he was such a beautiful man.
Hi Nancy!I saw INXS in Sacramento at the Radisson, and in mountain view at the mountain winery.I cannot tell you how much fun it was! You can e-mail me at inxsj4k@yahoo.com if you want and I will tell you more.
Wow, those were some touching postings!!!! It feels so good to visit this site and read all the wonderful stuff you guys says about Michael!! You know, one time I was real upset about Mike and I was telling my friend about it, and she said, 'maybe you shouldn't have watched that concert after all (you know, the one where I first heard Mike!!)'...but even though I get really sad about Mike sometimes, I wouldn't change it for anything...Mike has made me realise how truly precious life is, and how things can change so quickly...So even though I get really, really sad sometimes, I wouldnt change it for anything. God bless you all!!!
My daughter and her boyfriend had tickets to see INXS with Blondie at the Newcastle Arena recently.I refused to go - out of loyalty to Michael or so I thought. Anyway my daughter's boyfriend couldn't go at the last minute and I took his place just to keep her company. Waiting for them to start I felt very strange - I had seen them in June 97 just before Michael died at this very arena. I needn't have worried they were sensational and the bit with Michael in the background WOW!You should have felt the buzz in the hall, I hope they do this every time they tour. I now realise this music is too brilliant to be forgotten and Michael's music is being kept fresh and alive. Michael was the gentlest soul - I've got loads of his interviews on TV videod - and I know he'll be glad the lads are still performing, He loved them and will want the best for them. I love this site but it makes me cry to read all the loving messages. I love you Michael- now and always. Delia xxx
Hi Aidan! I knew that a guy couldn't possibly feel so deep and come here so often. But it doesn't matter at all as long as we keep his memory alive and love him for what he gave us and also because he was a wonderful human being! Now I'm listening to Michael's “Rooms for the memory” and is such a beautiful song,it goes straight to your heart.
But I'm going in a different direction and that is not why I came here today. I just want to thank you, Aidan for answering my post and in connection with what you said I have a confession to make. In 2001 Inxs had a concert in my country at a festival called Golden Stag. You cannot even imagine the shock, the amazement,I can't even find the right words to express what I felt the moment I saw on Tv a fragment from the video “Everything” announcing their concert.
At that time I didn't have the slightest idea that the guys had decided to continue with an unknown voice, a replacement. That's what popped up in my mind though I believed and still do that he can never be replaced.I could't understand.How could they possibly continue with somebody else other than Michael? I was so furious and I couldn't stop crying. I even thought of attending the concert in the exact way that you said that somehow, on the stage I might feel Michael's presence.And of course, I thought that if I saw the rest of the guys, in some strange way i could feel Michael closer, closer to the ones he sang with for almost 20 years. But then I reached the conclusion that it would have been simply impossible to see somebody else on the stage where Michael should have been and another thing: not hearing his voice?! I couldn't go through this as I knew I would have been crying during the entire show. I couldn't even watch the show on Tv though I wanted so bad to see Tim, Andrew, Jon Farris, Kirk and Garry. This made more clear that Michael wasn't here with us, he was only in our hearts.
So, as you can see losing Michael left strong scars.But one thing I know for sure:I'll love him and his music till my last day on this earth. What I really hope is that some day justice will be done and little Tiger will be left in the care of her grand-mother and aunt.This precious little girl should have been with her family and it tears me apart that she is not with the only persons in the world who could tell her what a great daddy she had, a very talentated man who enchanted the entire world with his divine voice! But I know in my heart that when she will grow up she will realize why Michael Hutchence is so loved and what he brought to us all. All my love to sweet Tiger, Tina Hutchence, Patricia Glassop and to all of you who love Michael and his legacy like I do! May all my kisses fly to you up there, Michael!
P.S. I also hope that I'll have “Never tear us apart” the theme at my wedding!

Hi Sonali, Nadaia, Alice, Michelle, and all the OTHER WONDERFUL Michael fans!! I've noticed how much more personal this site has become and I want everyone to know I love coming here daily to read how every one is doing and how Loved Michael is. Alice, I was so excited to see INXS last summer, but right when the excitment hit, I'd remember Michael wouldn't be there and my heart would sink. Literally, it made me so upset thinking I would never see him. But I knew how much I'd enjoy the music and seeing the other boys. So my boyfriend and I went and Jon.S did so well on stage. He just was himself and sang the songs. They had a slide show of Michael during “NEVER TEAR US APART” *I want that to be my wedding song someday* and I CRIED my eyes out, and I wasn't alone. There wasn't a dry eye in the entire place. I think it was the fact they talked about him, and shared memories, you could LITERALLY feel Micahel's presence. And after seeing them, I felt that I had seen MICHAEL himself. It was the most amazing feeling. I felt that was the closest I would get to Michael. I hope that if they come to your town/city that you get a chance to see them. You will love it!!!Just seeing how happy Jon.F, Andrew, Kirk, Garry and Tim were on stage playing together, you'll know what I mean. Just seeing THEIR happiness, it meant the world to me as a fan. That's what I wanted to see!!! I hope my message has helped somewhat. I love you all and wish you only the best! I look forward to hearing from you!! You're all wonderful and Michael watches down over all of us!! He's my angel!
Hugs and kisses:) INXS 4 ever!!!!

