The Jonas Brothers wave to their fans outside the day after their concert at General Motors Place on Wednesday morning (July 1) in Vancouver, Canada.
JJJ reader Sandy writes to us, “I saw the first show in Vancouver — it started late but it was sooo goood! I went to go see them the next day at the gates they came out for a min and waved and then we were told they were coming back out. About 50 of us [fans] waited for a half and hour and then we were told they weren’t coming. But we got to see Jordin Sparks; she’s so cute she came up to us with her puppy.”
Jenna adds, “We waited for the Jonas Brothers to arrive at General Motors Place. When they finally got there, they got out of there car to wave at people, but were then rushed into the building. My friend and I saw them putting up metal barrier gates, so we went over there. The security told us there wouldn’t be anyone famous coming, but about an hour later Jordin Sparks came and walked into the building. The security told us the boys were not going to be coming out but if her security guards came back out that meant the boys would be coming out. About two hours later, the Jonas Brothers came out. I held Joe’s hand for about 30 seconds, and they signed my friends CD!”
The JoBros will burn up Rexall Place in Edmonton, Alberta TOMORROW night @ 7PM.

“If the Jonas Brothers‘ first moment on the cover of Rolling Stone found them reaching the height of teen pop stardom, their latest — on stands this week — finds them pushing for an even loftier goal: musical credibility. (Click above for exclusive footage from their new RS cover shoot.)
“I think we are working to make that trade without having to give anything up,” Kevin Jonas tells Rolling Stone in our cover story. (Check out photos from their Rolling Stone cover shoot here.) “But I think it will take time, because of where we came from. I would honestly say to anybody, if you were in a band like us, you would take advantage of those platforms too. It’s easy for people to say, ‘No, I’m a real rock & roller,’ but I think you do what you’ve got to do.”
Our Jenny Eliscu spent time with the brothers in Los Angeles as they prepared to hit the road in support of their most ambitious album yet, Lines, Vines and Trying Times. The album, the tour and much of what the band does these days seems designed to help facilitate the leap from teen pop to contemporary rock. It’s a challenging feat that few have pulled off. (Check out our look at artists who managed to outgrow their pop roots.) But the brothers are working hard on what they know will be a long, slow march to credibility. Eliscu found Nick on point as the band’s creative lead, putting their touring band through their paces (his brothers have started calling him “Mr. President”), while Kevin helps to steer the Jonas business and image (he even built a foam 3-D scale model of the band’s new stage set, which now takes 180 people to assemble at each show).
“We have an operation around us that we run,” Kevin tells Rolling Stone. “It’s not run for us, or dictated to us. Everything that we do, we sign off on.”
But even with a strong operation and a lot of hard work, the band knows that teen idols rarely make the leap to “serious artist.” “Personally, I’m not in the band to say, ‘Hey, you need to respect us, take us seriously,’ because that’s kind of stupid,” Joe tells RS. “We’re doing it because we love it, and we don’t care what age group we attract. If they like our music, they like our music, and if they don’t, fine. We don’t need you like our music.”
Jenny Eliscu’s Rolling Stone cover story, “Boys to Men,” is on newsstands now”
“The Jonas Brothers kicked off their massive world tour this past weekend in front of an audience 50,000 strong at Dallas’ new Cowboys Stadium. The band’s set featured a brand-new three-octagon stage and more than 100 minutes of music culled from their new album Lines, Vines and Trying Times as well as older material, but it wasn’t until the encore that fans got the biggest surprise of the evening: Miley Cyrus, who’s reportedly once again dating Nick Jonas, hit the stage and sang with Nick for their Lines’ duet “Before The Storm,” the Dallas Morning News reports.
Rumors of Miley attending the show began circulating when Cyrus Twittered “In one of my favorite cities with my favorite people. Guess where I am and what I’m doing. I will never tell” earlier that evening. The Jonas Brothers were also joined onstage by opening act Jordin Sparks, who performed her new hit single “Battlefield” with the band. The set list also included A Little Bit Longer’s “Lovebug, “SOS” and a cover of Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.”
“Putting this show together is so much different than anything we’ve ever done before,” Nick recently told Rolling Stone when we hung out with the Brothers in the days before the performance. “We tried to add some musicians, some horn players and some string players, just to fill in the space, and fill in the sound as well.” The trio also boast that the entire audience is only 30 to 90 feet away from the performers at all times, making the concert more intimate for the fans.”
