Jonas Brothers are getting fans so excited for their new album!

Joe Jonas is taking a lighthearted jab at Kevin Jonas after he almost fell on stage.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter “It’s clear this theater isn’t used to rock concerts,” Nick Jonas roared from the stage. “The spotlights can’t hit us because you’re all standing.”  He was right: Broadway’s Marquis Theater, which has housed acclaimed but not quite foot-stomping, hip-shaking productions of musicals like “Tootsie” and “Beetlejuice,” isn’t accustomed to two hours of 1,600 jumping, screaming fans. Yet the venue’s infrastructure will be put to the test during the Jonas Brothers’ five-night residency from March 14-18. (We ask this with love: Can the mezzanine support five nights of bouncing concert-goers?)  Night one of the limited engagement — wherein each show focuses on one album, in order of release — took the audience all the way back to the aughts with their 2007 self-titled album “Jonas Brothers” and successfully kicked off the week of performances. The residency continues through Saturday with “A Little Bit Longer” (2008), “Lines, Vines, and Trying Times” (2009) and “Happiness Begins (2019)” before culminating with the first live performance of the band’s newest album, “The Album,” which dropped May 12.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic It used to be that it was considered a Herculean feat if artists dug into their back catalogs to recreate two, three or even four classic albums in their entirety for a run of back-to-back concerts. Now, Elvis Costello has pulled off something to make even a stunt like that seem like the stuff of slackers. His 10-night stand at New York’s Gramercy Theatre was billed as “100 Songs and More,” with the artist laying out 10 unique songs he would be playing each night, just as a starting point. By the time the run wrapped up with one final three-hour show Wednesday night, the emphasis was on the …and more, with Costello actually having played exactly 250 songs over the course of the Feb. 9-22 residency (not counting interpolations), with only a handful of those breaking his vow to have no repeats between shows.

Adele has candidly shared more details about the extent of her back problems during a recent performance at her ‘Weekends With Adele’ residency in Las Vegas. The 34-year-old songstress expressed that she was performing with a disintegrated disk in her spine, saying: “Is anyone else kind of my age starting getting bad knees? I have got really bad sciatica in my left leg and my L5 disc is not fucking there anymore. It’s worn away.”According to the Cleveland Clinic, the L5 disk’s associated nerve, situated at the lower back, is responsible for providing “sensation to the outer side of your lower leg, the upper part of your foot and the space between your first and second toe”.

Katy Perry’s ongoing Las Vegas residency “Play” picked back up for the first time since last year on Friday, Feb. 17 at Resorts World Theatre and based on what we’ve seen on Instagram, the five-part show complete with an encore seems to be as theatrical, kitschy, camp, cartoonish and glitzy as ever.Plus, it looks like the infamous Left Shark made infamous by Perry’s 2015 Super Bowl halftime show performance makes an appearance too.Surprisingly though, you won’t need to be a high roller to get in the door to this visually spectacular concert.At the time of publication, we found tickets going for as low as $62 before fees on Vivid Seats.Not a bad price considering you’ll get to hear hits like “I Kissed A Girl,” “California Gurls,” “Hot N Cold,” “Firework” and “Dark Horse” which has been streamed over a billion times on Spotify.That’s not to mention “Teenage Dream,” “Roar” and “Swish Swish.”And we’re still just getting started.

Adele has been playing through the pain during her Las Vegas residency after a disc in her back has "worn away". The 34-year-old singer told a Sin City crowd how her L5 vertebra - the final section of the lumbar spine, injury to which can cause numbness and weakness in the legs - has disintegrated and she has "really bad sciatica" in her left leg. Speaking at her 'Weekends With Adele' residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, she asked her audience: "Is anyone else kind of my age starting getting bad knees? "I have got really bad sciatica in my left leg and my L5 disc is not f****** there anymore.

There’s nothing better than a girls’ night — and Kim Kardashian and sister Kendall Jenner can attest to that.

Mark Sutherland Sarah Brightman’s 40-year singing career has brought her global acclaim. But, the British star says, what she’s best known for varies according to where she is in the world. “In China, they know me far more for my later recorded work and not necessarily for ‘Phantom of the Opera,’” she tells Variety. “I’ve worked with very famous artists in Japan.

It’s great – it’s like you’re a new person in each city you go to…” Brightman’s American persona will be in the spotlight when the soprano is awarded her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Oct. 6, presented for her contributions to live theater and live performance.
