Due to tour: 2008

The Jackson Five are to reunite for a tour, with Michael Jackson set to take part, according to his brother Jermaine.

He told BBC 6 Music that concert dates have been discussed and could take place "sometime in 2008".

The singer and guitarist also said that Michael will be involved adding: "He has to be. He is a Jackson. "He was at the meetings. We feel we have to do it one more time. We owe that to the fans and to the public."

The group last toured as The Jacksons - with six members - in support of the Victory album in 1984. The star also hinted at new material, saying that the band was currently in the studio.
