The Livechat is coming, the Livechat is coming!! I think it would be imprudent NOT to recommend that you stock up on essentials immediately- milk, bread, candles, what have you – before the moment is upon us, because it is sure to be a serious one.

Ah, a new blog post from the Jonases. This one had an awful lot of ground to cover!!!
Everything from the AMAs to the HOB show, Cowboys’ halftime to NYC, Vegas to the Palladium. In two weeks. It astounds me that the fact that they are meanwhile filming their TV series is sort of an aside. [...]
