Man What's up? Howie:Hey how's everybody out there? Stick: Hey welcome to Atlanta. Howie:Well thank you Hotlanta. I'm glad to be here very glad to be here can't wait to come back again on tour Stick: Yea again no doubt when's that gonna get kicked off? Howie:We're actually kicking off our next tour our first date is February 11 and actually I think it's in Pennsylvania actually can't wait to get back down here down south a little bit Stick: This is your first time at The Beat right? Howie:Yea sure is I want to say thank you to all your support actually as I was coming in to town yesterday from the airport I heard your big advertisement for our concert and everything. I wanna say thanks for all the support and much props to you guy. Congratulations on the new radio station here and I wish you guys the best of luck on everything Stick: In town for the Super Bow uh? Howie:Yeah oh yeah definitely in town here with my brother. What an awesome game it was and like I just decided to stick around for an extra day here. Heard that you were kicking off your first show here so I wanted to come down and give you lots of support Stick: I appreciate it definitely and as I am a big Backstreet Boys supporter as you already know right? Howie:Why thank you, thank you very much. We appreciate all your support here Stick: Millennium Tour I, I've seen it a couple of times I saw it up in New York, I saw it there and a couple different places. Great show, great choreoghraphy,everything is excellent Howie:Thank you, thank you were very proud of this show its been a you know something we started back in last year of April and had a lot of rehearsals for it about a months worth and then took the tour over to Europe first kind of tweaked(i guess) out all the little ends and outs of it and brought it back home to America and now we're actually on our second leg so very excited about this last leg here we'll probably retire this tour after this and come up with a whole new tour in summer time Stick: Good deal. Next album any, any ideas? Howie:Yea actually I just did some reproduction on some of the stuff for a potentials for the next album a couple of tracks that I wrote with some different producers out in LA um not too long ago and um after this tour finishes here we're gonna all sit down and kind of like start writing for the next album possibly collaborate together as well as with other producers and writers and hopefully probably you'll see a single out maybe like around October. I think the album's probably gonna be down by the end of August so probably October will be the first single Stick: Well we all know the ladies are waiting for it so you guys hurry up in that studio you know what I'm saying? Howie:Well thank you we can't wait to put out a new album. I mean once we go on tour sometimes singing the same song every night we're just constantly trying to flip it up a little bit so everytime we get a new album were very excited to go back on tour again cause it's all new material Stick: Now I know like some artists get upset about singing the same song over and over again their hits or whatever however you might put it. Do you guys like dislike that do you? Howie:Well it's actually it's kind of funny because we've only had 2 albums and I look back at the legends like Micheal and the Eagles and Aerosmith who you know I go to their concerts and their still singing songs from like their first album you know 15 albums ago and it's weird for us just only having 2 albums and after doing you know the same show every night for you know 3 or 4 months it does get a little bit you know OK we try to spice it up a little bit we'll maybe once in a while we'll do a little something different like a musical breakdown or somebody might fall on stage it just adds a little excitement to the whole song but we're always trying to keep it fresh you know everytime we go to theres you know the new people there so that always you know helps us keep the whole show fresh and you know the vibe of each song kind of a new again. Stick: Most embarrassing moment on stage you gotta have one. Howie: Ugh, I have too many of 'em. I think ugh probabaly I'd say the most embarrasing onewas when I was in Europe one time in Germany and it was on a song called "Get Down" we used to have this little cat walk runway that we had on the a out in front of the stage and AJ was hyping the crown and everything and me and Nicky decided to get back behind him and hype the crown as well and Nicky didn't know that I was right behind him and he swung his arm out and next thing you know I flew off the stage Stick:(laughs) Howie:and luckily there was a security guard that a caught me but it was like i was just praying for a little pillow to be there but I've had... Stick:(interups) He wasn't as soft as a pillow Howie:Yea,no no but it was, it was probably a little bit better though it was a little bit closer to the to where i was then probably the pillow on the floor so it's defiantly memories, we have lots of them on this tour. Stick: Good deal Howie thanx again for stopping by in Hotlanta to my show I appreciate the a all your support Beat only music The Backstreet Boys all the time! Howie:Well,thank you, Thank you all to everybody out there in Atlanta can't wait to see you guys and a show all your support with us with 95.5 the BEAT!
