Pop fans of a certain age in the Bay Area get ready to feel ancient and ecstatic simultaneously. The Jonas Brothers are celebrating two decades of pop-rock confection by taking their show on the road, and yes, they're swooping through Northern California too, but not before they make some serious noise over in Columbus.

Mark your calendars for November 8th, when the brotherly trio will grace the Schottenstein Center in Columbus, Ohio. Their "Jonas 20: Living the Dream" tour is clearly more than a nostalgic throwback – it's their thank-you card to a legion of fans who've stuck around from the days of shopping mall gigs to the dizzying heights of stadium stardom. "We’re beyond excited to hit the road and celebrate 20 years of music," said the Jonas Brothers in a statement given to WBNS, "Our fans have been with us through every chapter, and this tour is our way of honoring them, the memories we’ve made, and the ones we’ll create together. We can’t wait to make this our biggest, most unforgettable tour yet."

The "S.O.S" and "Burnin' Up" singers, whose origins date back to 2005 in New Jersey, have promised a night to remember. Columbus fans have been leaning into the anticipation, recalling past local performances, with their 2008 Nationwide Arena concert being a standout. However, the sting from their canceled 2013 LC Pavilion show still lingers for some. According to The Columbus Dispatch, this upcoming tour includes stops in Cleveland on November 11 and Indianapolis on November 2 and wraps the nearby circuit in Pittsburgh on November 12.

If you're feeling the FOMO rising from the heartland, fret not. After serving Midwestern nostalgia, the band will potentially set sights on the West Coast. Though exact dates for a California leg haven't been revealed, history suggests that skipping such a fervent fanbase would be unlikely. Even so, the Tri-State area tour announcement by FOX19 underscores just how jam-packed an affair the brothers are planning. With twenty years of hits behind them and an army of devoted followers, the stage is set for the Jonas Brothers to invoke all the emotions – nostalgia, elation, and perhaps a few joyful tears. Tickets will fly, so keep those eyes peeled and click your fingers when ready.
