I hugged someone who hugged someone who hugged Joe Jonas

Yup, it was exciting.

 

When I realized that I could no longer get tickets for the Jonas Brothers concert at Summerfest a couple months ago, I was pretty upset. Then my friend’s sister won tickets and she got to go, and the jealousy got even worse. I went to Summerfest on Sunday and saw thousands of girls in Jonas Brothers apparel excited to go to the concert. That was hard.

 

But now I’m starting to wonder why Jonas Brothers, or any boy bands, have such huge appeal. Well, there’s the obvious. Look at them:

   

But if it’s just their looks that are so great, why does everyone (correction: every girl) love their music so much? I’m not going to lie, I know the words to more than a few of their songs. I normally listen to more alternative music (The Wombats and Red Hot Chili Peppers are my favorites) that aren’t really anything like Jonas Brothers, but when a JoBros song comes up on my iPod, I’m not going to skip it.

 

Whether I have reasons to love them or not, though, I don’t think I’ll get over missing their concert anytime soon.

These guy's are just the "flavor of the day". In a year from now nobody will care about them & they will try to re-claim their brief fame by doing some dumb reality show.I bet one of them is gay also.

Her?   

It was so nice to see all those excited girls on Sunday.  I am happy that some things never change and girls still dream of being Mrs. Jonas, Mrs. Timberlake, Mrs. Le Bon, or Mrs. McCartney!

The comment above ought to be flagged. It is as weak in use of grammar as it is poor in taste. So what if one of them were gay?

I'm sorry you weren't able to go to the concert!

Haha, thanks for the sympathy. And I agree; to W.A.M., what makes you think one is gay, and why would it matter?
