Hey, I went to the Backstreet Boys 2nd show in Toronto and let me say it was so amazing. First of all my friends and I were afraid that the boys would cancel due to the New York tragidy. It was truly a horrible thing and to say the least, they lost a part of the Backstreet family on one of the planes. But the boys stood strong to show there fans that life does go on and they brought love in hope into so many peoples lives just for a couple of hours and made us forget about everything that was going on in the world around us!!
I don't think it mattered where u sat. Like everyone says "Every seat in the ACC is a good one!!" The boys were amazing and looking as hot as ever. I must say that this part of the Black and Blue Tour was way better than the last!! Krystal was amazing, she has amazing talent. Everyone says that Sisqo is bad but I thought he was pretty good and man he is a good dancer. The Drangon rules~!
The boys came on about a half hour after sisqo and they put on a great show. Nick looked so HOT like usual, Howies hair look so much better, Brian well Brian never changes he is always cute, A.j amazed me, he looked so much better and happier than ever I truly am proud of him!! 71 days sober he said to the crowed on thursday. Well Kevin needs a hair cut but we still love him!! Being like aways the boys pulled quite a few stunts to make us laugh. They sanging and danced thier hearts!! The only serious part was when Brian was talking to the crowed about what happened in the U. S everyone was silent and a bit taken but he put our minds at ease by asking ok who has got the Black and Blue cd?? And from the on in the show was even better!! If u have a show in the near or far future the boys never disapoint! I love u Nick!!
P.S and to all the Family and friends who lost loved one in New York. God bless and let all our wished be with u in your time of need!

Wow!
Omg, hey ppl! This is my first submission so if it sucks, or if it's really short or really, long I appologize.
I went to the BSB Concert Sept 13, 2001, and omg! It totally kicked ass! Krystle was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, I don't know if her album if out here in Canada yet, she told us that it was out, but me, being stupid, didn't pay much attention.
Our seats were good too, we were almost above the stage and had a good veiw, excpet each time the pyrotechnics would go off, we'd inhale them, but it was ok, coz I screamed so hard there that I have larengitus.
I didn't cry which was good, I told myself that I wound't and for once in my life, that was a promise that I kept.
The crowd screamed all might which was good, but the only time we stopped was when Brian was up onstage talking about what happened in New York. You could litterally actually hear nothing.
They came out @ about 8:30 and opened w/ Everyone, then Everybody. They didn't have as many costume changes, i thought they'd have more, but they didn't.
The stuff on screen whern they were changing was hysterical, especally when they were old.It was funny when the interview person interviewing them, saying, 'This is Nick, Howie" and then when they got to kevin, it was funny. Kevin isn't my favourte, Nick is:-) But I guess coz Kevin is old, he had gray hair and didn;t look much different.
They didn't do anything too sexual, like, I didn't see that many pelvic thrust, maybe 2(form NICK!) I was dissapointed that there wasn't more, but maybe they didn't out of respect or something. I don't know. Nick didn't touch his crotch either, which bugged me, coz I really wanted to see that!I read about it all the time in the reviews, and no, didn't happen, not at my show.
Oh well. Shining starwas awesome! They have some new costumes, Shining Star is one of them,I'd submit my piccture, but they didn't really turn out.
They ended with "Drowning" and it was so good! I still have my $10 Glowstick that I bought, even though I hurt myself. See, like all the other ppl that went, I was swingning around my glowstick uncontrolably,when "bam!", it wacked me in the head.Those thngs are sharp, especially the plastic on the head of it, it cut open my head above my left eyebow.
A BSB Scar.
What a momentum.
Eitehr way, my friend ended up wacking her self w/ the glowstcik too. Now she has a fat lip.
Either way, go to a BSB Concert, it is totlly worth it:-)
P.S. Sorry if this sucked.

Wow!! I hope this review will put some smiles on people's faces because that's why the bsb decided to play!
Krstal started the show and she asked to sing happy birthday to her tour manager. Sisqo was ok, he is a very good dancer.
Right before the bsb came out, the unthinkable happens; a huge man comes 2 rows in front of me, I had 14th row! I had to keep moving around him. The bsb came on about 8:20ish, the crowd was screaming so loud it was hard to hear them. Everyone already knows the order of songs and the big screen parts so i'll skip to the details. Brian told us about the crew member they lost. He asked us if we wanted a new cd, he said so did he. He said after the tour they are going back into the studio, I was so happy to hear this from him. Aj came out and said he was 71 days sober, you go boy! He wanted to smooch all of us but he couldn't because he had a cold and didn't want to get us sick. His hair is brown again and short.
During the wardobe box part, nick and howie took off their belts and swung them around. Nick jumped in the box, kev was holding the lid shut and nick was peeking out, very cute. Brian came out of the box 1/2 dressed and pulled Aj in the box.
During Time, Brian's the only to wave to us. Aj put on a pink wig. After everything that has happened in the world "The Answer To Our Life" has a new meaning.
Aj told us they had time for 2 more songs, that's how i knew they were gonna sing "Drowning". He told us we kicked some, then he kept showing us his butt. They sang "Drowning" after SOMH, the song is awesome. All 5 of them get to sing a lead. Nick said it's the next single. I can't wait to hear it on the radio.
This night is just what I needed, it helped me start to deal with the tradgic reality of this situation. I love the BSB and can't wait to see them again!!!Thanks for a great show!

I was at the show last night in Toronto and I have one word to say about it "breath-taking". It was honestly the best experience of my life and it made me realize just how much I love them all!!!!! They sang like angels and danced amaizingly. They each made me laugh with their silliness and cry just with their presence. They are my true heros now and always. For almost 9yrs they have been my rock and last night just proved to me what 5 wonderful guys they really are!!!!!
Love you guys forever: Erika xoxoxoxoxoxo

BACKSTREET'S BACK ALRIGHT!
Although I had already attended the February concert at the Skydome, this one was even better (if that's possible).
The Boys did touch on the tragic events of the last day and we had a moment of silence for the crew member that they lost.
Brian thanked Canada for their generosity and in particular Pearson Airport for allowing all the diverted flights to land here.
And once again the Boys showed us the true shape of their hearts by donating $1 from all tickets sales yesterday to the Red Cross Relief fund - that's why we love em so much.
As for the show itself - AMAZING! A.J. looks and sounds great (70 days sober)as did the rest of the boys. They sang their new song "Drowning" - what a beautiful song!
Fun time had by all!!!! I am very proud to say that I continue to be a Backstreet Boy fan and will for many years to come! :) :)

I just came back from the BSB concert at the Air Canada Centre. It was an awesome concert and I was thrilled to have attended. I was particularly moved by AJ's comments about how important the fans were and how much he appreciated his support. However, I came to the painful realization today that these were merely words. Tonight my friend and I and 4 other girls sat for 4 hours in the cold, rainy parking lot of the Air Canada Centre on a bench across from AJ's bus. The driver of a car that shuttled the boys from the venue to the hotel told us that AJ was staying on the bus recording a song. We were all there hoping for an autograph from Aj, but would have been satisfied with a wave or smile. Aj did not greet us kindly however, but stared at us out the window and when someone finally said something he slammed the window shut. One of the girls that I met while waiting out there was in tears as AJ is her favorite. If he is so tired of the business, he should quit. We supported him through all his problems, buy all his albums and love him and he can't even wave...I have tickets for the concert on Friday and when AJ goes on and on about how important the fans are, I will remember tonight that i spent cold and wet hoping for something that never came...for AJ to show his gratitude to us, the fans.
