"Nick Jonas will be hitting the road early next year -- without his bros, Kevin and Joe.\r\nThe youngest Jonas, 17, has announced five concert dates for his side project, Nick Jonas &amp;amp; The Administration, to go on sale Saturday.\r\nPerforming in intimate venues rather than the arenas he&amp;apos;s used to, Nick will sing tracks from the group&amp;apos;s upcoming debut disc, Who I Am, out Feb. 2. Dates have already been announced for shows in Dallas (Jan. 2), Nashville (Jan 4), Washington, D.C. (Jan. 6), New York City (Jan. 7) and Chicago (Jan. 17).\r\nLook back at the band&amp;apos;s goofy appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.\r\nAnd while Nick is hard at work on his new record, The Jonas Brothers insisted in October they were still together as a band.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;We&amp;apos;ve said from the beginning of our career as the Jonas Brothers that anything we do outside of the group is a side project because you can&amp;apos;t break up brothers. My brothers are my biggest supporters, and were on the phone with me every day while I was in the studio asking how it was going, and telling me they couldn&amp;apos;t wait to hear the record,&amp;quot; Nick wrote on the group&amp;apos;s MySpace blog.\r\nRevisit the day&amp;apos;s top celeb news photos.\r\nKevin, 21, and Joe, 20, couldn&amp;apos;t be prouder of their little brother.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;We know that we will be doing music together for the rest of our lives,&amp;quot; Kevin and Joe wrote in a joint statement. &amp;quot;But we are thrilled for you to hear these songs that were on his heart. A three-chord strand is not easily broken, and one thing&amp;apos;s for sure...this three chord strand is stronger now than it&amp;apos;s ever been.&amp;quot;\r\nNick Jonas &amp;amp; The Administration will make their performance debut at Wednesday&amp;apos;s Grammy Nomination Concert, airing live at 9p.m./ET on CBS."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
