The Backstreet Boys: Concert Review and Ticket Information

March 22, 2005 -- BACKSTREET'S back.
Ten years since the boy band hit big and five since they went MIA, The Backstreet Boys played the first of a two-show engagement at tiny Irving Plaza last night.

For a band that at the height of its popularity was able to sell millions of albums and fill stadiums, this club gig was an unexpected way for them and their fans to mark their comeback bid.

The vocal quintet's original lineup of Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, Brian Littrell, A.J. McLean and Howie Dorough was intact at this nearly two hour gig. where the Boys blurred the lines between bright pop and bump 'n' grind ballads.

The BSB harmonies were crisp during a set centered on a greatest hits program that also included a few new tunes that were getting a road test for an upcoming album.

The guys looked good and sang well, especially when they were covering their strongest songs like "I'll Never Break Your Heart," "Show Me the Meaning Of Being Lonely" and of course "I Want It That Way."

What last night's concert illustrated was no matter how cheesy a band's reputation is, tight harmony never goes out of style. Clearly Backstreet is a band that has continued to work at its craft. More...
