I’ll admit that growing up I was like most 13 year old girls. I was boy band obsessed and I had my bedroom walls, cd collections, and band paraphernalia to prove it. Honestly though, I thought my fanatical boy band obsessing tendencies had dissipated with age and evolving music trends. Unfortunately, as I found out on Saturday, those feelings had simply been in intense hibernation. When we were first told we would be seeing the Backstreet Boys I was pumped, but when I realized there was a slight chance that we would meet them, the “crazy” in me quickly surfaced. Last week flew by quickly and by the end of the week I was a full on Backstreet Boys fan again.

Saturday was absolutely incredible Marylee, my roommate and I arrived several hours before the show. After finding our amazing seats ( Eddie totally hooked us up, we were 6 or 7 rows from the stage) we quickly spotted Matt and were taken backstage and met up with Eddie. Eddie introduced us to several BSB band and group members, who were all cool as shit. I’m not going to lie, I had a hard time keeping my cool, I kept reminding myself that we were with our client and that it was necessary to balance my lunatic fan antics with my desire to remain calm and professional. I think I did o.k. until I asked Eddie if we could get a pic, I felt like a total idiot, but I think I would have regretted it if I hadn’t. Regardless of the fact that this is an unflattering photo and that I have a dorkie love struck smile on my face, this is easily my favorite picture of all time.

The concert kicked ass. The Backstreet Boys put on an amazing show, it was filled with solo performances from each of the guys and a mix of material from their newest album “Unbreakable” and their greatest hits. I’m still on this crazy high from the show. Most importantly we got some pretty decent pics to document the entire evening! Thanks for everything Eddie/BKWLD!!!!
