Backstreet Boys

So what do you think about the Backstreet Boys coming back to town? Kevin isn't with them anymore. It's been 15 years since they were "boys". Is this a nostalgia show or are the Backstreet Boys still relevant? Do you love'em? Do you remember their amazing show on Citadel Hill? Come on! Tell us what you really think.

I absolutely love them and am nostalgic myself that they are coming back! I saw them 3 years ago in Mtl and their show is still amazing! I'm one of those crazy girls that was at both the citadel hill and metro centre concert and will also be crazy at this one! Yay for BSB!!!

I am the girl who won the "Perfect Fan" contest on Much Music in 1999 and got to go onstage with them, so I am SUPER HAPPY!!!!! I love them and have seen them numerous times in Halifax and have flown to Toronto. I will probably try to get tickets for the Halifax AND Moncton show!!!! YAHOOO!!!! Backstreets Back Baby!!!!!!

I'm very excited about the Backstreet Boys coming, not for me but for my 74 year old mother. She LOVES them and I will be taking her to see them for sure - Corrina

I have always been a HUGE fan. From camping out all night for tickets for their concerts at the Metro Centre and Citadel Hill, to flying to Toronto and then driving to London just to see them in concert a couple years ago. I cannot wait for this one!- Amanda

I can't wait for the show, to go hear all the "classics" will be awesome! I don't think it will matter that Kevin is not returning, he didn't add much anyway.... it's not like Nick or Brian not returning, now that would be mayjor.

I don't think Kevin not being there will be a big deal.

AJ wasn't there on the concert on the hill (he was injured, if I can remember).

It will be an amazing show! so excited to get tickets on saturday, or win them early on C100! :)

When i was little i was obsessed with the backstreet boys! but i was too little to go to either concert. i am SOOOO excited about them comming! but im not the biggest fan of their new music. i hope they play old classic songs that i love!!! :D

I love to take my son (with special needs). He has enjoyed their music forever. Right now he is totally into country music (ugh!!), but still enjoys the Backstreet Boys. I can handle going to a Backstreet Boys concert, but NOT a country music concert. Hope they sell out. I will try and win tickets from C100

Yay! I'm super excited to see the Backstreet Boys here in Halifax! It will be nice not to have to travel to Montreal or Toronto to see my favorite group! :)

i heard that they might be coming but has anything been confirmed yet? If they do, the show would be awesome!! Just because they're older doesn't take away from the songs they have already written and the great ones they continue to make. They just sing about new things now. Once a BSB fan ... ALWAYS a BSB fan!!!! I'll be there!!!

Like all of us, the Backstreet Boys are older and with them their music has matured too. I took my nieces to the hill concert what seems like a million years ago and they put on an awesome show..... I will see them again this time and I'm sure love them just as much!!

Finally, after 10 years the Boys have returned!!! I'm so excited for this concert it's beyond insane!! This is the best news ever!!! And playing in Moncton too!! Oh my world, it's bright and sunny right now in mine!!

It's finally nice to see a lot of big name artists finally visiting Halifax again, we are finally being remembered!!

Hey C100, are you going to have any BSB contests to celebrate their return and give us a chance to met our band?? :)

BACKSTREET'S BACK! ALRIGHT!!!!!!!

I am sooo excited for the Backstreet Boys to come!! I have been a fan forever it seems, and when I found out this morning I felt just like a teenager again! My friend and I even flew to Toronto to see their London, Ontario concert! We have been checking their website and cannot believe that they are actually coming back! I even joined their "fan club" this morning so that we could get early tickets! I am just hoping that they will be front row.. I do not want to settle for anything less then front row!! hahaha... Can you tell I am a little excited!? :D

I think they are too old, to be classified as "Boys" and the new song, is way too young for their age.

I'm disappointed that I can't see the show - I already have tickets for the Eagles in Moncton on the same day.....I LOVE the Backstreet Boys!!!!!!

I don't have anything different to say than anyone else here, I'm SO excited! I definitely acted like a little teeny bopper again. I'm working on keeping that under control! I'm glad they're hitting up just about every province, they owe it to their Canadian fans to finally visit us all. See you all there!!!

I am DYING to see my boys FINALLY! I have always been a die hard fan since the moment I heard them when I was ten years old. I've grown up with their music and have always loved them. I have NEVER been able to see them live because when they visited here I lived in New Brunswick. I thought that I would NEVER get the chance to see them, and when I heard that they were coming a couple of weeks ago I flipped back to 13-year-old mode and jumped around my house screaming. I need to get front row seats. My life will finally be complete! :D

If you're going to give away Backstreet Boys tickets, the contests should be Backstreet Boys related, not Rick James?

Like most of the 'hasbeens' the BSB should bow out of performing. Their music really is no longer relevant, current, or original. Sure they have the die hard fan base, but I will be surprised if they sell out.

They did some of the most popular dance songs of the 90's... But I can't see them dancing around the stage, or perfoming like they did when they were the Boys. I don't think I would be interested in them today...

I am 47 and my daughter is now 24.
We went to their first concert in Halifax. We plan on going to this upcoming concert too.
I think all the fans are grown up now and we might actually be able to hear the music this time.
As far as Kevin being gone, I don't think he had that big of a spot in the band.

i am extremely excited that the boys are coming back! i have been a devoted fan since i was 8 and i am now 21... i went to their concert on the hill but since i was only 11 at the time and went with my dad this one is gonna be a great experience! i actually camped out at the metro centre and got some front row seats for this concert... haha its a lifelong dream come true... i feel like im 12 all over again. i think its unfortuante that kevin is not with the boys for this tour but i think they will do great without him...
