The Jonas Brothers Bring It Home
Aug. 19 2008, Published 6:00 a.m. ET
Fans wholeheartedly welcomed The Jonas Brothers home to New Jersey on a recent leg of their Burnin' Up tour, and Extra was backstage to catch the most up-to-date info on Nick, Joe and Kevin.
"It's a great feeling coming back to play in our home state," Joe tells Extra. The fans are always the loudest here."
Speaking of fans, the brothers have encountered some pretty crazy attention from their legions of adoring teen and tween fanatics, including one girl who climbed onto the roof of their California home in an attempt to get a peek at the boys.
"We weren't home," says Joe. "If we were home, we probably wouldn't let it happen. It was funny. Our fans can do funny things sometimes but we love them."??
As for their second album, released last week and already climbing the charts, one song in particular has a special significance for Nick.
"The title track on the new record is called 'A Little Bit Longer' and it's a song I wrote about my diabetes," he says. "It's really close to my heart, the song, and I play it live every night to tell my story and just basically try to give people some hope."?
