In Argentina we are used to receiving shows by international artists, with the same production and exposure that they have in Anglo-Saxon countries. Last year, this was more than proven with Taylor Swift and The weekendwhich appeared in our country with first-class scenery and facilities.
The same can be said of Coldplay, whose ten concerts at the River Plate stadium were exactly the same as they do in the rest of the world. No cuts. Neither in time nor in the experience that participants live from the moment they enter until they leave the show.
Over the weekend, a controversy broke out on social media because, apparently, the Jonas Brothers don’t share that philosophy of giving fans all over the world the same show.
Last year the brothers who They took their first steps as Disney children They began their tour in the United States and Canada, following the success of their time on Broadway, where they held several concerts. On their promotional poster they promised one thing: “5 albums. One night”.
The show for the magazine Rolling Stone it was “really ambitious for any group”. During their live performance, the three brothers spanned their entire musical career, playing a total of 60 songs. But it was not the same once the international dates scheduled for 2024 began, of which Argentina is part.
The first stop on this leg of the tour was the Philippines A wave of criticism was unleashed from the band’s fans.. Without warning they cut the show, which lasted just under two hours and only had 29 songs, less than half that of Anglo-Saxon countries.
What will happen with the Argentine show
According to the official Jonas Brothers fan club in Argentina, everything indicates that the same thing that happened in the Philippines (and now also in Indonesia) will happen on all Latin American dates.
The “Ionatics” noticed a detail they had not noticed. On the promotional poster for the international tour the band has some dates marked in red, but this is not a matter of design. Cities differentiated with another color do not follow a pattern, and it seems to indicate something.
Apparently that’s what it means The Jonas Brothers will not present the complete show in those cities, but a shortened version. Likewise, they won’t travel with the full band of musicians or the massive stage they used in the United States. As happened in the Philippines and Indonesia (the first countries marked in red), here too there will be no changes in customs.
Furthermore, it is no coincidence that the promotional premise in these cities stopped being “5 albums. One night” and changed to “Celebrate 5 albums”.
Basically, Asia and Latin America would have the version low cost of the tour, but without having received communication before the sale of tickets. Argentine fans have already started a campaign in X and TikTok to request the complete list of songs of the three shows that will take place in our country.
So far, despite the statement that has been trending for several hours on social networks, Nick, Kevin and Joe have not commented on the matter. We will have to wait for the arrival of the first date in our country to see if what his followers suspected will really be confirmed.
The Jonas Brothers will perform on April 25, 26 and 27 at the Movistar Arena in the city of Buenos Aires.
