So instead of writing, I was doom scrolling and came across the preview for the 1984 cult classic movie Voyage of the Rock Aliens:
As I watched, I paused and asked: Was that just Jermaine Jackson?
It was Jermaine Jackson. And instantly my mind began to spiral.
You know what, the Jacksons were arguably one of the biggest acts of the 1970's, why aren't the remaining Jacksons touring arenas?
Now let's step back for a brief moment, everyone knows that Michael Jackson is dead, but what about the rest of 'em?
Jermaine Jackson is arguably the 2nd most talented Jackson. Various sources cite him as active or retired. Whatever the case, the Jacksons are in his rear view mirror and Jermaine is laying low. The rest?
STILL TOGETHER!
Tito, Jackie, and Marlon are still touring. YouTube tried to sell me tickets to a show in Cincinnati coming up on November 1st. The venue? The Hard Rock Cafe.
Still....3 brothers seems a little short on harmony.
I assumed Randy Jackson was busy doing American Idol stuff. What do you mean wrong Randy Jackson? What did that guy on American Idol do then?
Forget it. Where's Randy Jackson from the Jacksons? Causing Family Drama.
Okay, okay, let's focus. Who is coming to Cincinnati?
Tito, Jackie, Marlon...and Taryll.
Who in the hell is Taryll? Apparently he's one of Tito's kids.
Tito's 3 sons were in the very originally named group 3T.
Apparently they were very popular. Where was I for THAT?
How many grandkids are there in the Jackson Clan? 27!!!
At least Taryll has a job, I guess, and isn't rolling out vanity projects like Paris.
Not me, but other people loved the Jacksons. Lots of bands have less original members, but bigger crowds.
You know what? The more I write, the more I am annoyed with myself.
This has got to be one of my worst Blog Posts ever....
I'll try harder tomorrow.
