One Of The Best Years Of Our Lives [Read]

December 30, 2008 by cpaig

jonas08

The Boys have given us an epic 2008 retrospective blog post!

What a year this has been. There are probably not enough words to describe what an amazing year we have lived in 2008. It feels like we were just sitting here writing a blog for the end of 2007. Time has really moved faster than we could have imagined.

See what all they are thankful for in 2008 and what they are looking forward to in 2009 (conveniently augmented with loads of pics, vids,  and links to our prior coverage) after the jump…

As we end the year we wanted to list some of the things we are thankful for in 2008 (and a few things we are excited about for 2009)

In 2008 we are thankful for:

  • The opportunity to be on the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus tour and the HM 3D movie (which opened at Number 1)2149823306_aec7a681252
  • The When You Look Me in the Eyes Tour which started in February.1199917993_jonasbrotherstourposter1
  • Our first ever Kids Choice Award for Best Group
  • Our first ever Teen Choice Awards. You made it possible for us to get 5 awards.
  • Our first opportunity to tour outside the US. WE opened for Avril Livigne in Europe. It was a great opportunity to meet people from all over Europe. [More]
  • The launch of Camp Rock in the US and around the world.
  • Radio playing our songs – This year they played When You Look Me in the Eyes, Burnin’ Up, and LoveBug. [Ed-And they did many sweet radio interviews!]
    2633526859_06330df2e6
  • Our videos were well received – WYLMITEs, Burnin’ Up and LoveBug and you guys made them successful on TV and especially online.

“When You Look Me In The Eyes”

“Burnin’ Up”

“Lovebug”

  • We did a short reality series for the Disney Channel called Jonas Brothers – Living the Dream. They followed us on our WYLMITEs tour.
  • normal_usmagWe had a wonderful summer tour with The Burning Up Tour. We started in Canada and toured all over the US. It was amazing from beginning to end. Some of the highlights included, 3 Madison Square Gardens, release week for our ALBL CD, playing at Woodstock, Toronto, etc. During the tour we filmed our 3D movie. A lot of you might find yourself in the movie because we filmed it on most of the Burning Up Tour. [More]
  • We visited MuchMusic in Canada following the European premiere of Camp Rock. It was a total surprise to see that many people in Canada that knew about our music. We can’t wait to visit more of Canada on our next tour.
  • We released on new CD, A Little Bit Longer, around the world. It debuted Number 1 on the US Billboard Chart.
  • We released our 2 CDs and Camp Rock around the world.

  • Jonas Brothers and A Little Bit Longer have gone Gold or Platinum in 27 nations outside the US (not inlcuding Camp Rock). All 3 CDs went Platinum in the US.
  • We started filming our new TV show for the Disney Channel called JONAS. We can’t wait for you to see it. We have been working hard on this since September.

  • We won our first American Music Award (AMA) for Breakthrough Artist. It was your votes that allowed us to win.
  • We release our first book of photos from the last couple years that made it to Number 1 on the New York Times Bestsellers List for its category.
  • We won an award for Best English act in Mexico. Then we went back for our first stadium show.

  • At the end of the year we were nominated for a Best New Artist Grammy. We don’t even know what to say about this honor. It is a complete shock and thrill all at the same time.

This has been one of the best years of our lives. None of this would have been possible without you. You have made our dreams come true.

Thank you Disney, Hollywood Records, TV, radio, film, etc. But most of all THANK YOU!!!!

Looking ahead to 2009…

  • In February you can see our new 3D movie

more about “Jonas in 3-D“, posted with vodpod

jobro3djonasbrothers3dconcert

  • Later in the year we will debut our Disney Channel how, JONAS
  • AND…we will launch our first ever JB WORLD TOUR

Thank you, thank you, thank you

You are the best fans in the world. Thanks for allowing us to live our dreams.

JB
Kevin, Joe and Nick

They forgot this!

    They are just so amazing!!!! Sometimes there just aren’t words….


  2. on December 30, 2008 at 2:10 am flamom

    I thought they won six Teen Choice Awards (remember the joke sixteen Choice Awards?) ?


