Boy band ‘marriage’ rocks Manila in nostalgic concert

Lights dimmed for the third time and the crowd was not excited for another front act. Around 10,000 fans, some of them having lined up as early as 4 p.m. under unstable weather for the supposed-to-be 8 p.m. concert on Sunday, June 3, were anxious for the show they paid thousands of pesos for.

But when nine images flashed on-screen and nine shadows emerged at 9 p.m., the audience erupted with deafening cheer.

The 80′s and 90′s collided at SM MOA’s The Arena earlier this week as iconic boy bands from those two generations brought nostalgia onstage with old but familiar beats.

The Backstreet Boys and New Kids On The Block concert at Adelaide Entertainment Centre

BACKSTREET’S back all right, as were thousands of boy band fans who turned back the clock to reminisce about the good ol’ days at the Entertainment Centre on Monday night.

Two of the biggest pop groups of the 1990s – the Backstreet Boys and New Kids On The Block – may have been older and greyer (albeit in some cases, a lot more buff) but then so were most of us in the audience.

It meant the moves were a little slower. But it was made up for with enthusiasm, as the foursome and quintet known for their slick dance moves gave it their all to slide, jump, thrust and strut along the stage.

Kids, Boys unite for ultimate adolescent show

BACKSTREET’S back. All right?

It’s been tentatively announced that millennium-era boy band the Backstreet Boys, who visited Shanghai not long ago, are getting the call to come back to perform in June.

This time with their current touring mates, New Kids on the Block.

And touring mates isn’t exactly accurate either, as more than just sharing the same stage, they’ll be doing so concurrently, singing their respective greatest hits together. It’s the kind of spectacle that barely can be contained by its very own acronym, “N.K.O.T.B.S.B.”

Backstreet Boys, New Kids on the Block perform in Adelaide

FOR Backstreet Boys’ Howie Dorough, being 38 and in a boy band isn’t weird at all.

“When we started, a boy band was just a group of boys singing together,” he explains.

“And we still get called that, but you know what? We’ve learned to accept it. It’s great to be called anything these days and to still be going strong.”

Performing tonight in Adelaide, Howie says the band, including Brian Littrell, Nick Carter, AJ McLean and Dorough pictured below, couldn’t wait to return Down Under.

Boy bands Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block back with a bang

THEY may be older, hiding bald patches with hats and some physiques may not be quite what they once were, but Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block were back with bang last night.

In an unashamed feast for every teen of the Nineties, the boy bands unleashed a cavalcade of ballads, hip thrusts and fist pumps at Rod Laver Arena.

You could have been forgiven for walking in on a Chippendales show to begin with.

Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean, wife expecting

Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean and his wife Rochelle DeAnna Karidis announced that they are expecting their first child, People reports. The couple took a modern route of telling the world — they posted a video on YouTube to share the news.
