Jonas Brothers Fever Takes Over Toronto….And Rogers Centre

Over 55,000 enthusiastic fans crowded Rogers
Centre
for their chance to hear Jonas Brothers live
With innovative stage set-up, siblings emerge
from underground to greet fans

Screams from the multitudes of teenage female fans proceeded the entrance of THE JONAS BROTHERS long before they appeared. Within seconds of stepping on the circular stage, NICK, JOE and KEVIN launched into a high-energy set. It was clear these music sensations weren’t wasting any time and were itching to perform.

That was all right for fans who have been waiting for this massive world tour for months. The latest album, LINES, VINES AND TRYING TIMES hot off the press, this show was an opportunity for the brothers to show off their new material live and they did not disappoint.

The music was just one facet of an evening that had the boys on a unique 360° stage that allowed fans to watch their idols from every angle and completely unobstructed. This thrilled fans throughout the night, especially when NICK, JOE and KEVIN came down the ramps and were up close and personal to many fans in the front section.

“This is the biggest crowd we have performed for on this tour,” yelled out Nick. “We are so happy to be back in Toronto.”

NICK slowed the tempo down as he took to a white grand piano and performed for the fans. As they sang along to the chorus, NICK shared with the audience his experience with Type 1 diabetes and for fans to keep on believing in themselves.

Moving back into a lighthearted and saxophone-filled set, NICK, JOE and KEVIN showed off their somersaulting skills as they bounced around on trampolines customized to be part of the set. Fans responded by waving thousands of colourful glow sticks and shouting their approval as the brothers launched into their wildly popular “Year 3000.”

Knowing that numerous parents were in the audience, the boys issued them a challenge to show their kids how to rock out and ripped through a cover of NEIL DIAMOND’s “Sweet Caroline.” Young teenage fans may have had a problem placing the song and artist but not the parents who got into dancing along with the famous track.

After a night of energy, acrobatics and catchy songs, THE JONAS BROTHERS ran around the massive stage one last time. Slapping hands and saying thank you to the over 55,000 fans who brought their enthusiasm and energy in full force, the brothers gave Toronto their full superstar power in one action-packed show.

Rounding out the evening were performances by opening acts HONOR SOCIETY, WONDER GIRLS and JORDIN SPARKS who added an extra element of energy to the crowd.
