A guy/gal has posted this comment on youtube:
This footage is from the Mid-South Coliseum, the Jacksons never played the Orpheum Theater, Foxxy and Sister Sledge open the show, Rick James came out on stage during "We Are Family" and shocked the crowd, but The Jacksons took the building to a whole different level as you can see, there is footage of their show that was broadcast on a local TV program like a week later, sorry we didn't have VCR's in 1979, I talked to the host of the show years later and he said he still had the 8mm footage in storage maybe this is some of it without sound, like I said in another post he also got on their tour bus and filmed with them leaving the Coliseum parking lot waving to fans, I remember this stuff like yesterday, the same tv show did a feature on The Bar-Kays when they played the Coliseum the same year I have some of the raw footage from that episode I got in a trade years ago, saying all this to say, I think I might try to get back in touch with the tv host again now
Interesting. He also said that ABC has the full coliseum show from the diane sawyer clip.
