The brothers Jonai sent this to us yesterday, and now they’re in Toronto!! Their band is rehearsing on stage as I type this, and girls on the street are screaming for THEM. I can’t even imagine what it’s gonna be like when the JoBros hit the stage… omg. Anyway, here’s what they had to say!

Hey Everyone!

Our World Tour kicks off tonight [June 20] in Dallas and then we’re off to see our Canadian fans in Toronto at the MuchMusic Video Awards tomorrow, can’t wait! We’re honored to be co-hosting and performing at the awards. And, we’re nominated for UR Fave International video, so don’t forget to vote (here)!

The fans in Canada have always been a huge support for us and we can’t wait to see you again. The last time we were in Toronto we did an interview for Live@Much before our show, it was crazy – 6,000 of you came out to see the interview. We’ll never forget that!

Thanks everyone – we can’t wait to see you at the MMVAs and on our tour!

JB

Extra! Extra! Uncut MMVA Performer Interviews, Fresh Off the Rock Wagon!

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

Whether you camped out at the rehearsals today, or spent the morning tweaking your crafty plans to be the first one down at Queen and John tomorrow morning, you’re probably just as ri-freaking-diculously excited about the 2009 MMVAs as me. Except no one is more excited than me. Here, you can have this second place ribbon.

Now, I don’t want you to suffer all night, raw anticipation curdling your blood because you need an MMVA fix. So we’ve generously hunted down some of this year’s fabulous performers, held them up at (plastic) knife point, and got them to do some wicked, educational interviews for your viewing pleasuuure.

We’ve got clips from Alexisonfire, Billy Talent, Classified, Shiloh, and Kelly Clarkson: and for some reason they all talk about Lady Gaga. These babies are fresh from the streets, and totally uncut: you will be able to see and hear everything. Like Patrick Stewart.

Follow the cut for some sweet links!

We managed to snag George for a coupla minutes before Alexisonfire rehearsed their killa MMVA performance. But you already knew these gents can blow away a stage, riiiighhhht? Here’s what George had to say:

Just about to soundcheck at the 2009 MMVAs. I brought a bunch of fireworks that i was planning to shoot off during the show, but it turns out the fire marshal shut me down pretty quick. Oh well. Maybe next time. I’ll have to think of something else for our big finish. Maybe they will let me do some live skeet shooting from the stage? Probably not.

Omigosh. Almost 11pm and rehearsals are over for the day. It was pretty epic to see Billy Talent tearing the roof off… the.. roof. Only this year, you’ll totally be able to see the performance from the street! Check it. The photos I mean. Shhh, I’m tired.