Sorry Kelli, I thought your name was Shelli. That last message was for you. Just wanted to know where and when you saw INXS and how you found out about it. Good day to all...
Shelli, I just read your comment. Where did you see INXS? I wish I had known that they had been in the US. Good to hear that the guys are still playing the music of INXS and are still bringing it to us, the fans. Unfortunately, I didnt know Michael had passed away until recently. In 1996 my husband and I had a son and he was born with many problems and our lives had been so caught up in getting him healthy. But when I saw his bio a couple of months ago, I was completely floored. It was the first time I had heard that Michael had passed away. I just cried. Literally cried through the whole program. And afterwards I just couldnt believe that Michael would no longer be here to sing, dance and whoa us with his awesome moves. God bless his family, friends and all the fans who miss him. He will always be in our hearts and minds....
i think this website is great because michael deserve this and lot more.and the worst thing is that he won't return and there are so many people like me that will miss him forever no matter what,we still love him.
All I can say is *WOW*
I love reading all the stories from people who met Michael, the way they describe him is awesome! I remember in the 80's going to the concerts & getting the mags each week & looking for new pics of Michael...He always took my breath away, he still does when i see a pic I have never seen before or when I see a pic of him & his minime.
I so wish he could have stayed. I know one day I will see INXS again play but I am resisting it because of the reality of it all will hit me that Michael is really gone. Even after all these years it is still so hard to believe that he is pysically gone!
I am going to start to get all sad so I will send my love to the family , friends & fans of the beautiful Micheal Hutchence.
Hi to all the regulars & thank you for your warm thoughts!

I recently purchased INXS “shine like it does”, the anthology, (1979-1997). Man did it take me back. Mainly becuase I had recently watched Michaels bio on VH1. I literally cried watching his bio and then listening to the INXS music put it all together. I didnt realize how much I appreciated and loved INXS and Michael's music. Just hits home and helps me remember my youth and how much I love music... their music. We miss you Mich, would have loved to go to another concert. Maybe in my dreams...
Hi Guys! I went to two INXS concerts last June. My husband and I got to talk with the guys for quite a few hours. I have to tell you that I heard and saw the miss of Michael! No, nobody will ever replace our loved Michael....However,I think a big part of the guys moving on is therepy,tribute,of course a love for music! and I think Michael would want them to! Jon Stevens did a awsome job. He has his own style,don't think he's trying to replace Michael.I'm so glad the guys are starting up again because it has made alot of people stop and remember Michael, and there music is great! Michael was mentioned alot by the guys, and yes....even by Jon S. Michael is so loved by the band and his fans, he will never be replaced by anyone. He will always be loved and remembered by us all.I even felt Michael at the concert. I think he would be proud and flattered. Michael was not a selfish man and had a great sense of humour...We love Michael.
Dear Sonali, after posting the previuos message I read yours entirely and it moved me so much. It made me remember (not that I've ever forgotten) how I discovered Michael &Inxs.
I thought until this day that I was so unlucky for discovering him and the guys at the last minute, that is with “Elegantly Wasted”.I always blamed myself for my age 'cause if I had been older I would have discovered them sooner.Now I'm 22 and looking back I remember seeing on MTV some of their videos:“Baby don't cry”, “Suicide blonde” and “The Strangest party” which I liked then and love now.Why in God's name it didn't ring any bell? I don't know.It just had to happen years later. I remember like it was yesterday when I first saw the “Elegantly Wasted” video. How beautiful was the singer and the voice, the voice! Such an amazing voice! Then I went an bought the album to learn from the radio a few months later the most shocking and devastating news ever! I couldn't believe! I simply couldn't ! What could be more sad than losing somebody that you had just found! I cryed for days and days and I still cry sometimes. But these beautiful messages that I read here give me a sense of comfort and it matters so so much that I'm not alone in this , that we all love him and his music, still playing it and thinking about him, keeping him alive in our hearts.
So I thank to God that I discovered Michael and Inxs when I did, 'cause despite the pain of this terrible loss my life would be so empty without their music, without Michael's beautiful voice! Michael, if you could hear my words and my thoughts running to you, I love you with all my heart!

Hi every one! Glad to see all these messages full of love for Michael!
I also read Aidan's message in which he said he went to an Inxs concert recently.Aidan, if you read this I have a huge favour to ask. Maybe you can help me 'cause I don't know if I'll ever get over this re-formation, though we all know that Michael will never be replaced by no one. I cannot get over this and maybe you can tell how to let go somehow. Michael, all my love to you up there!

