EVERYTHING WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AND MORE!!!
This night was unforgettable!! My mom, sister, and I purchased the Dinner package to see The Jacksons. Parking was easy, and fast, the dinner was so good, large portions (pork chop was, wow) and our waitress Lori, and waiter Halario were AMAZING!! Great personalities, probably 2 of the best we've ever had eating at a restaurant. The concert was great. We honestly couldn't have asked or paid for a better night. Everything was exactly what we could have wished for and more!! The only complaint I had was that we paid $118.00 per ticket to have these great seats, however there we're people standing along the outside of the fence maybe 10-15 feet away from me that did not pay for a seat. More of less they were believed to be regular fair people. A little disappointed that this area wasn't blocked off to only people who had floor seats.
The Jacksons in Concert
Nearly half a century after first wowing the world, music's most famous family continues to thrill audiences in every corner of the globe. Jermaine, Tito, Marlon and Randy — better known as The Jacksons — bring a heap of iconic songs in pop and R&B to fans wherever they play. Backed by a top-flight ensemble of players, the brothers deliver high-energy performances that cover the span of their unparalleled career as recording artists and hitmakers. Audiences can expect everything from buoyant early No. 1 singles like "ABC" and "I Want You Back," to the infectious grooves of "Dancing Machine" and "Blame It on the Boogie," to the anthemic likes of "Can You Feel It?"
The Jacksons Background
The Jacksons' story began in a humble home in Gary, Indiana, where the precocious talents of five young brothers — Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael — first made their mark at regional talent shows as The Jackson 5. Under the direction of father Joe Jackson and Motown mastermind Berry Gordy, the band became one of pop music's greatest sensations of the late 1960s and early '70s thanks to their irrepressible energy and astounding abilities as performers. Smashes like "ABC" and "I Want You Back" made the Jacksons a regular presence on the Hot 100. After their tenure with Motown ended, they'd return to the top of the charts with such disco-era powerhouses as "Blame It on the Boogie" and "Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)." The Jacksons' preeminence would continue even after youngest brother Michael attained superstardom and Jermaine had his own solo success. All of the Jacksons — including kid sister Janet — united for the first time ever to record 2300 Jackson Street in 1989. The four eldest brothers came together again in sadder circumstances in 2012 for the Unity Tour, their first concert tour since Michael's death in 2009. Jermaine, Tito, Jackie and Marlon continue to perform together worldwide, adding to a legacy that already includes such honors as the Jacksons' star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and their inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 and the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1999.
