I think everyone should read this. Some of you may learn something from what happened in Dallas after the 1st Nick Jonas and the Administration show on January 2nd.
I ALMOST met Nick... I normally wouldn't complain about something like this, but I've been thinking about it, and maybe I can open up someone's eyes with this story so that it won't happen to them.
After the 1st Dallas show on January 2nd, several fans waited around for Nick to leave... I waited too... and normally I never wait around after concerts, but I had a good feeling about this time. Most fans had to leave because either they thought it was too cold, or because their parents were making them leave (I am from Iowa, so Dallas felt tropical to me).
So a little after midnight, we see nick in the parking garage area at the House of Blues... I think we all figured that he was just going to get in the car and leave like everyone else did, but I kinda thought that he might come over to meet us since there weren't many of us left... and I know how the JoBros like to meet their fans every time it is possible. (part of the reason I love them so much, they are amazing to their fans!).
So Nick walks past his car, and keeps walking across the street towards us. (At this time I am thinking, wow! I am actually going to meet him!)... he gets to the middle of the street and this is where the fans ruin everything... more than half of the crowd waiting for him starts running at him, and they mob him in the middle of the street... I mean, there were cars coming and everything! It was bad. And these girls were just screaming in his face... WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?
Security was yelling and yelling at everyone to get back on the sidewalk... but no one listened. Nick even waited a few moments to give those girls a chance to calm down and get back on the sidewalk, but they were acting too immature and idiotic to realize that he was coming across the street to meet us. It just doesn't make sense that he would stop in the middle of the street while there are cars coming, does it? He had full intentions of meeting us!
So because of this, Nick had no choice but to turn around and leave. He was really patient with everyone though, he smiled and waved at us as he left.
I just want to know one thing... WHY DO PEOPLE ACT LIKE THAT? Don't you realize that they are just human beings like us? Talented human beings, yes... but why can't fans just give them some respect? Would you like it if someone mobbed you in the middle of the street and they screamed in your face? Can you imagine how scary that would be?
It's perfectly fine to be excited... just know where to draw the line! I mean... I wanted to tell every one of those girls how he would have came across the street, said hi to all of us, and most likely would have gone down the line and taken pictures with us. There were only about 20 of us there... but no... because they acted completely crazy like that... all they got was a wave goodbye from Nick...
I am sure this happens all the time, and I am sure it will continue to happen all the time... but perhaps at least one person can learn from this... or maybe you can calm the person down next to you so that THEY don't get all crazy and run at one of the boys all scary like....
FAIL. Major fail...

@JonasGal1996 and then i got tickets to their concert.. it wasnt a rly good seat, but it wasnt a bad seat.. So the day came and i waited outside the venue for up to 8 hours & i was SUPER happy about this. and then all of a sudden: they arrive in their black van and i was in total shock with a huge smile on my face..but they didnt come out of their van, but i can tell you i was inches close from their van...but yah, anyways.. later that day i was walking with some girls i met there....

@JonasGal1996 WHAT? dont say that! You WILL meet them!.. i know its hard to believe, but trust me. I was like that before, i remember always saying to myself "man, i'll never meet them, they'll never come to this city, blah.." and then one day everything turn out the way i never tought.. So they came to do a concert for the 1st time in Vancouver (where i live) and i was soooo exited about this cause i'd never been to one of their concerts.. and then i bought tickets to their concert...

Heres my story:
Jan. 4th 2010, it was a cold chilly night. Hahah Just kidding well it was after the concert and I ran out to he alley to the door Nick was so pose to come out of. Well I was right there in front camera ready to take a picture, but no Nick decided to take a different route. I was so mad. It was my first concert, i've been waiting for four years for this. But i'm still happy I got to see him in concert :)

so basically, his entire band went in the hotel's restaurant to wait for him to come in (they had tables reserved downstairs) & of course he couldn't get out of his van. So my mom was by his tour bus when she was walking to our hotel, & she said Nick got out of the van & walked into his tour bus by himself :( how sad is that? fans make me so mad sometimes. anyway, then john fields tweeted that they eventually got together to go bowling at like 2am. It was sad though, just pathetic.

just as he was getting out ALL THESE FANS come from across the street, THROUGH TRAFFIC, and start trying to JUMP INTO HIS VAN!!!! So all of us fans who were waiting are yelling at them, & although you'd think Nick was mad he was really sweet about it & kept waving to the fans who waited. Then shrugged as if to say "i'm sorry." *& the van drove off quickly. ALL THESE CRAZY GIRLS chased his van down the street, through busy traffic!!!! They were beating on his car :( .... contd

Almost that EXACT SAME THING happened to me last night.
I was in Minneapolis, waiting for him after the concert. We knew where his hotel was, so my little sister & I walked there, and there were maybe 8 other girls waiting. So after an hour this van pulls up, Nick is in the van with his band & some friends. The band gets out, Nick is waving & smiling through the window (WE'RE GOING TO MEET HIM!!!) and we're all really calm & excited. Just as he's about to get out of the van