  3. on December 30, 2008 at 2:55 am tlatzotzontli

    Hey everyone, I haven’t commented in a few days, but I have been keeping up with the post. I hope everyone had a nice holiday and a few days of rest.

    Phew, that list is amazing. How they accomplish all of that in one year baffles me. I like the added touch of this post with the pictures and videos. It really helps to show their busy schedule, as well as how much they have matured over the months. Can’t wait to see what other things they have in store in ‘09!


  4. on December 30, 2008 at 8:48 am amandalovesjb

    Once again, Cpaig, you have totally outdone yourself. How do you do it??!! Every single picture was perfect for the quote. Every single picture was an “Awwwwwwwww, I remember that one!” for me. I can’t believe how far they’ve come, and you’re right Tlatz, matured.

    I love how Nick’s hair has shrunk. lol. I loved the curly mop haired 14-15 year old, but the well shaped curly headed 15-16 year old is something else.


  5. on December 30, 2008 at 8:58 am merry27

    wow-this post is stellar!!
    I can’t believe the amazing year they’ve had. I’m so happy to relive it with them here. You can see how much they’ve changed from the first pic of the HM 3d concert to the Grammy announcement picture.
    And no slowing down in ‘09.
    thanks!!


  6. on December 30, 2008 at 9:52 am Monica

    I absolutely love that pic of Kevin holding up the “thank you” sign in the window. It kind of says it all for them. What a life these guys have. I’m jealous! Thanks for this awesome post!


  7. on December 30, 2008 at 10:51 am sharpld

    Epic post to match the epic blog. Thank you!

    I ♥ JB so much. What an amazing year they have had and so well-deserved. I love it when the good guys win.


  8. on December 30, 2008 at 10:52 am cpaig

    I am glad you all enjoy it!

    I can’t take all of the credit, thought, this was most definitely a joint effort between Mememoi and I – We had to cut the list in half just to get it done in a timely manner.

    I wish we could have a joint byline.

    Plus – they left out so much – like Rolling Stone, among other things. It is cool to see the moments they hold dear.


  9. on December 30, 2008 at 10:54 am cpaig

    That Kevin “Thank You” pictures is one of my favorites too. :)


  10. on December 30, 2008 at 11:48 am Mae

    cpaig, I noticed the absence of the Rolling Stone cover as well! I thought for sure that they would have mentioned it. I think that may be my favorite highlight of the year for them.

    Plus them mentioning it would have been a good excuse to post the cover shot ; P Although I do see it hidden in one of those collages.

    And speaking of the collages, I loved those! I think I was mostly still lurking when you were posting them so I don’t believe I ever really commented on them – but I got such a kick out of them.


  11. on December 30, 2008 at 12:08 pm merry27

    I love that picture of Kevin too-it’s sweet and poignant.

    Not mentioning the RS cover was a bit weird but maybe they felt it was a bit mature for their fanbase? I love it too but my daughter sort of keeps it tucked away-I think it’s a bit too hot for her at 13.

    And I agree Mae the collages are really special.


  12. on December 30, 2008 at 1:28 pm amandalovesjb

    I think maybe they thought they were patting themselves on the back in that post so they left a few things out just because? I don’t know.

    And Merry, Kayla has the poster of the RS cover conveniently across from her bed so you can’t really see it right when you walk in her room. :)

    I just read a google alert that said, “Nick gets the giggles”. I was all excited to see a recent Nick laughing but it turned out to be the ‘Sound of Music’ interview when he was about 10 or so. Still cute…


  13. on December 30, 2008 at 2:01 pm merry27

    Amanda you’re lucky-Elizabeth definitely keeps it hidden. But I love it!!

    I thought maybe they left it out because there was a tiny bit of backlash. But I’m guessing you’re right they just had so much.

    Must check out giggling Nick.

    And did you see the NYC police have been given a special warning because of the hoardes of JB fans that will be descending on NY? Sadly not us as Elizabeth is still not feeling up to anything.
    Not that I’d let her hang outside their hotel or anything.


