JONAS CONCERT MEGAPOST

Heyy I'm back! Sorry guys. Entrance Exams, School Stuff, Erhem . . .JONAS CONCERT!





Well, as some of you may have known, Jonas came to CT October 9 and 10. I was lucky enough to get a hold of 2 pairs of Jonas tickets for 10/10, for me and my cousin. (Section 115, Seats 4 and 5). Hmmm. I can STILL clearly remember it. . . .





The day started when I was waiting to leave, watching the JB 3D Concert Experience on HBO. The movie finished, and the clock struck 3:30 PM, 4 hours before the show started. My cousin & I hopped into the car and took a 1 hour drive to Uncasville, CT (Mohegan Sun Casino). Ha. I could remember that we pulled the windows all the way down and blasted the music singing, with me holding my poster out and screaming, "JONAS, JONAS, JONAS!" to the people on the highway. . . . soooo. It was about 4:00, and we parked in an upper level parking area, near the entrance, and sang the whole time walking. About 4:15, we walked into the casino, and hoards of Jonas fans surrounded the whole entire area, walking out with JB shirts, hats, bags, you name it. As I did the previous night, I looked on the Wonder Girls' twitter (@followwg) and it said that they were doing a public MEET and GREET at Spin City from 4:30 to 5:00. Soooo, as I did, we stayed in the M&G line for about 1 1/2 hours. As anybody would know by now, the song 'Nobody' played in the atmosphere for almost the whole time we were there. So, the whole time waiting, I stood in line dancing the Nobody dance. Soon enough, I attracted enough attention, and one of the Jonas/Wonder Girls staff with a professional camera started filming fans who were dancing. (hehehe, yes I was one of them). About 5:15, it was my turn to meet the Wonder Girls, and yes, I was STILL dancing Nobody. Soooo. I ended up dancing the dance with THEM. (SUCCESS!) The guy, the Asian guy I should say, took my camera and snapped about 3 pics with them. (OMG. Teenie moment. THAT ASIAN GUY KNEW JONAS.)









Sooo. After that, it was about 5:30 and we started to head for the crowd surrounding the Arena entrance. About 30 minutes into the wait, screaming and chaos started, and soon enough, the staff was forced to let us in, because of the complaint of the old people in the casino. Walk in, buy water, staff shows us our seats. Section 115 wasn't the best, but I didn't really care; WE WERE BREATHING THE SAME AIR AS THEM. 6:30 PM, We see JYP and the other Asian lady walk into the arena, and the fans from the Backstage M&G came back. Me and my cousin spotted Uncle Josh (Miller), I think Angela, BRAD!, Guitar Tech people, and yes, Coach K (Kiyoko) but no Maya. From where I was sitting, we saw a little opening from the black curtain covering the doors backstage, so guess what we saw? Skinny jeans and patent leather boots. Only means one thing: JONAS. Yes. Nick was changing into the blue collar shirt when we looked through the crack ( I mean the black curtained door hehe). Then we saw Papa J, and THEN what we think was Dani. Halfway through the wait, fans started the wave, and that continued on for about 15 minutes. Finally, at 7:36, the lights dimmed, the screaming became louder, and the energy intensified. The Wonder Girls came on stage and first sang "Nobody." On account that we heard that song for 2 hours, of course we HAD to do the dance. Then, they sang their second song, "Tell Me." After the Wonder Act, the lights came back on, and the 18 minute wait started. Again, we saw the Guitar Tech people check their instruments, I think we saw John Lloyd Taylor go on stage, and the lights were ran one final time. At 7:52, the lights dimmed one last final time, and the "We Will Rock You" beat began. With the fans stomping and clapping to the beat, the screaming intesified even more when Christa and Caroline came, then John Taylor and Ryan, then Jack and Garbo, and then the horns. Randy was carrying a "We LOVE the Horns" sign, but I have no idea where that came from. Then . . . . all of a sudden, as the opening intro was playing, yes, the three Jersey boys walked out of the curtained door, up the stage hand stairs, and then finally up onto the stage. And wow, that screaming was. . . just. . . WOW. They played their first song: Paranoid. Joe was wearing a black sweater type of thing, his curly cut hair, and a pair of tight white jeans. I've heard that the previous night's show, from a girl sitting behind us, that Joe's buttons on his pants came undone and he had to fix them with paperclips Nick gave him! Kevin was wearing a white V-neck, black suit top type of thing, and tight demin jeans. Nicholas wore a blue collared shirt, black tight jeans, and a buckled belt. Yes, from Section 115, I actually took the time to pay attention to that. The Set List was as followed:

TJTWWR
Poison Ivy
Hold On
Play My Music
Y3K
I Gotta Feelin'/Tonight
Gotta Find You
Video Girl
Sweet Caroline
WWIII
Lovebug
WYLMITE
Burnin' Up

During the song, "Year 3000," Joe brought up about 5 girls who dressed up as the TELLETUBBIES, who were, which in fact, we met and were right behind in line, and a girl with a gagillion buttons on her. And Joe asks the Telletubbie girls their names, and then he said, "Wait, the Telletubbies had real names? I didn't know that." Ohh Joseph. Then, during "Video Girl", Brad, their LiveNation tour manager, threw a sweater at Joe, and Joe did like a rooster defense sort of move. Thus, led to Brad going on stage to have a 'dance off'. lmfao. Brad, you're dancing was superb. Finally, right before WYLMITE, Joe was saying that John and Jack needed dates to Kevin's wedding, which led to Kevin's love advice. Kevin, BEST LOVE ADVICE ever! Sadly, at about 9ish, the concert ended. The final note went out with a big bang, and the lights came back on. Pshh. We could've stayed there to wait if someone was going to come out, but we hadn't ate since 3 PM that day. And the highlight of my day. We were eating at the Mohegan Buffet, and my cousin and I were talking about what if either the Jonases walked in or one of the band members did. We were all like "Ohh. There seems to be no more seats left, but you can sit on my lap." We stood up to get more food, and then as I was headed towards the dessert table, 4 teenies were following me. I kept walking, but then a little blondie stopped my path, looked at me sternly, and said, "OMG. DEMI LOVATO?!" And then I'm all like. . . . Uhmm. Sure? and continue walking back to my table. Then, when we were at the arcade, we started taking pictures and assumed that they were there, on account that we saw a Red Bull can, thinking it was Nick's.

Thank you Nicholas, Joseph, Paul Kevin II, Kevin Sr., Denise, Frankie, Brad, John Taylor, Garbo, Lawless, Ryan, Caroline, Christa, LiveNation, Mohegan Sun, and everyone who was involved in coming to CT that day. Thank you from the bottom of my heart :)
