Jonas Brothers cancel 6 stadium shows, shift to smaller venues for 2025 tour
The Jonas Brothers have scrapped stadium shows in six major U.S. cities on their upcoming 'Jonas20: Living the Dream Tour,' opting instead for smaller venues amid what appears to be soft ticket sales.
The pop trio — Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas — notified fans late last week that concerts in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Detroit, Dallas, Washington, D.C. and the Chicago area will no longer take place in large ballparks and arenas.
New bookings in more modest amphitheaters and arenas will replace the original dates.
Ticketholders will be issued automatic refunds.
The group clarified that fans will need to buy new tickets for the rescheduled shows, but those who originally purchased tickets for the canceled concerts will receive priority access to a pre-sale through their Ticketmaster accounts.
'To the fans, we're so excited to get out and be with you for our 20th-anniversary tour!' the band wrote in a statement on social media Saturday, June 14. 'Every decision we make is with you in mind, ensuring the best experience for our incredible fans. We're making some changes, but rest assured, all performances are still happening on the same dates and in the same cities. We're pouring our hearts into making this the best tour we've ever done.'
Some of the most notable venue changes include the Sept. 6 performance scheduled for Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles now moved to Intuit Dome in Inglewood. Other downshifts include Nationals Park to Jiffy Lube Live (Washington D.C.), Citizens Bank Park to Freedom Mortgage Pavilion (Philadelphia), Wrigley Field to Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre (Chicago), Comerica Park to Little Caesars Arena (Detroit) and Globe Life Field to Dos Equis Pavilion (Dallas).
Despite the shuffle, not all stadium appearances have been scrapped. The tour is still set to launch Aug. 10 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey and hit Boston's Fenway Park on Aug. 23.
The group's Sept. 25 performance at San Francisco's Chase Center also remains unchanged.
The tour coincides with their eighth studio album, 'Greetings From Your Hometown,' set for release Aug. 8. The Jonas Brothers last played Chase Center in October 2019 on a comeback tour supporting the album 'Happiness Begins,' featuring their biggest single to date, 'Sucker,' which premiered at No. 1 on Billboard.
'We apologize for any inconvenience these changes have caused and we can't wait to see you on the road!' the band added.

Review: ‘Come Back to the 5 & Dime' musical a clarion call for trans resilience
With the rights and freedoms of the LGBTQ community currently under attack across the nation, it felt like nothing short of a clarion call to see trans actress Shakina belt out a country-fried ballad touting her character's tenacity to thrive on her own terms on opening night of Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean: A New Musical.' As Joanne, who her friends last knew as Joe, responds to a snide comment from a peer dismissing her new name, Shakina delivers a thunderous rebuke that showcases her vocal power while compellingly reframing her character's identity not as a choice but as a necessity. It's a show-stopping moment — one of many in the musical adaptation that made its world premiere on Saturday, June 21 at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts in conjunction with TheaterWorks Silicon Valley and Broadway & Beyond Theatricals. Directed by Giovanna Sardelli, with a book by Ashley Robinson and music by Dan Gillespie Sells (of U.K. pop band the Feeling), the production complements the occasionally playful, often profound lyrics penned by show star Shakina. It's a mighty accomplishment for the artist and television actress,best known for her role in the sitcom 'Difficult People,' who has spent more than a decade developing a musical from Ed Graczyk's 1976 cult-classic play and subsequent 1982 film of the same name, both directed by the legendary Robert Altman. In this reimagining, monologues are swapped for musical numbers as the Disciples of Jimmy Dean — a group of high school friends bonded through their shared love of actor James Dean and their near-mythic obsession of his brief, ill-fated stop in their small Texas hometown to film his final movie, 1956's 'Giant' — reunite at the local Woolworth's 20 years later. The gathering quickly sparks a series of timely revelations about gender, motherhood and queer identity. Headlined by Shakina's memorable turn as a woman who comes home after leaving as a boy, 'Come Back to the 5 & Dime' marks the second standout theatrical work to emerge from a former