  14. on December 30, 2008 at 2:51 pm flamom

    I’m wondering if someone else put together this list for them, since the # of TC awards is wrong, and some stuff is left off, and there are spelling/grammatical mistakes I can’t attribute to Kevin (Avril Lavigne – come on – they can spell her name).


  15. on December 30, 2008 at 3:08 pm mememoi

    I dunno…I would hope if it was a pro, there would be FEWER mistakes…and Kevin has admitted to being a terrible speller!

    (Oh yeah, you nailed it on the TC awards…they won six of the seven they were nommed for, right?)

    I figured they wanted to do something comprehensive for the fans…and had to bang it out as much as he could off the top of his head without too much double-checking (it’s still the holidays!), if it was Kevin. At heart, he’s still just a young guy after all!

    And whoever does it misspells people’s names all the time (like Jordin Sparks’ name on the last YouTube!). Heheh.
    I wouldn’t hold it against them. Their MySpace blogs are often somewhat typo-riddled. Typos aren’t as bad as terrible spelling….right? :)


  16. on December 30, 2008 at 4:45 pm coolmom

    Have you ladies seen this? Scene from the 3D movie! Way cool to hear them perform live with the screaming edited out!

    http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00020877.html

    Wonderful comprehensive post ladies, natch. I’m perplexed at the errors in the info on the Myspace blog too. Maybe that means they did it themselves, and couldn’t remember everything on the spot?

    I’m finding it hilarious that New York’s finest are frightened of the rabid tweeners! But then, there are few creatures on this earth more scary than a hormone-crazed, sleep-deprived teen-age girl!


  17. on December 30, 2008 at 5:53 pm merry27

    I sort of figured that they wrote it themselves mostly because of the phrasing and spelling! I like that about it. And it makes sense that they couldn’t remember everything.

    And coolmom that performance is one of the ” 3 Madison Square Gardens” they refer to(very cute when they say it that way). You can definitely hear 1 scream-my daughter blowing my ear off when Joe takes off his jacket. ouch!
    I don’t think his voice sounds so great in the end but I think that was the 3rd concert they had played that day. But the energy was totally there.


  18. on December 30, 2008 at 6:19 pm Elisa

    I got chills reading that. They’ve had such an amazing year… And 2009 is probably going to be even better for them. And they SO deserve it.

    Coolmom, thanks for the link! My favourite parts were Joe taking his jacket off (he does it on purpose, showing off those arms… That boy’s such a tease!), Nick playing the drums (mmmm) and Joe filming the crowd (and himself). And Kevin, well, just being himself. He’s always great on stage – he’s having a great time and it shows. I can’t wait to see the whole movie!

    I missed all the conversation on the last two threads so I haven’t been able to comment on this yet… Mememoi and cpaig, you’re going to the Ryman show, too? That is awesome!! Can’t wait to hear _every detail_. From all four of you!

    Can’t believe this year is almost over… But I’m glad it is, because the day after tomorrow I’ll get to put my Jonas calendar on the wall!


  19. on December 30, 2008 at 6:29 pm cpaig

    Hey everyone, look what my big sister sent me as a birthday card today:

    I thought I should share!

    :)

    Thanks for sharing your birthday cards with us!


  21. on December 30, 2008 at 7:46 pm sharpld

    Happy birthday, cpaig! Thanks for sharing those gifts with us.

    Amanda – swooning at that pic!

    Coolmom – thanks for the link! It is fun to listen to them with the screaming fans dropped out. And watching Kevin’s solos in Video Girl, pass the smelling salts, please!


  22. on December 30, 2008 at 7:48 pm Elisa

    Happy Birthday Cpaig!! Here’s my gift: http://photos.nickjonline.com/displayimage.php?album=1253&pos=31 That’s my favourite Kevin photo ever. Love that smile!


  23. on December 30, 2008 at 8:09 pm merry27

    Happy happy Cpaig!!
    A fellow Capricorn! which can be good because everything you don’t get for Christmas you can get for your birthday(and on sale) but can be bad because sometimes no one feels like celebrating. hope you’re having lots of fun.

