You Have Got To Be Kidding Me

I was watching the news one night half asleep when I heard the lady on the TV say two amazing words JONAS BROTHERS! I sat up with the biggest dorky smile ever and screamed a huge girly scream. She said that they, meaning the Jonas Brothers, were coming to Detroit to play a concert on January 18Th. AHHHHHHHH!

I ran to my computer and google searched it to find any information on the concert. I think the website was the Detroit Free Press or something. I read the long article as fast as I could totally excited until I got to the price.................$400.

Apparently the concert was free when you bought a ticket for the auto show for $400. NOOOOOOOOOOO! I was crushed. I couldn't believe it. I diffidently could not pay that much for the tickets. If I had that much money I would buy the tickets in a second but its pretty much impossible.

I cant believe it, the Jonas Brothers are coming to Detroit I cant see them. Its heart breaking. I seriously need a miracle.

Ah Memories

* ok this is going to sound awkward but i have just been informed by my mom and sister that it was December 5th that I was the Jonas Brothers in concert! I'm such a dork how did i forget this!? lol. But at least I was only one day off. So that means on this day one year ago, two days ago my sister and I saw the Jonas Brothers in concert!


ok so on this day December 6th, exactly on year ago was one of the best days of my life.

It was the day that my sister and I saw the Jonas Brothers for the first time! We were seeing then in concert along with Hannah Montana. Are seats were really far back like back left corner last row on the side ( but its ok because I'm 5"10 and I would have blocked any little kid behind me) and were not complaining because we were just super excited to be there like we were counting down the days since we got the tickets.

Even though we were way way way back and we knew the Jonas Brothers couldn't actually see us we decided to make a poster. It said OH SNAP ITS JONAS BROTHERS! It was hot pink and we wrote in black marker, we had to go through 4 markers just to finish the sign. I guess we were just to excited so we weren't thinking properly because they obviously weren't going to read it. But oh well we were so proud of are little pink poster!

We had gotten are shirts the night before at the arena because they were doing a presale. So all me and my sister had to do after we got there was find are seats. My dad was going to drive us and of course he was late picking us up but its ok because we assumed he would be late, so we told him to pick us up to leave about 15 minutes earlyer then we had to leave are house. It was around dinner time and traffic leading up to the arena was really bad. It was like every kid and teenager was at this concert! In all the excitement of leaving and making sure I looked good for the concert I didn't eat enough food to last me through the concert. And if I don't eat I faint. I was sitting in the car and I looked around to see if there were anyplace I could get food. YES! MacDonald's! I said " Dad I'm starving could we please stop at MacDonald's?" and before he could even answer my little sister yells "NO YOU DON'T NEED IT!" I was shocked to say the least. I guess she was nervous that we might miss the Jonas Brothers because we heard stories of people at other shows that couldn't get in in time and missed there performance. So after 2 minutes of arguing I assured her we wouldn't miss them. Ah HELLO if i thought there was even a slight chance of missing the Jonas Brothers I would have just ate something on the way home.

Finally we were at the arena. I had never seen so many little kids in blond wigs in my entire life! But it was so awesome! You could tell everyone was excited like you could feel the energy in the room. After about 40 minutes of waiting in are seats the lights went off! The arena was pitch black! And all you could here was high pitched screaming! The lights on the stage turn on and smoke starts to come from the ceiling and we hear the intro to "Kids of the Future" one of the best moments of my life. I cant even explain how excited I was. My heart was pounding. I tried to tape as much as I could but I noticed my hands were shaking so much and my camera couldn't handle it being so far away all my pictures were a little blurred. Luckily they have those screens so the people in the way back can see the stage and the OH MY GOD! I couldn't believe I was seeing them in real life! I have only seen them on YouTube and on TV but there they were in real life! Basically In the same room as me! AHHH! My sister and I got so into the music that we were dancing around and screaming like crazy. About half way into there set I looked around and noticed that my sister and I were the only ones standing in are section and diffidently the loudest. I felt a little embarrassed for a second but then I totally didn't care.

Even though the concert was loud and crazy and exciting I felt really relaxed and at ease. It had a whole calming effect on me. It was so cool. I loved every second of it! I had never been able to see them in concert before just videos on YouTube of there concerts. Those videos are great but it was soooo much better in person.

AHHHHHHH! Jonas Brothers nominated for a Grammy in the Best New Artist category! I am so excited! This is like a HUGE honor. I don't think any one on Disney channel or anyone at Hollywood Records has ever been nominated. This is the same award that The Beatles won!

I knew they were going to announce the nominees during this concert that was going to be on TV but know one told me the boys were going to be there. I was watching Secret Millionaire with my sister(great show by the way) and during commercials we kept changing the channel because we wanted to see the Jonas Brothers performance on Christmas at Rockefeller Center (which we somehow missed).

I'm so proud of the Jonas Brothers and how far they have come. they went from playing for 15 people, maybe, to over 15,000 people! With millions if not billions of awesome fans! I bet the people at Columbia Records must be so mad that they dropped them from the label.

I have herd the rumors that sometimes the artists that wins Best New Artist at the Grammys usually just disappears after they win and people stop caring. I'm 99.9% positive that if they win that they will only become MORE successful and not less. And even if they don't win they are still amazing and its an honor to be nominated with all the other talented artist. But I still really really hope they win!
