Jonas Brothers dropping in on fans
"OMG! Is that ... the Jonas Brothers??!!"
If you're at a theater this weekend for "Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience," that might just be Kevin, Joe and Nick popping in to say hi.
The Jonas Brothers announced yesterday that they will be thanking some of their fans in person over the opening weekend of their new film. Starting Friday, the band of brothers will take off on their "Surprise Theater Invasion" tour, a cross-country, multi-city trip to surprise fans in theaters nationwide. No one's saying where the private jet carrying Kevin, Joe and Nick may land, only that they'll be moving from city to city, enabling them to reach fans in several cities in just a few days.
The film blends excerpts from the Brothers' "Burning Up" concert tour, including guest performances from Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift, with behind-the-scenes footage and includes the premiere of the song "Love Is On Its Way."
