Jonas Brothers expand tour following sellouts
Red-hot pop-rockers the Jonas Brothers have sold out several shows on their upcoming "Look Me In the Eyes" tour and have added nearly a dozen dates to the US outing.
The tween sensations broke a record at Los Angeles' Gibson Amphitheater, selling out their Feb. 2 concert in two minutes, according to a press release. They immediately added two more Gibson shows--a second one Feb. 2 and a third Feb. 3.
Since tickets for the first round of gigs went on sale Saturday (1/12), the Jonas Brothers have also sold out venues in Las Vegas; Tucson, AZ; Everett, WA; Portland, OR; and El Paso, TX. Additional stops have been added in Denver; Little Rock, AR; Lafayette, LA; Detroit and Grand Rapids, MI; Houston and Grand Prairie, TX; and Peoria and Rosemont, IL. Details are listed below.
Tickets for the new dates go on sale beginning Saturday (1/19).
Last week, the Jonas Brothers wrapped a lengthy stint on the wildly successful Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana "Best of Both Worlds Tour." The siblings--20-year-old Kevin, 18-year-old Joe, and 15-year-old Nick--are now in the studio working on their third album, which is due in July.
As with their current self-titled sophomore set, the guys co-wrote all the material on the forthcoming record and they've tapped producer John Fields once again.
The Jonas Brothers' latest album debuted at No. 5 on The Billboard 200 in August and has since reached platinum status. The set has spawned hit singles "S.O.S.," "Hold On," and "Year 3000," all of which are streaming at the trio's MySpace page.
