For $3,000 You Can 'Watch This Is It' With Joe Jackson

I kid you not. They're calling it a Platinum VIP Package and you get to see a screening of Michael Jackson rehearsing for his ill fated 'This It It tour' with Joe Jackson in Las Vegas on Oct. 27, plus an autographed copy of Joe's book, 'Joseph Jackson: Man in the Mirror, Father of the First Family of Music', dinner with Joe, pictures with Joe, plus a hotel room and an invitation for the screening's opening night party at the Palms Casino Resort Blue Moon Club.

And if that's not enough MJ for you, you can also bid on 12 strands of singed hair from when Michael got burned during the shooting of the 1984 Pepsi commercial. Joe doesn't have anything to do with the sale of the burned hair, but that's only because the executive producer on the set was able to scoop the hair up before Joe could get there. The hair is being auctioned off by International Autograph Auctions at the Edwardian Radisson Hotel at Heathrow in London on Oct. 17 and includes a transcript account of the incident and a signed color photo.