cast member of Hulu's cult comedy 'Difficult People.' It follows fellow alum Cole Escola's staggering success with the Tony Award-winning 'Oh, Mary!,' the hit Broadway show he created and starred in. Now, Shakina delivers her own contribution to the stage: a bold reimagining of Graczyk's original script, infused with a renewed focus on transgender identity and a soundtrack more than worthy of a cast recording. The result is a production that feels both destined for and deserving of similar Broadway acclaim. The supporting cast is just as strong. Lauren Marcus brings tender strength to the role of Mona, a woman who defines herself by a fling she claims she had with James Dean and the son she says resulted from their fleeting encounter. Stephanie Gibson's Sissy stakes her identity on her foul mouth and busty chest, while Hayley Lovegren's Stella Mae lights up the stage as a firecracker full of Texas sass. Ellie Van Amerongen (Joe/Jimmy Dean), Ashley Cowl (Edna Louise) and Judith Miller (Loretta) round out a cast that shines from top to bottom. Each is given ample opportunity to command the stage, thanks to a dynamite book that doles out intrigue and introspection at a steady pace. One especially poignant moment comes when Joanne delivers the line 'rough edges, by design, reflect a wider range of light' during a tender duet set in the store's bathroom, which underscores the show's quiet defiance amid ongoing battles in America over the rights of trans people to use restrooms that align with their gender identity. All the while, Nina Ball's gorgeous scenic design ensures that the worn-down 5 & Dime never feels visually stagnant, even as it serves as the production's sole setting. Late in the story, she introduces a clever bit of stagecraft that transports the Disciples back to a formative high school talent show, adding an unexpected layer of dynamism to the space. But perhaps what's most powerful in 'Come Back to the Five & Dime' is how Joanne's transition is treated not as a centerpiece of the drama, but as one integral piece in a messier picture. While we'd all like to look as cool as the late James Dean in the black-and-white photos that crowd the walls of the group's old hangout, the alternative — however frightening it may often be — is simply to keep living as our truest selves.

Rosé Matches BTS As Her Single Remains A Bestseller
Rosé's 'Apt.' ties BTS's 'Dynamite' as the longest-running K-pop hit on the Digital Song Sales ... More chart, as the tune earns its thirty-fourth week on the Billboard tally. NEW YORK, NEW YORK - DECEMBER 07: Rosé, aka Roseanne Park MBE, is seen in Midtown on December 07, 2024 in New York City. (Photo by TheStewartofNY/GC Images) Rosé's single 'Apt.' is the rare song from a K-pop artist that not only earns a lofty debut on the Billboard charts in America, but also manages to stick around. The track has maintained its impressive performance across all relevant consumption metrics in the United States for months, continuing to rank as a top streamer, radio favorite, and bestselling cut. At this point, the tune has been making history and breaking records thanks to its longevity, and this frame is no different, as it remains one of the top-selling titles in America yet again. Rosé's 'Apt.' Remains a Bestseller Rosé's collaboration with Bruno Mars is still present on the Digital Song Sales chart, dropping from No. 17 to No. 20. This latest turn marks the thirty-fourth week for 'Apt.' on Billboard's ranking of the bestselling individual tracks of any style or language in the U.S. on platforms like iTunes. As it turns out, that's a very special number for Rosé. Rosé Ties BTS for a Longevity Record 'Apt.' is now tied with 'Dynamite' by BTS as the longest-running tune by any K-pop artist in the history of the Digital Song Sales chart. Both cuts have lived on the list for 34 frames. Whether 'Apt.' can manage just one more stay is yet to be seen. The sales tally only features 25 spots, and 'Apt.' is close to falling off the roster. In the past tracking period, Luminate reports that the global smash sold 1,900 copies, a number which is down from the frame before. Depending on the competition it faces and how fans of Rosé and Mars show up, the Blackpink singer could soon break her tie with BTS. Or, there's a chance the two will remain tied. Rosé Also Beats BTS Star Jimin 'Apt.' has lived on many Billboard charts for more than 30 weeks, and it's still going. The tune breaks Rosé's tie with 'Who' by Jimin, and 'Apt.' now stands as the longest-charting track by any K-pop act in Hot 100 history with a thirty-fourth stay on that tally this time around. The cut is also still present on the Streaming Songs and Radio Songs charts, as well as a handful of pop radio rankings.
