"We love recording and creating new music in the studio and enjoy doing television but performing live music together for our fans is the ultimate - nothing can compare to the energy from the crowd," says Nick Jonas. "We can't wait to get back on the road this summer with Demi and our friends from 'Camp Rock.' Together we're going to bring our fans a show that they'll never forget."