    Thanks for sharing all the Kevin Kutness! Kevin singing ALOT is precious…


  24. on December 30, 2008 at 9:10 pm mollyanne

    Oh happy birthday Cpaig! I hope it’s a great one!

    p.s.- love the Kev pictures…..he’s so dreamy….

    Happy B’Day cpaig!!! Hope you had a Kevenly day!!

    By the way, awesome post!!!!


  34. on December 31, 2008 at 12:38 am Mae

    And LOL amanda – I just read your comment!


  35. on December 31, 2008 at 12:52 am flamom

    I figured out what I’m wearing on Sunday. OK, so I decided on – black Jonas Brothers tank top, black shrug and jeans (dark blue LOL) and black heeled boots. The tank is a bit unusual for everyday … but perfect for a concert, and anyway, the shrug makes it look great IMO.

    This is the tank in blue – mine is black with yellow logo:

  36. on December 31, 2008 at 12:56 am flamom

    Ok, so I packed all day and have two suitcases (one gigantic) FULL of wintery type things for the 4 of us.

    I still haven’t done multiple personal things, like my nails. And I haven’t packed anything other than shoes and clothing. And we all know esp. with kids, there is a lot more to packing than shoes and clothing.

    Plus my eBay store keeps rolling and I have to ship and make a final trip to the PO tomorrow.

    And I’m seeing the doctor because I have laryngitis and just want to check that I’m viral and not bacterial (in which case I want antibiotics).

    I’m still working on laundry and general cleaning up before we go …

    Oh boy tomorrow is going to be rough. I’m sure you can all tell I’m kind of anxious by nature so preparing to go away is always stressful for me, even though I really don’t think it should be!!

    At least I know I get to see the guys tomorrow night this time.


  37. on December 31, 2008 at 12:58 am flamom

    I went out tonight to get some L/S tees for myself – yes, I had NONE – and I also bought 2 scarves – purple with silver threads, and black with silver threads. I love them! I channel a little bit of Joe … they are the thinner cotton type scarves he wears sometimes … and feel a little more “rockstar” myself. :) )


  38. on December 31, 2008 at 1:04 am amandaheartsjb

    Oh Flamom…I am so living vicariously through you!!!


  39. on December 31, 2008 at 1:12 am flamom

    I’m so dramatic today!!!

    THanks Amanda!

    So … I guess I am going to bring my camera into the auditorium in a makeup bag as someone suggested elsewhere. I don’t think the JB prohibit cameras. I’m not bringing any videocamera of course, and I don’t usually take video with my iPhone but I think I can – I also can with my camera – so maybe I’ll ask DH to take a little video just for the heck of it. It’s not like I’d post it on YouTube or anything, but I could put it on Photobucket and share it with all of you.

    Oh I just can’t wait to get on the road. Did I mention I have bills to pay tomorrow? You’d think I’d been doing nothing this whole week and a half!

    I did get my hair colored and cut today too (so did DH but not for the Jonas Brothers LOL). It had only been 4 weeks and the gray was so bad – I think my hair is way more gray than brown at this point. I guess I’ll never know though.

    My friend who cuts my hair has a 5 yr old DD who is really into Camp Rock right now. And we were looking at the USA Today with the JB on it, and my friend agrees that Joe is totally beautiful. :) We discussed all 3 brothers for a while. She had been studying Nick’s hair in the Bayer ad since she cuts Ethan (my son)’s hair like Nick’s. It’s a really complicated cut he has, but he also is totally blessed with such beautiful loose curls. I told her he hadn’t always had curly hair so she said that was why. My son’s are a little tighter than Nick’s but not as tight as Denise’s and Kevin’s. It’s long in the front and shorter elsewhere like Nick is doing his right now. Funny that a 5 yr old and 16 yr old both look great in the same haircut …


  40. on December 31, 2008 at 1:12 am mememoi

    ACK! So exciting!!!! (And so organized. I wish.)

