X17 photogs got this Xclusive set of pix and vid of Michael Jackson's brother Jermaine hitting up a gas station in LA Wednesday afternoon and he talked to us about upcoming funeral plans...

Jermaine states: "We're trying to put it together."

We can't help but think about what he said on the Today show this morning...

Isn't it inappropriate to let MJ's kids view his dead body? I don't think not letting them see it is "overprotecting" them, either.
