Jackson 5 Reunion Tour
When the news broke of a Jackson 5 reunion tour in 2008, it immediately prompted debate about Michael’s possible appearance. Germaine Jackson, spokesman for the group has said that while there is no date set as yet, they are looking forward to the tour and getting back to playing music. According to Germaine, Michael will join his bros’ for the tour now that Michael’s legal troubles have stopped making headline news.
Could there be more to the tour than just an outlet for the Jackson 5 to flex their musical might? Rumors of money woes for Michael and the rest of the Jackson family boys might be exactly what are sparking the reunion tour. Although Germaine had some success with a solo career, let’s face it, in the modern era it’s all about Janet Jackson when it comes to success in musical entertainment. According to some sources, Janet Jackson will appear in the tour even though she was never part of the Jackson 5. Given Janet’s worldwide success quite apart from the rest of the Jackson family, surely the Jackson 5 is counting on her to be the real drawing card. But will it be spectacular or just a spectacle? With Michael in the mix, it’s hard to say!
