Honestly the NKOTBSB tour was fun but not something I ever want back. That said, even though I love having Kevin back I do think Nick grew a lot as an artist during that time so, in a way it's good those albums happened without him. Not to mention some real gems came about then like Downpour, Undone, This Is Us (the song), Unmistakable, Everything But Mine...not to mention unreleased songs like On Without You and Trouble. I also wonder if the Boys would've broken down that wall between the fans without Kevin there. Like that's when VIPs started, that's when the cruises came. Who knows?

Yeah, it's weird because although the group never felt quite whole without Kevin, that era was one of the best times to be a fan because they became so much more accessible than they had been before.  I'm not sure that had anything to do with Kevin leaving; I think it was more just the result of boybands being "out" and them not being as popular as before, which allowed them do play smaller venues and offer VIP packages and soundcheck parties and cruises and all that fun stuff that would have been difficult to do in 1998-2000 because of how crazy it would have become.  It was so much easier to get good seats and meet them for a fraction of what VIP costs now.  I think the IAWLT era was the best of both worlds in that respect - Kevin came back, and they were still accessible (even more so because there was no barrier for photos!).

I picked the wrong time to be student teaching and also slightly distanced, haha. Oh well, some day.

Do people still do this? I can't think of the last time I saw a sign or chair standing.

That's the best thing to do with your writing, trick people into getting far enough into it so that whatever weird thing you planned doesn't matter. ;)

Honestly, I have no idea. It’s been a long time since I’ve been to a concert but the last one I went too yes, they did all those things. I think the last time I saw them Eva was just born so it’s been a minute lol

Preferably a cappella. No background dancers, no special effects, no opening acts or costume changes or choreography (maybe just the famous ones like Everybody) and no collaborations with other groups. Just them and a small band backing them up.

My favorite concerts are the kind where I don’t feel the need to murder people who hold up signs and stand on their chairs screaming at the top of their lungs when I’m just trying to enjoy the music. Lol

I agree with all of this except the choreography.  I love when they dance!  But definitely no backup dancers, just the boys.
