Why haven't I seen Jonah on TV?

~ Jonah has been invited to appear on Ellen, Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel, George Lopez, Wendy Williams, Breakfast Television, etc, etc, as well as requests to be on America's Got Talent and requests to do numerous interviews, personal appearances, play venues, etc.  We have graciously declined.  Jonah's just a little kid, he calls playing drums "playing".  If we make him start doing this stuff, its no longer playing, it becomes work.  When he's old enough to decide for himself what he wants to do, then it will be his choice.  For now, we believe it is best to just let him continue being a kid.  :)