    I have that same tank top, flamom, it is so cute! I guess that’s one thing I won’t be wearing this time…hmmm…lol. (I love wearing it to other bands’ concerts. :) )


  41. on December 31, 2008 at 2:18 am flamom

    You mean you want to wear something unique? :)


  42. on December 31, 2008 at 2:34 am Trish

    I’M BACK!!! Missed you guys during the holidays…had so much family in and out, been sick, work has been hell with the transition between Christmas product to all Valentines (*roll eyes* wish I was kidding…)
    Needless to say I’ve been in dire need of a JB fix and I think I got it between those wonderful Kevin pics and Joe’s amazing arms in that video!

    Yay, Flamom! I’ve been thinking about you and know how excited you are! Remember, wave at the Morrow, GA exit! :)

    Merry, that is too funny about your daughter and the RS cover! In a couple of years you’ll be wishing you could revert her back to those ways. My daughter is 15 and also has the poster in her bedroom right over her bed where she can drool over it 24/7! LOL!

    Can’t wait to check out the posts I’ve missed!

    Happy Birthday, cpaig!!!


  43. on December 31, 2008 at 3:29 am flamom

    Is Forsythe GA near you Trish? We are staying there on the way to Nashville.

    The RS cover – is everyone happy with Nick and Kevin on it? I mean, Joe is over the top but Kevin and Nick are pretty normal. I wish they were a little more “sultry.” Or am I missing something?

    Also – the ALBL cover, does everyone like Nick on it? He is hunched over and yeah, it’s kind of cute but I kinda want something different. Other than that I think the cover is SO spectacular.


  44. on December 31, 2008 at 4:28 am tlatzotzontli

    It’s a little late, but happy birthday cpaig! I hope you had a wonderful day.

    And even if it was for cpaig’s b-day, I thank everyone for posting those Kevin pics too. Those were a treat that everyone could enjoy. ;) I especially like this one that coolmom posted:
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicholasjjonasfanatic/3081123329/

    flamom: Your outfit sounds really cute! Good luck packing and safe travels!


  45. on December 31, 2008 at 9:22 am merry27

    Trish welcome back. Valentines Day?! Noooooooo!! I know you are right about my daughter. I do enjoy watching her sort of figure it all out and how much hotness she can handle.

    Flamom your outfit sounds perfect!! It’s getting so exciting.
    good luck today-I’m feeling your adrenaline rush.

    For tonight:
    I got a kick out of the event schedule….

    http://www.timessquarenyc.org/nye/nye_events.html – 25k


  46. on December 31, 2008 at 10:19 am amandalovesjb

    I’m still going through all those millions of google alerts I have sitting in my inbox. Found some YouTubes I didn’t know anything about…did ya’ll? Maybe someone posted them on here and I missed it. Anyway, I’m not even sure what concert it was, a private one or something? It was apparently a week before the Las Vegas concerts. This short clip is Joe asking the audience what the band’s names are. No one said Ryan’s name so Nick whispered it in the mic, then Joe joked that he was Axl Rose.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NzN2CPhZ-0&feature=related

    There are other vids, too, from the same concert, one where Nick starts playing SOS acoustically, and Joe jokes that it’s a country song, he starts singing “I told you I made dinner plans, for you and me an no one else” all twangy and country. It’s hilarious!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icfgYaaD6kA

    I’m going to go back and watch all of these. Some are fairly short. Maybe cameras weren’t allowed?

    I apologize if everyone has already seen these.


  47. on December 31, 2008 at 10:33 am amandalovesjb

    And Merry, thanks for posting the New Year event schedule! I wonder what ‘a medley’ of JB’s songs will include?! I’m dying to know. My mother-in-law called to invite us to their house tonight but my hubby told her, “They’re going to be watching some Jonas Brothers stuff so they can’t come…” I was surprised he even knew! There’s no way I would miss this even if I am TiVo-ing it! :)


  48. on December 31, 2008 at 11:51 am coolmom

    flamom – Love hearing about the travel preparation, it adds lots of fun detail to my vicarious living, lol!

    Good speed and safe travels to all travellers!!!


  49. on December 31, 2008 at 11:53 am coolmom

    Anybody think that JB’s “medley” will be the same as during the Dallas Halftime show?

    I’d vote for “Shelf” “BB Good” and “Video Girl” myself, but they’ll probably go more mainstream for the TV crowd.


