One of the First Reviews from Jonas Brothers Show in Toronto

Here it is! One of the first reviews from www.thestar.com from tonight's Jonas Brothers concert in Toronto. Sounds like another amazing show:


Jonas Brothers deliver summer treat for screaming fans
August 31, 2009

Pop & Jazz Critic

Every audience wants to believe it's unique and the Jonas Brothers, like most touring acts, did their darnedest to make last night's Rogers Centre crowd feel special.

They delivered the typical "we love coming here" shtick and lauded the "familiar and new faces" greeting them since they were in town for the MuchMusic Video Awards in June. But there was an authentic air of novelty when Kevin Jonas declared "this is the biggest crowd we have performed for on this tour," which concludes in Ottawa today.

It's true: Toronto loves them some Jo Bros at least 56,000 strong. And for the naysayers been chattering about the group's decline in popularity - their concert film only grossed a third of Miley Cyrus's, and the new TV show got off to slow start - that's the second-most concert tickets sold here this year. It's just behind U2 (estimated 58,000-60,000 for each of their two Sept. dates) and ahead of Coldplay (45,000).

Of course many of those seats belonged to chaperones of the 7-to-12-year-old girls who comprised the bulk of attendees.

However, the New Jersey trio of Nick, 16; Joe, 20 and Kevin, 21, dressed in shades of black and grey, put on a show with much more musical depth and maturity that fan base would augur.

There were a few neat party tricks - massive rotating in-the-round stage with a trampoline in the middle and runaways out into floor seats, a white piano that rose out of the floor, a smaller hydraulics-pumped stage - but no fancy choreography, multiple costume changes or fireworks.

Heralded by a tape of Queen's "We Will Rock You," the fellas rose up through the middle of the stage and launched the tasteful, music-focused 100-minute set with "Paranoid" from current disc Lines, Vines & Trying Times, followed by "That's the Way We Roll" and "Poison Ivy."

Not that you could actually hear the band, given the feverish fans who were either screaming or singing as loud as they could.

Those rock-star parents who shelled out $15.50-$95.50 for an end-of-summer treat should also have been entertained by the purity ring-wearing sibs.

For one thing, the ensemble's live sound is more rock 'n' roll than kiddie pop, plumped by a driving 10-piece band, including four horns and two violinists. Then, playing solo piano on "Black Keys," Kevin spun a moving tale about being diagnosed as diabetic four years ago and asking the doctor "Am I going to die?" The upshot of this was not to be defeated by challenges, which may come in handy as a teaching tool. And how about that cover of Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline?"

Unexpected treats included the appearance by singer Demi Lovato for "This Is Me," and a bouncing version of the Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling." Nick, the crowd favourite, also played drums and guitar. Kevin concentrated on guitar and did most of the speaking, while somersaulting, microphone-jumping Joe was the most exuberant.

The Jonas Brothers are hard workers, churning out four albums in the past four years, with a massive, young following that's theirs to squander.

Miley Cyrus Talks About Her BFF's on Her New DVD


Are Miley and Demi really friends? Apparently so! Miley talks about friendship and more in her exclusive interview on the new Hannah Montana The Movie DVD. Here's what the star had to say:

Hi Miley! What makes a good friend?
Friendship is all about trust. If you can trust someone completely, then that is a good friend. That’s someone you should cherish.

And what makes a best friend?
A best friend is when the friendship goes to the next level – it’s like when you feel more like family with someone rather than just friends. Emily Osment and me have that kind of relationship.

Do you consider Emily part of your family?
We’re like sisters and she is my best friend. We will fight like sisters and we drive each other absolutely crazy half the time, but that’s the beauty of it all. She’s one of the few people I feel completely comfortable with and that’s important for a friendship. That means a lot to me because my family means a lot to me.

You mention in your biography that your relationship with Emily was a little shaky when you first started on Hannah Montana… Can you tell us a bit about it?
Well, it’s all written in the book, but it’s true. We didn’t see eye to eye on a few things when I started work on the show.

How did you get over it?
We just grew together as we continued to work together. Like I said earlier, I think we’re more like sisters than friends now. Now, we can be completely honest with each other. We can fight and we can be silly – but we will always love each other.

Can you be moody with each other too?
Definitely! We can argue and be moody with each other, but we know everything will be OK. We’ll get over it because we love each other.

Have you ever been let down badly by a friend?
Oh, sure. Things like that happen to everyone, but I’ve learned to be mature about it and just let it go.

Do you make a big deal out of it if someone lets you down badly?
No. I feel like it’s immature to do that. What’s the point? If the person isn’t meant to be a friend, then just let it go. You’ll know inside if there’s a friendship there to save, but sometimes there isn’t. If you’re really over it – and they’ve hurt you really badly – then there’s no reason to care anymore. Be mature about the situation and let it go.

Do you find it easy to tell if a friend is being genuine or not?
I think it’s harder to find people that are real in Hollywood. There’s this amazing quote by Andy Warhol where he talks about the way that everything is fake and plastic in Hollywood. I think it’s an awesome quote – and it’s pretty true.

Is Hollywood a fake place to live then?
When you think about it, this city can be very plastic. You don’t know what’s real or fake because almost everyone has a motive to be here. Almost everyone wants something.

Do you have many people you can trust in Hollywood?
It’s hard, but it’s getting better because I’m meeting more people I can trust all the time. The good thing is that I have people around me – like Emily – who I know I can depend upon and love unconditionally.

So what makes you smile when you’re feeling down?
A lot of things bring a smile to my face. Music, movies, friends, family… Everything. I’m very lucky. I wouldn’t change a thing for the world.

Here's what Miley had to say about her friends:
EMILY OSMENT
I’m very close to Emily. She’s really fun and she’s beautiful both inside and out. Emily is a really sweet, sweet person and she takes care of me big time. I take care of her too. We’re like sisters. We get along like sisters – and we fight like sisters!

VANESSA HUDGENS
Vanessa is great. I think she’s really cool and I’m so excited that she got to work on her first movie away from High School Musical at last. It’s going to be really cool for her. I can’t wait to see how she does this year.

MANDY JIROUX
Mandy is my best friend. She is actually my dancer, so she goes on tour with me – and she’s great. When I toured the States last year, it was really cool to have her with me 24/7. I’d go and stay on her bus every once in a while to escape.

DEMI LOVATO
I’m very close to Demi Lovato. We’re always Twittering each other, but we don’t get to hang out too often because we’re always working. Whenever I have free time, I love to spend it with Demi. We’ve grown really close.
