- PEOPLE, Page 81Farewell, Fans (Maybe)By J.D. Reed

- When Michael Jackson moonwalked across a Los Angeles stage last
- week, a musical era may have ended. The pop phenom vowed that the
- final stop on his 17-month-long Bad tour would be his last concert
- date. Why the last? It's partly Michael mystique and partly that
- Jackson prefers to focus on films and records. Staying off the road
- may prove hard on the purse -- the 123 Bad concerts attracted 4.4
- million paying fans. But the reclusive star will hardly go broke
- working at home. The Bad album has sold 19 million copies, grossed
- a record-setting $125 million and yielded a new mark with five No.
- 1 hit singles. Not bad at all.
