If all goes according to plan there will be not one, but two tribute concerts for Michael Jackson at London’s O2 Arena this August. The date for the first is Aug. 29, which would have been Jackson’s 51st birthday.
“As the schedule stands right now, there will be a second show on Aug. 30,” said a source involved with the scheduling.
Jackson’s brothers, Jermaine, Jackie, Tito and Marlon, have been involved in “every part of the concerts’ planning process” according to the source, and they have good reason to be: they’ll be performing at the shows, too. Expect to see the Jackson 4 perform a medley of the Jackson 5’s greatest hits.
A plan to do a tribute show was first announced at a meeting of “This is It” tour cast and crew on June 27. At that meeting, tour director Kenny Ortega told the cast and crew that the memorial concert would be “what Jackson would have wanted.”
According to the current schedule, rehearsals will take place in Los Angeles the first two weeks of August, and they’ll move to London the week before the concerts.
AEG has yet to make an official announcement confirming the plans.
