Local Jacko tribute in works - but shhhh, it's a secret

We couldn't resist this one:

Our friend Dr. BLT is working on a country version of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." Fair enough. 

But this is tribute is supposed to be a secret, even though the good doctor posted the news on Bakersfield Sound Underground

"If you haven't heard much about it, it is for good reason," says the post from this morning. "Being the operator of Bakersfield Sound Underground, I have a reputation to maintain as an underground blogger and an underground singer/songwriter.

The post continues: "Announcing the details, or allowing them to leak and, thus opening up the prospect of a media circus would blow that whole "underground" thing for me and other artists represented there.  We prefer to avoid photo ops and media leaks that would defeat our purpose: paying tribute to the King of Pop.  You will hear more about it once it's over, but when it's over, it will really be more like the beginning."

Alrighty.

Apologies in advance if this post triggers a media circus. Wouldn't want to bring wide attention to a tribute for the most widely known entertainer in the history of mankind.

Billie Jean is not my sister

She's just a cousin who claims that I am the one

But the dad is not her son

I recall Saturday Night Live lampooned that video with Little Billie Is My Love. Michael Jackson's death confers one last achievement he couldn't get in life: He became a good predatory pedophile.

"predatory pedophile": one trial; acquitted (i.e. found innocent).

What's the evidence?