  50. on December 31, 2008 at 12:16 pm Tiffany

    I’ve been going back and forth debating whether or not I would venture to Times Square tonight, and after the ‘mob scene’ worries, and this recent 6 inches of snow, its looking like I won’t be making it :(
    Thank goodness for cable TV.

    Thanks for the clips amanda! I hadn’t seen any of those, and I must say, the country version of S.O.S. was definitely a classic Jonas moment. I love it!

    Happy New Year everyone!


  51. on December 31, 2008 at 12:39 pm mollyanne

    Exactly coolmom…I love hearing about everybody packing to go to the show! Thank goodness we have you to live vicariously through! Can’t wait to get home and watch these vids!

    Ps- my office is soooo quiet so I listen to that pandora Internet radio and I made a JB station where they play JB and other artists like them and i was THRILLED when it started playing songs from Its About Time!!!!!!!! Woooo made my day. In fact, I’m listening to Time for Me to Fly right now!!!! Thought I’d share my excitedness!

    Have any of you ever heard of these?: http://www.ryman.com/HatchGallery.html

    These posters are actual prints that are usually hand numbered and sold at many shows throughout Nashville (and elsewhere). A print is typically made for most shows at the Ryman and I am crossing my fingers that one is made for the JB show.

    They are incredibly cool and quite the memento.


  53. on December 31, 2008 at 12:46 pm mollyanne

    Oh man mae those are amazing!!! How awesome would those be….what a memento is right.


  54. on December 31, 2008 at 1:25 pm flamom

    and HA! Taylor Swift gets 6 minutes for her medley of “hit” songs and the JB get 7! LOL!


  55. on December 31, 2008 at 1:26 pm flamom

    I would LOVE that poster Mae! Where would they be sold? at the show?


  56. on December 31, 2008 at 2:10 pm jc

    Everyone who is going to the show at the Ryman I wish you safe travels and a wonderful time!

    Happy New Year to all!


  57. on December 31, 2008 at 2:27 pm Mae

    flamom, yes, if they even have them, they will be sold at the show at the merch booth. They tend to make a limited number so I would be sure to buy it right when you get there.

    p.s. theyaretoohits!!!!!!!!!!!! :)


  58. on December 31, 2008 at 2:37 pm Elisa

    Lol, Flamom! JB getting more screentime than TS… That one minute means everything to us. :)

    I wish I could watch the show live but I’m going to have to wait till the videos hit the Internet… Can’t wait to see what songs they decide to include in the performance. I would love to hear “Can’t Have You’. Every time I hear that song, I just fall more and more in love with it. I know there’s not much of a chance of them actually playing it, but I’m crossing my fingers anyway! It’s a good thing I adore all their songs, so it doesn’t really matter what they play. :P

    Amanda, thanks for the links! The country version of SOS was HILARIOUS.

    Happy New Year everyone! And have a safe trip, Flamom!!


  59. on December 31, 2008 at 3:02 pm merry27

    This is kind of cool if you want to be in Times Square:

    http://newyears.earthcam.com/ts/

    And woa-Mae those posters are awesome!! I still can’t believe that they are playing there where all those other artists played.

    Amanda that version of sos is too funny. Joe-drop the accent before you get to the Ryman!

    Happy New Year Elisa-you’ll be the first SR-er to celebrate!


  60. on December 31, 2008 at 3:33 pm flamom

    Oh sorry Mae! :) Forgot you liked Taylor!


  61. on December 31, 2008 at 5:10 pm Mae

    Heh flamom!

    So I just checked the hourly forecast for NYC tonight. It is going to be freezing when JB performs. It is suppose to be Partly Cloudy, Windy (22 mph) and 21 degrees (feels like 5 degrees!). How horribly unpleasant.

    Brrrrrr!


  62. on December 31, 2008 at 5:32 pm flamom

    well it’s 39 in Nashville right now, and this FL resident (last 17 yrs – previously from NJ) is like – BRRRRRRRRR!

    Please Joe – no hat tonight! I want to see your shiny shiny sexy hair!!


  63. on December 31, 2008 at 5:38 pm merry27

    I hope they have their Hot Pockets to keep them warm!!


