Last night I went to watch Backstreet Boys at the Manchester Arena. Not going to lie, BSB were one of my favourite bands when I was younger and I was never able to see them live at the time. So needless to say when they announced a new tour, I jumped at the chance to go and the tickets were like gold dust.
All I can say is that after 26 years in the business, the boys have still got it. They've all got fantastic voices live which is a bit of a surprise for a boyband and they can't half dance too. They really know how to put on a good show, and the majority of the audience were up on their feet throughout the entire show (us included). They did a good mix of all of their classic tunes interspersed with some from the new album too. If I have to criticise anything, they could have upped the stage production. It was just them on a massive stage with a lot of flashing lights and videos of random things playing on a screen in the background. Whilst its impressive that they can hold the stage themselves, maybe a little more would've been good. Also, I was a bit sad that they didnt come out on stage dressed as monsters for Everybody... but still a very good show and a childhood dream come true 9/10
I'll leave you with a picture of me & my friend rocking our retro looking BSB tickets ?
