Joe Jonas: Demi Lavato - Camp Rock

The Jonas Brothers rock the camp in Disney’s hit smash summer musical Camp Rock!

Okay, so i have finally gotten the motivation to write about the Camp Rock movie starring the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lavato. To start off with, the movie was great in typical Disney style. There’s a girl with a dream, a boy with a big ego, friends there to assist the girl, and snobby rich girls who try and win the boy over. But the way they put the movie together was amazing.

Mitchie, played by Demi Lavato was the girl with a dream of being a singer, and Joe Jonas (as Shane) is the already-famous rockstar who over hears Mitchie singing and falls head over heals for her voice. The big thing in this movie was not the singing, or the quest to live a life long dream. But to find the girl behind the voice. Shane Gray goes on a search to find her. But has no success.

The rich snob that is trying to win Shane over is Tess Tyler (Meaghan Martin). She frames Mitchie and her friend Caitlyn(played by Alyson Stoner) so they wouldn’t be able to compete in the camp’s “Final Jam” concert, which keeps Mitchie and Caitlyn from winning the grand prize, and keeps Shane from finding the girl he was searching for. But Mitchie and Caitlyn find a way around that problem so they can still perform in the final jam.

Yes, I left out some major and minor details. But you get the idea. And yes, if you haven’t seen the movie and you are wondering, Nick and Kevin Jonas are in it, but not as much as Joe. And speaking of Kevin Jonas, his character(Jason) is a bit slow, or as a friend of mine put it “He is so ditzy its insane”. Nick’s character(Nate) is the complete opposite. He’s kinda like a control freak, always making sure their record deal is still in check after the dramatic attitude Shane is throwing around.

So, overall, this movie was amazing. I loved it 100%. Since the Jonas Brothers are in it, that makes it even better. What can I say, I’m a sucker for thick curly hair ;D Two thumbs up for Disney Channels Camp Rock!!

The Jonas Brothers are beginning their summer “Burning Up” concert tour with Demi Lovato starting on July 5th in Detroit, Michigan.

Rolling Stone Magazine releases their most anticipated concerts and shows of 2008. What do you think?

Well, I can’t say I’m terribly impressed with this summer’s offerings. I know I’m HUGELY dissappointed that Rocklahoma didn’t make the list. Here’s the run-down of summer concerts, and my own thoughts on the matter.

Jimmy Buffett

A perfect demonstration of a shift in a genres sound actually changing a band’s classification from rock to country without the band changing at all.

Maybe I can find that hot lipstick lez I hooked up with at Lilith back in 98?

Nine Inch Nails

Openers Phantom Planet, Motion City Soundtrack
I just love boys in eyeliner. They make me feel all warm and fuzzy. Seriously. No… i mean it!