  64. on December 31, 2008 at 6:00 pm merry27

    oooh and the boys met their fans outside their hotel and Joe still has the facial hair-intriguing….


  65. on December 31, 2008 at 6:34 pm jc

    Any pics of this merry?


  66. on December 31, 2008 at 6:36 pm merry27

    not yet jc, my daughter just saw it on team jonas. The girl who was there is promising to post pictures later.


  67. on December 31, 2008 at 7:20 pm Trish

    Joe sporting some facial hair?! Gotta see this!!

    I would kill for one of those Ryman posters!!!!!!!!!


  68. on December 31, 2008 at 7:54 pm mememoi

    Now I am on pins and needles to see whether Joe will shave just before the show or if facial hair is this year’s top hat!!!! Heeeheee!


  69. on December 31, 2008 at 8:08 pm merry27

    well it’s only a few more hours…..

    I’m betting he’s going with the facial hair. If he’s willing to wear it in front of all the girls who waited outside their hotel then he must really like it.

    the new top hat-so funny mememoi!!


  70. on December 31, 2008 at 8:29 pm tlatzotzontli

    Amanda, those videos are great! I wonder what show that was. I know I’ve seen those outfits somewhere else…does anybody remember? Some interview or other appearance?

    And, also thanks Merry for that link to the live webcams of Times Square. It’s loading kind of slow for me, but I wonder if they will show performances on there. I’m on the West Coast and feel anxious about waiting three hours after the actual performance.


  71. on December 31, 2008 at 8:34 pm tlatzotzontli

    I just saw a clip on Disney Channel where some of the stars talk about their favorite moments of the new year….Nick said that it was his birthday because he got Elvis. It made me chuckle because instead of mentioning something from the looong list on their blog, he considers getting Elvis as the highlight of his year. Cute!


  72. on December 31, 2008 at 8:54 pm flamom

    I’m so nervous about Joe’s beard! I hope I like it! Oh wow. It did not look so great at the movies but it probably takes a long time to come in – he’s only 19 …

    My friend wanted me to bring a sign to the JoBros on Sunday – like “Came from FL to see JB” or something, but my DH nixed that idea – no sign he says (firmly)! Any one have thoughts on this – should I insist? Is it stupid? I really don’t want to bother but am thinking I “should” since I’m so close to the front …

    ????


  73. on December 31, 2008 at 9:00 pm merry27

    well there’s a vid on TMZ of them arriving at their hotel and I hate TMZ so I just watched without the sound and I was like-uh what facial hair?? It’s very faint.

    Flamom I have seen hundreds of amazing posters confiscated at every venue we’ve seen them at! Unless you can sneak it in and make it small (which would be kind of sweet) it’s not worth it.

    Tlatz I saw that-so cute! Plus 10 seconds of a Jonas preview. Again, adorable. I know I’ll be watching every minute (even if the premise looks lame)


  74. on December 31, 2008 at 9:10 pm sharpld

    The Jonas previews are adorable. Just saw Kevin in plaid flannel pj’s, complete with long pointy night cap. Over the top cute. So I guess I will be tuned in to Disney until about 11:30. Then time to watch the Boys.


  75. on December 31, 2008 at 9:11 pm mememoi

    I am sort of excited about the beard (well, “beard” is probably being too generous, it’s scruff!), just because it would seem rebellious in a cute, harmless way. But it must be sanctioned by management because after the fan shots at the movies, I thought for sure the phone was going to ring in Dallas insisting he shave at once. LOL.

    My first thought when I saw him all scruffy was that he is trying not to be so cute and pretty. Reminded me of a specific boy I knew in college who used to go to great pains to de-cutify himself at this same age. But it didn’t really work (the guy looked just like Rob Lowe), we all knew he was adorable. Sorry, Joe!!!

    If it is approved from above I think it is an interesting idea…last year people noticed their outfits, it was a statement. This year, if Joe comes out fuzzy, the media will totally buzz about it, one way or another.


