Hey everyone! Well I was one of the lucky ones to go to last night's concert in Milwaukee. I was one of the hundreds that were on the floor. Before the concert I thought I had like 27th row because I thought the first three sections went up to z, but I was wrong! I took my cousin and when we got there I found out we had 18th row!!!
Now to tell you more about the concert.
Krystal came out right on time at 7:30 and she started with My Religion, then she sang Love is a Beautiful Thing. Thats when I left to go on the second floor. Then she sang supergirl. After that song I was some where over by section 206 and then she anounced that she was signing autographs in section 210. Thats when I started to run, I ended up 12th person in line. Krystal still had to sing one more song and she dedicated it to A.J. The song was ...or someone else will. I beleive if I remebered correctly. Yes I did get a picture of Krystal Harris up close and her autograph too!
Then sisqo came out he was really excited and hyper. He sang his hit singles the Thong Song and Incomplete. Then he sang a song from his new album called Dance something or other and then he sand another song from his new album but I forgot what it was called. The only thing I didn't like about his performance is that he just had to play emniem when they were changing for clothes.
The lights turned out exactly at 9:00 We see earth being destroyed by these astroids that flew through the screen added by special effects. Then the Backstreet Boys come out everyone was screaming their heads off! They came on with everyone and then switched to larger than life. Of course they would do songs written for the fans first! Then they sang Not for me! Each one of the guys came out and spoke, first it was Brian he wanted to thank everyone for the overflowing support the Backstreet Boys got. Then he said with out AJ we wouldn't have felt like the Backstreet Boys. Then he went down to change and AJ came up! I had to plug my ears the screams were soooo loud! He started and said I am trying not to cry, of corse he did choke up a little! He wanted to thank everyone for all their support and understanding of what he was going through and he ended it with today I am 51 days sober! Then Nick came, then howie, and then Kevin. They sand a couple of more songs and then 2050 came on the screen that was sooooo funny. The best part was when they had to find a replacement for howie because he had a hip replacement. They said that Joey Fatone had tried out and I though that was super funny because my cousin was an nsync fan. I tried to convert her to backstreet boys lol! Anyway I was right by the bridge when it came down and I got a ton of really good pictures. If you guys want to see those pictures go to my site at http://crowd.to/Celebrity. The night was the best night of my life! Well I Gotta go! Talk to ya guys later! E-mail me if you have any questions! Buhbye
Love ya,

August 24 Milwaukee concert

Hi Everyone!! I went to the Bsb concert in Milwaukee and it was so awesome!! Oh My Gosh, I don’t know where to start. I don’t really remember too much which makes me really mad, I think I was so excited my mind was going nuts. But my friend and I got there and found our seats of course I was flipping out because we were row 6 (the closest I have ever had!!!) I originally had the left side of the floor seats, where nick is usually, but then this lady came up to me and asked if I was a brian fan (she must have seen my shirt and poster) i said yes and she asked us if we wanted to switch seats with her to the other side of the floor, because she was a nick fan and we were on nicks side. Well it was a really good switch we were still row 6, but a little closer to the bridge and we could see a little better so I was excited. Then the concert started, Krystal came out, and I thought she sounded good, and then she told everyone that she was signing autographs so I started to go to the section she was signing them at. The line wasn’t that long when I got there, so I got a picture with her and her autograph then I was running back to my section, the line was really long then. So if you want Krystals autograph I suggest going up there as soon as she says what section she will be in. I missed like all of sisqo, except for the thong song and one other. Then there was a wait, and then oh my god, bsb were going to be coming out. I was freaking out!!! The light went off and they came out!! They all looked sooooooo good, I was trying franticly for one of them to wave to me but it didn’t work. Brian looked so good, he is so cute!!!! They all came out and gave their thanks and love, aj came out to thank all us fans, and he said that today (Friday) was his 51st day sober, so all the fans screamed really loud again for him. He looked good too. Oh, and I think that nicks ears are pierced, either I have never noticed them before, or he just got them pierced. And also howie got his hair cut, it is really short! Well not to short, but it is not long anymore. Kevin had his hair braided, it is getting really long! It was so loud in the arena at first I could barley hear their singing, but oh well I could see them really well, so that was cool!!!!! And the sound got better. Then I think it was during I want it that way, or whatever song, (I brought some stuffed animals to throw on stage, and I bought one yellow furry thing to throw to Aj) so I decided I would throw it because they were just kinda walking around and doing whatever, and Aj was right in front of me, so I threw it and I made it on to the stage, and Aj picked it up and was like playing with it. I was freaking out and everyone around me was patting me on the back and saying nice throw, and stuff, I felt really good about my self!! He had it with him for the whole song, so I was hyped, then I thought he would throw it back into the audience or something, but he threw it to his drummer and the drummer put it on his drum set, and it was there for the whole concert, I was so happy!!!!!!!!!! They did a ton of pelvic thrust thing, (Oh My Gosh, that made me melt!!!) I got a picture when aj was in this pose like holding his crotch or something, I don’t know! Since I was in 6th row I could see all their facial expressions so well!!! They all seemed really happy and excited, and they all goofed around! Which was so cute!!!!!! It was just so awesome!! They sounded really good!! And I am so glad I got to see them, I paid $250 for my ticket and it was definitely worth it! I don’t know if I have a fav song from last night, because I thought they all were awesome! I couldn’t settle down when I got back from the concert, I felt like I had so much adrenaline running!!! It was I think the best concert I have been to!!!!
Milwaukee BSB concert

