Backstreet Boys
In The Millennium Tour
BMO Harris Bradley Center
November 4, 1999
Age 16
Hot on the heels of
seeing *NSYNC I was on to the next boy band, Backstreet Boys! Again, as a result of my very sheltered
childhood, I had very little idea who the Backstreet Boys where. My friends in high school had started to
teach me about them and *NSYNC, but I was always a little bit more familiar
with *NSYNC then BSB. My
parents treated me, my friends Kelly and Cathy, and possibly my brother (not
100% on that one) to this concert. It
was the first concert I had seen “in the round” where the stage sat in the
middle of the arena and could be seen from all angles. Our seats where amazing, almost center of the
circle and just a few rows up. It was
the closest I had been to such a high quality production and the choreography was so
impressive. Kelly, Cathy, and I were
cheerleaders at the time and we had worn our high school cheer coats to the
show, which I remember elicited some nasty remarks from another group at the
arena. It
was one of the earliest memories I have of total strangers hurling insults at me just because of something I wore. Besides those few comments
though, things settled down once the show started and boy was the show was great! BSB made use of the entire
stage so you weren’t left feeling you were ever on the wrong side of the
circle. They had a ton of great dancers and even though Kevin had injured his arm or shoulder beforehand (his arm was in a sling), he still performed at the top of his game. Like *NSYNC, BSB also had a portion of the show were they flew into the arena. I'm not sure when this fad became popular, flying into the audience, but I still see it at shows today and it's awesome every time. That night was such a great time and still I
remember being so excited on the car ride home with my friends and talking non-stop about it.

Final bow and goodnight!
