A MOM'S VIEW OF DAUGHTERS JONAS BROTHERS OBSESSION
Article from NJ.com Posted by Bev McCarron March 04, 2008
My daughter is obsessed with three hot boys.
She's a Jonas Brothers fan, and her fixation has gotten so bad we take guests up to her room to enjoy the look of disbelief when they see that every millimeter of her walls are plastered with Jonas Brothers posters and pages torn from magazines.
A few months ago, my daughter, an eighth-grader, even won second prize in a fan contest for best-decorated walls.
The obsession isn't hard to understand for a parent who grew up during Beatlemania. But with the Fab Four, you knew them through their songs; you saw them on "The Ed Sullivan Show," and the fantasy ended there. You never seriously entertained the idea you could actually meet them.
But these days, computer-savvy young fans keep close tabs on their favorite bands. Word gets out immediately when the Jonas Brothers schedule a "meet and greet." My daughter and her friends desperately wanted to go to one in Philly, except for one minor obstacle pointed out by their parents -- school.
Their Jonas Brothers stalking, however, has taught them more about geography than they could ever learn in class. They constantly check to see where the brothers are appearing and whether it's within driving distance.
They were at the Rockaway Mall in December, when the boys gave a live concert at their favorite Jersey mall (they grew up in Wyckoff).
One long-suffering dad, and my daughter's five friends, arrived at the mall at 4 a.m and stood for about 10 hours waiting for the Jonas Brothers' four-song set to begin. One of the girls nearly fainted. She missed the concert, but the boys politely stopped in the medic room and waved to her.
My daughter and her friends still replay the videos they took, mostly footage of outstrected hands waving at the Jonas Brothers, who are drowned out by hysterical screams.
It was hard to remember that, just last summer, the Jonas Brothers were a freebie act at the hot-air balloon festival in Readington. Now, they're selling out arenas.
When tickets went on sale for a March Jonas brothers concert at the Izod Center, I didn't think it could be anything like the Hannah Montana ticket-buying frenzy. But it was.
At 10 a.m,. tickets were released and, within minutes, all had vanished. Along with some other parents, I managed to get five. But the seats were too far away for our daughters, who bemoaned the fact they wouldn't be close enough to their idols.
Since then, they've been vying in radio station giveaways in the hopes of getting a seat near the stage, or better yet, a backstage pass.
I try to tell my daughter it's unrealistic to think she'll ever meet them. She doesn't believe me. Online, she sees dozens of other girls who have succedeed. They post pictures with the brothers, complete with detailed stories.
Who am I to say it won't happen?
It looks like it might after all. My daughter's friends found relatives with show-biz connections --and possible backstage passes.
I'm thinking that'll be the end of it. They'll meet the Jonas Brothers, get their picture taken and leave with an autograph.
Then, it'll be on to the next hot act. Maybe I should be looking for new Jonas Brothers fans. If we're lucky, they'll want to redecorate their rooms, and we'll have a few posters for sale.
JONAS BROTHERS INTERVIEW
Here are excerpts from an awesome Jonas Brothers interview with Grand Central magazine. They sound so down to earth.
Do you guys ever wish you had a normal life?
Nick: I think we love what we do and we know that we're living a lot of people's dreams.
How do you like acting?
Joe: For us, acting is a lot of fun. It's something new, for sure. It's also kind of easier than being on stage, because if you mess up a line, you can say, 'cut,' and start over, rather than being on stage.
If you mess up a lyric, you can't say, 'All right, cut. Let's do that song again.' So we have a lot of fun acting. And I think we're probably going to be doing it more often.
Do you guys ever get sick of your songs?
Kevin: I actually don't think we have that problem.
Nick: Maybe like the older songs, when we first started, we sometimes think about how happy we are with our music now. But usually we're not like, 'Oh, no, not this one.'
Kevin: We still listen to the countdowns on the radio stations every night, and are excited. If we hear a song on the radio, we like turn it up and crank it up.
We're freaking out that we're on Top 40 radio, and that we're actually moving up the chart is a whole other thing, and we love it.
That's so cool, I wonder what they do when 'See You Again' comes on the radio! ;]