The Milwaukee BSB concert was to say the least, phenomenal (if I even spelt that right, lol!) Their dance moves were perfectly syncronized and singing was beautiful. The second stage was a great idea, and really gave the fans a chance to be closer to the boys. AJ was very good, you could not tell that he was in rehab. THough there wasn't as much pyro as Millenium, this was still good. And Krystal gave the fans a chance to meet and get autographs (which I did) so all in all it was a great concert, but not as fancy and glitsy as the last.

I thought last night's concert in Milwaukee totally rocked! I already went to the Black and Blue tour in Chicago, but I thought they were much better yesterday. They all had so much energy and wanted to repay us for standing by AJ through his long and hard struggle. I really appreciated how hard they worked just to make us happy. They all looked happy again. They were much more energized. AJ looked a lot better! They totally rocked! I wish that I was still there watching them sing. I hoped that they had fun entertaining their millions of fans.
Milwaukee Concert- 08/24/01

WOW!! Thats the only word that comes to mind right now. Last night, I saw the Backstreet Boys perform at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI. This show was the best I have ever seen. We mananged to get floor seats. Section 6, row PPP, seats 9-12. We got there and looked up, there was the ramp, right above our heads. Then we look back and see the mini stage, only 3 rows ahead of us. I started crying realizing how close they actually were to us. The concert started about 15 minutes after we got there, and Krystal came out. She was amazing and got the crowd pumped for the BSB!! Then Sisqo was next. He was pretty good, although I enjoyed Krystal better. Soon after the lights went down and screams filled the air. The meteor picture began to show on the jumbotron and pyro went off left and right. Steam came from the floor and five figures emerged from the stage. My scream got louder as they stood on the platforms. They came down and began singing Everyone, Larger Than Life following it. The whole concert was different, with a new stage set up, new costumes, and a new song order. I wont give away too much, but I have to tell you about the highlight of my evening. When they came back to the mini stage, they were about 10 feet away. The started singing SMTM and my best friend Kim held up a Howie I love U sign. He saw it and smiled at her and pointed to it. She started to freak. Then Brian was in the middle and we got his attention and waved. he smiled and waved back. Howie looked at us again and waved. And then AJ waved at us. Me and Kim turned to each other and freaked out. Howie tapped AJ on the shoulder and they looked at us and laughed. We REALLY started freaking. Then Nick came on my side and I held up my sign that said Nick C. I love U. he looked me straight in the eye and at the poster. Then the ramp came down and they got on it. Each guy leaned over our side, and we were about 2 feet awat from them since we stood on our chairs. Kim held up her Happy Birthday Howie sign and he winked and pointed. Then Howie blew kisses at us. Then Nick leaned over by me, looked at my poster, then stood there and looked me straight in the eye. After they had left me and Kim broke down crying, knowing this was one of our dreams come true. The rest of the concert was amazing, and if you are going to see it, you'll have the best time of your life. Oh BTW AJ looks SOOOOOO Much better and healthier. He was so funny and definetly happier. He also told us he was trying so hard not to cry since we showed him so much love. Well thst it from me, if you want more details, feel free to email me!Thanks guys! KTBSPA 4EVA!!!!!