  76. on December 31, 2008 at 9:12 pm mememoi

    No facial hair then? Much ado about nothing then! Darn. ;)


  77. on December 31, 2008 at 9:13 pm mememoi

    Re: signs, flamom:

    If it’s relatively small, like no bigger than a normal 8.5 x 11, sure…especially considering the modesty of the venue, I would think a big sign would be totally gauche.

    (And yeah, confiscated!)


  78. on December 31, 2008 at 9:19 pm merry27

    no it’s there-I just thought it was kind of faint. It’s hard to tell. I’m not sure what all the fuss is about. So we’ll see.
    But I have the same coat!

    Your theory is good mememoi. Maybe it’s kind of a mini rebellion too?

    That Jonas preview with Kevin in the pjs-oh boy. It will be impossible not to watch!!


  79. on December 31, 2008 at 9:30 pm Trish

    We just saw Kevin in his PJ’s too! How cute is that?!

    BTW Flamom – Forsyth is maybe an hour south of me. I am just south of the airport, about 15 minutes before you hit the Atlanta city limits.


  80. on December 31, 2008 at 9:39 pm merry27

    oh sorry mememoi-the min rebellion WAS your theory. I just saw Rob Lowe and my eyes drifted downward….


  81. on December 31, 2008 at 10:16 pm tlatzotzontli

    To add to the videos that Amanda linked…I found another user who also added great videos from that concert.

    http://www.youtube.com/user/VoteJohnjayAndRich

    I guess it was a special concert for 30 radio contest winners from around the U.S. It was the day before the AMA’s and one person at the show was selected to attend the AMA’s with JB.

    There’s a cute video of them singing “Please Be Mine” to two girls on stage. Also, when they first came out Joe said, “I’m sorry the Jonas Brothers couldn’t be here. We’re Maroon 5, and we’re going to play some songs covering the Jonas Brothers.” Too funny.


  82. on December 31, 2008 at 10:31 pm mememoi

    Wow – I totally missed anything on that private concert – how completely cool!


  83. on December 31, 2008 at 10:36 pm amandalovesjb

    That Joe! Such a kidder. So far here in Idaho we’ve seen just a couple seconds preview of JONAS, but it was adorable. All these girls started chasing our boys and Nick made the cutest face ever. :) Haven’t seen Kev’s pjs yet.

    We are glued to Disney Channel until 11:30 also, Sharpld.


  84. on December 31, 2008 at 10:38 pm amandalovesjb

    Here’s sort of a fuzzy pic on Just Jared Jr of Joe’s facial hair taken on Monday this week…

    http://justjaredjr.buzznet.com/2008/12/30/joe-jonas-grows-beard/


  85. on December 31, 2008 at 10:40 pm sharpld

    Some of the JONAS previews are already hitting YouTube, but the quality isn’t great. If I find some good onwes, I will link.


  86. on December 31, 2008 at 10:41 pm amandalovesjb

    Here’s another pic taken Monday at that Texas restaurant, apparently Selena was there too! Nick is in the background…

  87. on December 31, 2008 at 10:44 pm sharpld

    Nick is looking very handsome doing the video intros on Disney. Oh, boys! A Jonas-filled New Year’s Eve. ♥♥&hears;


  88. on December 31, 2008 at 11:19 pm merry27

    just switched to Dick Clark and got a sweet Jonas Disney promo….. they’re everywhere!!

    wow tlatz the private concert looks cool. thx, it will be something for me to watch next year (first lame new year’s joke-sorry)

    Amanda let us know when you see Kevin in his pjs…


  89. on December 31, 2008 at 11:56 pm mollyanne

    Oh snap I LOVE Joe’s hair! And Kev’s facial expressions! And Nick looks so happy!


  90. on December 31, 2008 at 11:58 pm merry27

    Yeah, they look so cute when they’re cold. Can’t wait for the performance!!


  91. on January 1, 2009 at 12:09 am mollyanne

    I totally snuck away from the crowd at the right time huh? They look adorable shivering. Awww….thank goodness I have my phone to SQUEEEE with all of you!


  92. on January 1, 2009 at 12:14 am coolmom

    Hey ladies, there’s a new thread for us to squeeee about the performance!!


  93. on January 1, 2009 at 12:18 am merry27
