Book Will Give Fans a Backstage Glimpse at the Pop Phenomenon Band
New York – May 27, 2008—Disney Book Group will publish an exclusive behind-the-scenes book from the chart-topping Jonas Brothers—one of the hottest bands in the world today—on tour. The Platinum-certified recording artists and stars of the upcoming “Camp Rock” Disney Channel Original Movie will share never-before-seen photos along with exclusive commentary.

The book will be published in fall 2008 and will give fans a backstage glimpse at the Jonas Brothers—20 year old Kevin, 18 year old Joe, and 15 year old Nick. Disney Book Group has acquired world rights for the title.
“We have such an amazing time performing at our concerts, and to be able to chronicle all of the fun for our fans and readers is just incredible for us,” say brothers Kevin, Joe and Nick. “We hope our fans get to relive our shows and discover things they haven’t seen before through our book.”
“The Jonas Brothers are such a huge multi-media phenomenon.” says Mosure. “We are thrilled to have this opportunity to share their tour with their fans and to help kids connect with the Jonas brothers in this exclusive way.”
The book deal was negotiated by Jonathan Yaged, vice president, North America publisher, Disney Book Group and will be published under the Disney-Hyperion Books imprint. The Jonas Brothers are exclusively managed by Philip McIntyre/Philymack Inc.; Kevin Jonas/Simple Days Management; and John Wright/Wright Entertainment Group. Yaged added: “We are extremely excited to give fans this unique opportunity to see what really happens backstage with one of the world’s biggest bands.
?The Jonas Brothers signed with Hollywood Records and released their self-titled sophomore record in August of the same year. Within a week it reached number five on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. From October 2007 through January 2008, they launched a solo headline tour in spring of 2008, breaking the record for fastest sellout in the history of the Gibson amphitheater.

Hey everybody!
How are you?
So today we woke up real early to get on a flight to London.
We had some amazing Cereal in the Airport as we waited on our flight!
When we landed we went to the Paul O'Grady Show.
We had so much fun. Tons of fans came and showed there support! We love you guys! we played S.O.S., had an interview with Paul and ate some traditional U.K. food. He's really funny!
We were not scared to try any foods they offered us. We also danced with a very famous dancing group.
Afterwards we went to our favorite restaurant here in London. they serve Steak and French Fries. Two of our favorite things.
off to Manchester tomorrow!
Much Love.
Joe, Nick, Kevin.

DJ Danger needs to come back, even if it's the more mature 18 year old super cool version.

Update!
Category: Blogging
Hey everyone!
Today was our third show on our European tour with Avril! The day started in London and when we woke up we got to see our brand new bus for the first time. Getting up this morning wasn't to hard. When we walked on the bus we were already excited because our bus is a cool blue color! When we walked on the bus we were on the first floor of the bus. I know what your thinking "first floor"? We know its crazy?! The buses here are double deckers (even the touring kind). The downstairs has an awesome lounge and full kitchen and of course...the driver! Then we walked upstairs and that's where all the bunks are. The bunks are great and very comfortable. The only thing is that all of the plugs for your cell phone and computers are all different. You need all different sorts of electric converters. The bus also has an awesome lounge upstairs where there is a game system and a TV and lots and lots of DVD's. But for all of us the coolest part is that there is a sitting area right above the driver with massage chairs and a giant glass window to look out while we drive! So cool.
We drove to Manchester! When we got there we did a bunch of stuff for radio today and it was very cool getting to be in a brand new city and know that they have been playing our song SOS. Then we headed to the venue where we had sound check and did some French TV liners. We have to say we got pretty good at our French accents but we need lots more practice.
The show was amazing and from the very start of it people were jumping up and down and going crazy. It was so cool to see people singing the words to songs that have never been released here in the UK. It was amazing. When we left there were tons of people outside by the gate and we made sure we said hello and took lots of pictures. Tomorrow's going to be a great day as well. We can't wait to play our first show in Burmingham!
Much love,
Joe, Nick, Kevin
Jonas Brothers

Too cute! And I think the boys listened to us, because their last blog had much longer sentences and wasn't so choppy and jumpy. |

Saturday Night in the UK
Category: Music
Hey everyone!
Sorry we missed yesterday's blog. There was no internet service where we were and so we had to wait until today. Thanks for checking.
Yesterday we started the day by visiting a radio station in Birmingham, England. There were fans outside waiting when we arrived at the station. We had a great interview and then they dialed us in to another station for another interview.
Our show yesterday in Birmingham was amazing! The crowd was with us from the beginning. They made us feel so welcome. Avril came out during our set and listened to our show. We met her after the set and she was so nice. We went out and listened to her show tonight. It is amazing how many hits she has recorded.
After the show we drove back to London. Remember the doubledecker bus...well it got stuck and could not fit into the street where we were staying. We had to get out and get another car to drive us to the hotel.
Today we started the day in London. We recorded a really cool show called Green Room. The put you in a Green Room with other bands and artists. After a while each group goes out and performs in front of a studio audience. The other bands/artists were cool. They put all kinds of weird things in the Green Room. They should not let Joe near some of those things, i.e. Hulk hands, Mexican wrestling masks, etc.
After the Green Room we went outside and there were tons of fans waiting for us in the street. It is so fun to see people in another country that seem to like our music. We still can't believe it!
Then we drove to Cardiff, Wales. The show was amazing again. Each show is getting more and more exciting.
After the show we drove to the next town and we will have another show tomorrow.
Thanks for checking in each day.
You are the best
JB
Kevin, Joe and Nick

Sunday Night
Category: Music
Hey everyone!
Today was an amazing day. We were able to sleep in this morning. It was good to catch up on our sleep. We have been running since we arrived in Europe.
We left our hotel today at 2 pm and went to see Indiana Jones. We are in Plymouth, England (the place where the Mayflower sailed to the US). The movie rocked. Shia LaBeouf was amazing. He is an incredible actor. On the way to the movie theater we heard SOS on the radio in England. And tonight the video was on TV. That was fantastic.
The show tonight was great. The audience was dancing and singing along. Every day feels like more and more people are aware of the music.
We had a four hour drive back to London tonight. Pretty tired. Tomorrow we have a lot of press and TV.
Thanks for checking in on us every day
JB
Kevin, Joe and Nick

Monday, June 02, 2008 Monday in the UK Category: Music Hey everyone! Today was a fun filled day in London, England. We started early in the morning. Today we did 2 TV appearances. One was for the BBC and the other for a show called LOOSE WOMEN. For the BBC we performed SOS in an old theater. It was amazing. It seems everyone has played there through the years. We actually played in the front lobby. It was a cool setting as people walked by and looked inside as we were singing. The second TV appearance was back at the same studios as the Paul O'Grady show. The LOOSE WOMEN were so nice. We sang SOS again. We ended the night by eating at one of our favorite sushi restaurants, NOBU. It was incredible. Do you guys like sushi? London is a wonderful place. There is so much to see and experience. Oh by the way, please check out our new YouTube video on our YouTube Channel... www.youtube.com/jonasbrothersmusicLet us know what you think?!?! Keep checking in, JB Kevin, Joe and Nick |