Hi guys!
I went to the concert on August 24th and lets just say that it was the best concert I ever been too. It was the first show that AJ was back and he was all happy and showing his cute butt off. I went to the Feb 13 show in Chicago but August 24th concert topped the first leg of the tour. Nick did have his ears pierced. When they went over the bridge Nick looked in my section and waved to me. He also waved to me at the Chicago one. This was my second BSB concert this yr. My first BSB concert was the Chicago one. I don't want to give to much away cause some people still have to go. Let's just say AJ's back alright and refressed. AJ looked sexy as usual and same with the other guys. I can't wait to see them on September 22nd show in Chicago.

WOW!!! I went to the first show with them back and let me tell you its better than ever!! AJ is so much more into it now and had ALOT more energy...they all looked soo happy to be back on that stage and seeing all the support they got! AJ stated on the 24th that he was 51 days sober and everyone went nuts! He was doing pelvic thrusts all over LOL! They were all really hyper lastnight though to it was a pretty funny show....nick was shaking his bootay all over and Kevin was really getting into the music...he said he guys I have a unreleased track that I wrote myself wanna here it and of course we all screamed so they started playing it and everyone was getting into because it was a really upbeat song then he goes hah I was kidding LOL! But AJ thanks everyone for their support and love...he looked like he wanted to cry when he came out to welcome all of us and right when the show was ending no tears ever fell though. When Brian came out he was the first one that got to welcome us and he was all excitied about that LOL! He said "haha I get to be the first one to say HIIII" and he was all happy about it was so cute! MTV was there recording and John Norris did talk to the band Backstage so watch for that on MTV sometime this coming week or on the MTV news breifs.

Hey Guys!!!
The concert last night was awesome, although I was very disappointed that they didn't sell out. They had a lot of empty seats. We saw John Norris from a distance interviewing people for MTV news. Well, Howie cut all of his hair off!! He no longer has a pony tail, it looks like the old days from the "Everybody" video. Aj's sporting red hair Kevin has corn rows again, and Nick has both ears pierced. Brian looked the same. They all looked refreshed and well rested. They changed the order of a few songs and even sang one I wasn't familiar with after "All I Have To Give." They had been in town since Wednesday because Howie said he celebrated his birthday here. Sisqo was really aweful and sounded like he had been thrown in last minute. Brian had asked us if we wanted a new album but he didn't say much when we all screamed yes. I don't really want to give away everything incase anyone is going, but they are back!!!!
Backstreet Boys - 1st show in Milwaukee
Date: Aug 25, 2001

