Tour will honour Michael Jackson's life


MICHAEL Jackson's siblings Tito and Rebbie Jackson are to visit Bristol as part of a new live tour paying tribute to the superstar.
The tour, starting in March, will honour the pop icon's life and is called A Jackson Named Michael: Remembering a Legend.
TV star and producer David Gest, who was one of Jackson's closest childhood friends, will be joined by the late singer's brother and sister as well as singer Deniece Williams, famous for her number one UK hits Let's Hear It For The Boy, Free and Too Much, Too Little, Too Late.
The shows will include music and interviews, with never-before-told details about Michael Jackson and his phenomenal career.
Williams, a Jackson family friend for nearly five decades, grew up near the Jackson family home in Gary, Indiana.
She will perform a number of her hit tunes along with renditions from Rebbie Jackson, who made the top 10 in the US with her hit entitled Centipede.
Tito Jackson will perform some of the classic Jackson 5 and the Jacksons hits including Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground) with the audience joining in.
The setting for each show will be intimate with just a trio, pianist and movie screen, while the stage itself will be adorned with images of Michael.
The tour will run across the UK but it is not yet known which venue will be used for the show in Bristol and the date is still to be confirmed.
