Fans moonwalked to the Century Stadium on Ethan Way for the very first showing of "This is it," Tuesday. Nearly 100 people wrapped around the theater in anticipation for the never-before-seen footage of Michael Jackson's rehearsals from what would have been his final 50-city tour. "You will never believe where I am at right now," echoed fans on cellphones as they stood in line. "I am about to see the Michael Jackson movie, it's the last one." Jackson's music played outside of the theater from the KSFM 102.5 van while fans of all ages sang and danced.

Fairgoers can enjoy the rides for only three tickets as parents and fans of Jackson take pictures with life-size cutouts of the King of Pop next to the Neverland sign. The joy on faces of the children as they were seated on Michael Jackson's Neverland rides was just what he would have wanted to see while celebrating his 51st bi

Sacramento radio severely suffered two more steps back in the last six weeks. First KWOD-FM (106.5) stopped playing Alternative music, held on to Nirvana and Green Day, then re-birthed as 106.5 The Buzz -- "Totally 90s." Anyone Else Puking? Many former KWOD listeners did their marketing for The Buzz by publicly complaining about the new format. This has put The Buzz in a situation that every radio station would love to be in -- Everyone knows they exist. But do they care? No. Will it last?
