A Backstreet Boys story

<< < (10/17) > >>

Carter-Orange:
I first started liking the Backstreet Boys during the Backstreet's Back era. At that time Kevin was my favorite Backstreet Boy because he was the mature, tall, dark haired and gorgeous one, lol. My favorite song used to be Everybody but now I love Incomplete and More Than That. Since becoming a fan, I have seen the guys on tour four times. My favorite tour was Unbreakable because I was front row, touched Nick's hand and had AJ's water thrown over me lol. The one song I wish they would perform in concert is Climbing The Walls and take out I'll Never Break Your Heart (as I'm not fussed on that song).

Nowadays, my favorite Backstreet Boy is Nick and Kevin because I'm glad Kevin came back and because Nick grew up and is hot (plus I love his voice and personality). I have to admit, at first I didn't think much of Howie but now he's really grown on me. I still don't give Brian much thought because I just don't have all that much interest in him or anything in common with him. If Nick were to leave the band, there is no way it could continue on as a foursome, but If I had to pick one of them to leave, I would choose Kevin because I already know they work well as a foursome without him, but I wouldn't want him to go again.

The one thing I love most about these boys is their genuine love for what they do. But if I could ask them to change one thing it would be come and tour in Wales, we are a country too!.

At the end of the day, we're all fans but the one thing that bugs me most about this fandom in general is the crazies. I think Howie is the most fan friendly where Nick (only because sometimes he's come across as uninterested on sound check videos I've seen) needs the most work. Regardless, I love these guys and will remain a fan forever unless they release crappy music and start treating the fans like crap too.

That sounds fair as well.

I think  if they did it by lottery/luck of the draw or hold some fun contests or something for just the plain old VIP, it would be best, so this way people who really want to go and can't afford these outrageous prices can be given a chance simply by showing up early or something. It's the sound check I am really interested in seeing anyway. I don't care if I do a meet and greet or anything like that. I mean, don't get me wrong, it would be lovely to do it, but I would happily settle for just listening to them talk and sing intimately especially if it was for free. Limit it to like only 50 people or something. Even though it's not a lot it gives at least 50 people a chance to have this experience who otherwise wouldn't be able to.

They can keep the GOLD and DIAMOND but then maybe lower those prices to what people used to pay for regular VIP and the next one up. By doing that, the experience would once again be more intimate because less people would be there and the people who have the money to pay for the experience wouldn't have to be rushed because there would be less people to have to get through.

RokofAges75:
I agree, just watching the soundcheck is the best part!  The meet and greet is so quick, it's hardly worth it unless it's your first time meeting them, but I like to do bronze just to see soundcheck.  I definitely wish they would lower the prices and limit the number they offer more than they do now.

mare:
Someone needs to tell them that. People who constantly @ the boys for every little thing need to include that in your @ing @can you follow me, @can you come to my country, @can you say hello I'm having a bad day. @lower your prices so we all can do fun things! @can you tell my dog you love him! LOL

RokofAges75:
LOL Good plan!  Just include the hashtag #PleaseLowerVIPprices after every spammy tweet you send them!