Hard to believe it's been five years.I woke up crying at 4:00 this morning out of a dream about INXS and Michael.His music was such a part of my life,I had forgotten about his passing.I'm remembering all the good times Michael and INXS have brought into my life.A beautiful site,Thank you.
Rest In Peace, Michael
can't put in words how happy I am with all this messages. All this love is coming up to heaven,where I'm sure Mike smiles to us.Love him forever, best wishes to all the family, friends and fans of Michael.
Best wishes to sweet little Tiger Lily.

Michel we love you forever!!!!
Aidan, Kelli, Monica, thank you so much for your posts, they truly made me feel happy...its funny how I got to know about Michael...see, until last December, I wasn't really interested in rock music, and on TV they were advertising about playing an INXS concert (LIVE BABY LIVE)...I wasn't too interested. But that saturday night, I was switching channels and I came across the concert (I wasn't intending to watch it) and I watched Michael for about 2 seconds and I was like,“ Wow! This guy is REALLY fantastic!!” and for the rest of the concert I couldn't take my eyes off him!!!!! My little sister was also mesmerised, and she was like, “Hey! This guy's featured in the Guiness Book of World Records (1999)!!” So during a commercial we fished out the book and there was Mike, featured under 'Biggest Australian Rock Icon' and that was when I read about his death. I was in shock...I was watching him on TV, and he had thousands of people mesmerised, he looked so full of life and energy...and he was gone. The next few days I went around acting normal, but on the inside there was this terrible, terrible sadness and a sense of deep loss. Then I found this website, and I read about his father passing away and that night I just cried and cried and cried...I mean, the kind of energy that Michael had while performing...the curly brown hair, the endearing, sexy smile, the twinkling eyes, that awesome voice...there has never, ever been, and there never will be a performer like our beloved Michael Hutchence...but now I'm more at peace ( mostly after reading all your lovely posts!!) and I realise maybe its better this way, rather than have him living a life of misery...and now he's with his Dad, which is great! I feel so much happier now! Of course, every now and then I break down, but on the whole, I'm at peace. Love you SO much Mike, and you'll be in my heart and prayers forever!
Hi Sonali! In response to your question. Yes I truely think Michael is hearing us!!! I wrote this awhile ago, but I have to say it again...I always have loved INXS, but just with in the last two years I really started to get interested in Michael, I thought well, for starters I will order, JUST A MAN. To my surprise, I recieved it on his birthday,didn't know it was his b-day until I started to read it that day. As stupid as it sounds...one day I looked in the Australian death index, honestly I don't know why. I thought,“HEY” wonder if Mich is here? well I found him..it happened that he passed on that very day.I had know clue what day he did die. So Sonali, I know he's listening,probably laughing and wanting all of us to always remember....and we will Michael! We love you Shining Star.
I have yet to get Max Q, Underneath the Colours, and the movie Space Dogs, and then I should have about every video and piece of music I Mike has done, except for the Chile concert. Well, maybe. There is a Santa Claus out there with Michael's voice singing in it. I do not have it, but Tina H. if I come across it, I'd send it to you for little Tiger.
Love, Ang

Hello to everyone, again me, sorry I can't help it coming here so often. Aidan, Sonali, Michelle, your posts are so moving! I can recognize you now because you come so often! It's good to share this feeling with so many fans! Somebody (Michelle?) was writing about Max Q, and let me tell you: I struggled so hard to get that CD and finally I found an internet CDs store that had a copy, and I placed the order just yesterday, I can't wait to have it in my hands and enjoy it! I have never listened to any of the songs and I simply can't wait! I want to have all the material Michael recorded, I will keep on trying to have everything...
Well, that's all for today, all my love and friendship to the fans and for HIM:
Baby, you know I love you and I'll always will, sweet cute angel!

Hey everyone:) Hi Sonali:) I truly agree with you, Mike has to feel the love. He feels the tears, happiness and how lonely we can feel time to time. Thats why I believe he's our own angel now. He knows what we're thinking or feeling and I am sure he wants us only to be happy and listen to his voice whenever we're in need. He is so amazing. I miss him so much and wish that he could be here right now experiencing everything with his family, friends and fans. At least he can watch from above now. He also must be proud of little Tiger and how fast shes growing, and of INXS and the fact they have the strength and courage to start playing together again! *I saw them last JULY 4th and they were AMAZING!!!!One of the best concerts I went to!* Of course you miss Mike, but Jon did such an amazing job singing and they kept talking about Mike like he was there. It was so comforting!! You could truly feel his presence there! Amazing!
Well, I love u all and look forward to hearing from you!! Smile, Michael loves you;) hehehee I too am happy that his father is now with him. They have eachother! It warms my heart!! Love u all!!
INXS 4 EVER!!!
