The Jackson 5 Second National Tour is the second concert tour of The Jackson 5. The tour launched to support the brothers' third and fifth studio albums Third Album and Maybe Tomorrow. The brothers toured throughout the United States, with one show taking place in Toronto, Canada. The tour started in Miami Beach on January 2, 1971, and ended in Chicago on October 15, 1971.

Overview

edit

On January 20, Mayor Richard Hatcher of Gary, Indiana, proclaimed Jackson Street to be Jackson 5 Boulevard for the week of January 25 - 31, while the brothers performed two benefit concerts on January 31[1][2] for the mayor's re-election campaign. They also received the keys to the city of Gary, Indiana.[3] A ceremony would be held outside of the family's previous home for the upcoming TV special.

Their homecoming concert in Indianapolis on May 29 was made into a TV special titled Goin' Back to Indiana containing some footage of the concert. A soundtrack album that goes by the same name was released on September 29, 1971. Their performance of "Mama's Pearl" was used for the last track of Live at the Forum on disc one, but was never on the actual soundtrack album. Instead, it was replaced with the album/default version. This was also done with "ABC", "Never Can Say Goodbye", and "I Found That Girl" never made it on the album nor on the television special but was still performed. "Maybe Tomorrow" is rehearsed as seen on the TV special, the song rehearsed would be featured on the album as well.

A break was taken from the tour from April to May. The Jackson family would move to their Hayvenhurst house in Encino, Los Angeles within the San Fernando Valley.[4] On May 5, the entire family would officially move and settle their new estate.

Starting in the third leg, the setlist would be extended adding more performances. The album Maybe Tomorrow would start being supported during this part of the tour with songs from the album including "She's Good" and hit single by the same name as the album.

On October 10 in Chicago, The Temptations joined the Jackson 5 on stage.[5][6]

Attendance record

edit

During the tour's second leg, the brothers would make a stop in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, at the city's Summerfest. This concert would attract 80,000 spectators,[7] making it one of their highest-attended concerts at the time.