Alright guys, I am on cloud 9, the concert ended about an hours ago and it was the best 2
hours of my life..here is a summary of the concert!:
Krystal and then Shaggy performed...they were good, specially Krystal, but I figure ya'll
are more interested in the BSB so we'll get to them. I had pretty good seats and could see
all the boys clearly - they looked fine as ever!
Aj - That boy is back and is as good as ever!!! He put some meat on his bones and got
another tattoo, yes another one but I couldn't really tell what it was. I know it's on the
inside of his lower arm. For those of you wondering, he hasn't changed a bit, he still does
all the wild 'gyrations' he always did, and he's still very good at em! He thanked the
audience numerous times for giving the boys and him support and 'Backstreets Back!'
The other boys haven't really changed besides the fact that Howie got his hair cut
MAJORLY. It is curly and short...kinda hard to explain but if somebody gets pics in here,
you will be able to tell. Kevin had his cornrows and still knows how to shake his thang!
Nick looks pretty much the same but it does seem like he is slimming out (hey I don't care,
he loox good no matter what!). And Brian - what can you say about him??? He just looks
good no matter what...He's my fav!
I once heard that the boys didn't know how to dance, well screw whoever said that,
those boys are gooood! Especially in Get Another Boyfriend...their energy in that song
was unbelievable. I haven't been to a Black and Blue show besides this one so I don't
really know all the songs were arranged, but it was different from the CBS special in Los
Angeles. The boys sang How Did I Fall on the circle in the middle of the audience, then
went into time unlike the LA show. A couple other things were different too.
About cameras in concerts, I got mine in no problem. A person took my ticket and I
walked right in, no security or nothing. Honestly I could have taken in a video camera and
gotten away with it w/ no prob. I'm kinda wishin I did now. BTW - those boys (specially
Nick) put their faces in the big screen cameras so close ~ it makes for great pics!
The highlight of the night for me was when we were walking out of the Bradley Center
and we realized that we got out on the wrong side. I was pissed at first cuz I didn't want
my posters getting wet. Well we kept walking and all of a sudden there was loud
screaming. I looked up and there was a tour bus down the road a bit headed for us. I ran
to a part of the sidewalk/road where nobody was and got myself ready to see what was in
it. As it got closer I realized that it was Brian...he was sitting in the front inbetween his
bodyguard and driver. There was only one other person next to me within 10 feet when
the bus came through and me and her were waving frantically and calling out his name. He
looked straight at us, smiled, and waved.! I couldn't believe it cuz all during the show all I
wanted him to do was wave at my section and now here he was waving directly at me and
another girl. He had on a backwards white hat and a blue sweatshirt, a Kentucky one I
think.
Well I could write tons more about the concert but it's late and my fingers hurt. If
anybody wants to know ANYTHING else, email me at v_ball_chic99@hotmail.com or
message me, I would be glad to answer any questions!!!!

Milwaukee WI Concert

I was at the Milwaukee show and all i can say is WOW!!!!! It's the greatest show I've ever been to! I've been to the Millennium tour back in 99 along with the Black and Blue tour on Feb. 12 in Chicago. This show was better than them both! The guys were full of energy and happy to be back. They changed the show around a little bit but keeping the same intro. They started off with everyone and went into larger than life. Then Brian came out by himself to talk to the fans and AJ was next. When he came out he said "I promised myself I wouldn't cry." The fans went crazy when he came out, myself included because I love that man :), he said his thank yous of our support and also said that if he could hug each and every one of us, he would. the rest of the guys came out one by one also to speek, Nick laughing at Howie's new hair cut. Yes ladies and gentlemen, the man just cut his hair! It's pretty short! After that they all went back on stage singing What Makes You Different (Makes You Beautiful) along with pieces of I'll Never Break Your Heart and older songs like that. There is a mini stage that is across the arena that they go on in the middle of the show. I was very VERY close to that one. They sang about two slow songs on that and headed back over to the stage on a bridge that had been lowered from the ceiling, and sang a few faster songs. For all of you who are wondering how AJ's performance was all I have to say is, other than the floor hump that I've seen out of him in 98, I haven't really seen anything like it! Pelvic thrusts, the whole nine yards except for the floor hump of course. For the last few songs he took off his shirt and the crowds went nuts again! Including me. There's so much more to tell but if you're going to a concert I'd rather leave it as a surprise because some of it is pretty funny. And if you are going, you're in for a great show!!

Hey people what's up?????????
Well lets see I live in milwaukee,wi and I went to the concert at the bradley center on august 24th
2001. It was the first concert that aj was back on the road with the guys and I must say he looked
good and heathy too. He was still his crazy self but he was somewhat different. He mentioned when he
thanked all the fans for their support and concern that he was 51 days solber. This was the best
concert I have ever been to. Let me just say that aj is better than ever and that he will be much
better because of the support of the fans. When he started to talk and thank the fans me and my
best friend sarah started to cry. He cried as well even if he won't admit it. Nick looked fine as
hell as always. They came out on this round thing to sing how did I fall in love with you and nick
was 10 to 15 feet away from me. He looked right at me waved and pointed to me. Then I blew him two
kisses. Well if you are reading this and going to see the concert I do not want to give to much away
because I do not want to ruin it for you. But I will say this: if you bought tickets and are going
then it will be well worth the money and the fun. Hey you get to spend the night with five hot
guys and listen to their sexy voices. You can not beat that now can you? Well thanks for listening
and talk to you soon.
Love kisses and glitter,
Tammy (nick's chica)
