Former First Family of R&B Takes Stage in 2009

October 31st, 2008

Former First Family of R&B takes stage in 2009. A long-rumored reunion tour between singer Michael Jackson and his Jackson 5 siblings has been formally announced. Jermaine Jackson, an original J5 member, says the former First Family of R&B has confirmed that they will perform together in the United States come 2009. Janet Jackson will reportedly open the show. The announcement follows rumors that many Jackson siblings have fallen upon hard financial times, ranging from working at grocery stores, in one case, to performing at local nightclubs in another. Michael Jackson has battled foreclosure to save his famed California ranch. In their 1970s heyday, the Jacksons were the world’s top singing group, inspiring fashion and even earning their own Saturday morning cartoon.

If your information and/or sources are accurate and legitimate then It’s unfortunate to hear about the financial woos of some of the members of the Jackson family. I’ve always been a true fan and strong supporter of the Jacksons and look forward to seeing them on tour!

Being a product of the 60’s and 70’s, I grew up to their music. As the original Jackson Five, their harmony is second to none. I don’t know if I will go to see them, but I truly hope the reunion is successful for all of them. There will never be another group that can or will top the Jackson Five . Love them

Its been confirmed that Mike aint gonna tour with em (unless he changes his mind at the last minute). Everybody still ready to line up for them tickets??



Lally Said on

I hope it happens. But I’m only going to see them if all 6 of them are there. I wouldn’t see Michael by himself and I wouldn’t see the Jacksons without Michael.



supadave Said on

I wish them a successful tour!! I can’t believe however that all that loot that was made by them is gone! They mad millions!!!!!!!!
Michael alone was worth 50 to 100 million!
