Hi,
I had the pleasure and excitement of being involved in the film “Dogs in Space”. At the time Michael was just starting to make it as a big star internationally, and yet was truly humble and unpretentious.
I am however concerned by how this web site portrays Michael as some sort of super human being. I think it's a sad state of affairs when people choose to idolise any one person, in particular a person who was so self-destructive. What is even more sad is that his own family seem to idolise him as a god (what about the rest of your family? Surely they've accomplished something).
Furthermore, he was not a one man band, the synergy between the other members of INXS and Michael was paramount and that beautiful thing seems to be somehow forgotten. If you have to idolise one of the band members, why not look to Jon Farriss (my personal favourite), who maybe doesn't publicise his self interests but is certainly a wonderful example of a human being in terms of his spiritualism and vegetarianism from a very young age.
I don't mean this email with any disrespect, I just feel in my heart that Michael would want someone to challenge the one-sidedness of this web site.
