As the late music legend's brothers Jermaine, Jackie, Tito and Marlon have just recently announced, the remaining members of the Jackson 5 are joining forces for Unity Tour 2012.

The tour, a 27 city run, will be kicked off by a performance in Louisville, KY, on June 18.

The Unity Tour 2012 marks the first time the brothers have toured together since the Victory Tour in 1984.

Although the Michael Jackson hologram will probably not make it to the Unity Tour 2012, it could very well be a part of a bigger tour that the Jacksons are planning for next year, according to Eonline.

"It could have Michael-absolutely," Jackie Jackson told Eonline. "Wouldn't that be wonderful? As a matter of fact, we had that idea two years ago for Michael's Cirque du Soleil show," he added

The Jacksons, while having scheduled a full tour, are also gearing up to release a new album with their recently reunited record label, Motown.

As setlists for the Unity Tour 2012 are still in the works, the Jacksons are in the process figuring the best way to please the fans.

"There are so many songs," Jackie said. "That's the hardest part because we want to include all the favorites and not leave anything out.

And while fans would love nothing more than to see a Michael Jackson hologram rise up from the stage, fans will most likely have to settle for a couple of his songs -- for now.

"We're going to sing some of Michael's stuff, too. We're going to honor him on the stage. He'd want us to do our thing to the best of our ability," Jackie added.

The Jacksons first achieved international stardom with their late brother, Michael, as the Jackson 5. They then became the first group to have their first four singles hit number one on Billboard.

The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 and hopes set another milestone with their Unity Tour 2012.

Now I wasn't really interested in the brother's tour before. However, this might change things...however, I'm also wondering if it's just happening because too many of Michael's fans won't go to their show because Michael isn't here...The scales are weighing this out...a really neat technology to have Michael is concert virtually...or an expensive publicity stunt to get more people to go to their show. Hmmmm...this is something that just may work for the brothers. Maybe they are having issues on who would get to sing Michael's parts? That would certainly solve that issue. But yet I can’t get past the “using Michael’s image to get people to their show” thing… What do you guys think? It’s sounds pretty cool and I’d love to see it. But, I don’t know? Am I digging too deeply into this?

Very true. I guess I'm just being an overprotective fan. If anyone is entitled to use his image in such a way it would be his family. Perhaps this is a way to help them cope. It can't be easy for them moving forward with a show and having him not physically there. In spirit yes, I do believe that.

It is kind of a tough call isn't it? Part of me wants to see it and part of me says no. I think maybe it's too strong of a reminder to us that he's really gone. Almost symbolizes a "virtual replacement" of sorts.

For me it's like why can't the brothers just do the tour without Michael. I mean Michael turned them down while he was alive...
