Bueno, será el 2001 el año en que finalmente llegan los Backstreet Boys a la Isla? Si lo que el promotor José Dueño dice es correcto, entonces el 19 y 20 de mayo el quinteto de chicos que más discos venden en el mundo realizará dos presentaciones en el Estadio Hiram Birthorn.

Todo surge luego de que durante la presentación del pasado sábado en la noche de Sting en el Bithorn, producida por Dueño, hubo varios anuncios en los intermedios que decían: "Pronto en Puerto Rico los Backstreet Boys."

Durante el intermedio de la presentación de Soraya, antes de que subiera a tarima Sting, nos encontramos con el promotor cerca de los kioskos de venta y le preguntamos a cerca de la presentación de los Backstreet Boys y nos dijo: "Será el 19 y 20 de mayo aquí en el Bithorn. Antes de que Sting salga a cantar voy a subir a la tarima y haré el anuncio oficial." Pero Dueño nunca salió a la tarima a realizar el anuncio.

Esto dejó una estela de dudas al respecto, ya que no es la primera vez que un promotor dice que presentará a los Backstree Boys en la Isla. Ya PRPC Concerts dijo hace más de un año que los chicos harían una presentación aquí para su disco "Millennium," que nunca se dio.

Veremos si ahora se da, máxime cuando el disco "Black and Blue" ya ha vendido cerca de 9 millones de copias en los Estados Unidos. Sería el tercer disco consecutivo del quinteto en sobrepasar las 10 millones de copias (Disco de Diamante) en los Estados Unidos.

Are the Backstreet Boys coming to Puerto Rico?

Well, will 2001 be the year in which the Backstreet Boys come to the Island? If what the promoter Jose Dueño says is correct, then on the 19 and 20 of May the quintet of boys who have sold more albums in the world than anybody else will make two presentations in the Hiram Birthorn Arena.

Everything arose during the presentation of last Saturday's Sting Concert in the Bithorn, produced by Dueño, there were several announcements in the intervals that said: " Soon in Puerto Rico the Backstreet Boys."

During the interval of the presentation of Soraya, before Sting sting came onstage, we were with the promoter near the merchandise sales desk and we asked to him about the presentation of the Backstreet Boys concert and he said to us: " It will be on the 19 and 20 of May in the Bithorn here. Before Sting leaves to sing I am going to go onstage and I will make the announcement official." But Dueño never left to the platform to make the announcement.

This left a wake of doubts, since news on the matter is not the first time that a promoter says that he will present/display the Backstreet Boys in the Island. PRPC Concerts already said more than a year ago that the boys would make a concert here for their album "Millennium," and that never occurred.

We will see now if one finally occurs, especially when the album "Black and Blue" already has sold near 9 million copies in the United States. It would be the third consecutive album of the quintet in exceeding the 10 million copies in the United States.
