Jonas Brothers at Montage
By Nora Jean Backus
Moosic, PA---August 1, 2008 was one of the best days of my life not only did I get to see the Jonas Brothers in concert. I got to meet them Nick, Joe and Kevin. The concert was so amazing it was well spent money. I had so much fun! Nick made me cry my heart out, when he sang “A Little Bit Longer” and talked about life and stuff. I was not the only one believe me.
