The tour began on January 22, 1979 with their opening concert in Bremen, Germany. They visited 3 continents and 9 countries, playing 79 concerts in the United States alone. ==Overview== The tour began on January 22, 1979 in Bremen, Germany shortly after the release of the platinum-certified ''Destiny'' album the previous December. The tour visited three continents including concerts in Africa and Europe before taking on a 79-city tour in the United States. The Jacksons took a 4-month break from touring starting June 1979 so lead singer Michael Jackson could finish working on his solo album ''Off the Wall''. The first leg of the tour saw the Jacksons playing moderate sized arenas, such as the Valley Forge Music Fair in Philadelphia which seats 3,000, but after the release of Michael's multi-platinum ''album Off the Wall'' the brothers were forced to revamp their show and to start playing higher profile arenas, like the Philadelphia Spectrum which seats 16,000. For the second leg, additional songs were added to the setlist, most notably songs from Michael's album ''Off the Wall''. The opening act in the second leg was L.T.D. The tour grossed an estimated 7.5 million dollars. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Destiny World Tour」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
