Meeting the Backstreet Boys
THE STORY:
HOW WE MET THE BACKSTREET BOYS? Well here's the story, it's rather long, so just chill back and enjoy our story!!! A few years ago, back when I was a senior in high school. The Backstreet Boys were doing a concert. When they came on stage, the girls went crazy. They came out singing and then introduced themselves. I couldn't even decide who was the cutiest one, they all took my breathe away. I knew I had to meet them. I did get that chance later on in the day. I went to one of my teachers, who ran the school newspaper (which I was apart of) and told him how I wanted to meet them. He told me to get a picture w/ the group for the school newspaper. He also had it where I was behind stage doing their second show. It was great, I saw them practicing a Boyz II Men song. Then it was time for the show, the girls once again went crazy. They took the school by storm and left alot of girls wanting more, including me. They had to run out of school because every girl went after them. I thought they left but when I asked someone who was working for them, they told me they were right outside at the tour bus. So I went out in search of them, I found them signing autographs. I went in search of their manager because I still had to get a picture of them for the newspaper. I told her about it and she said no problem, just wait until they were ready to leave. I went around and got autographs and spoke to a few of them. They were the sweetest guys and cutiest I had ever seen and met. It was time they had to leave and before they did I got to get that picture I needed. We took the picture right in front of their tour bus. Nick looks so young, he's actually smaller than Brian. Anyway, they had to leave and get back on the road to go to another school. I was sad to see them go, but since that day they had a fan in me. Like a week later, I found out that they were doing a concert at the mall so I went. I took along my sisters, Brandy, Tracy, my mom, my niece Brittany, & my nephew Carmen. That's the concert when they fell in love with Brittany. At the time, Brittany was probably their youngest fan. Kevin took her on stage and danced with her. We had a blast that afternoon. Before we knew it, they had to get on a plane to Germany. They left and Brittany stood there crying because her new friends left her. We saw them a year later at a nightclub. It was great. We (my two sisters, my brother & me) were waiting in the club when their manager came out, we got her attention and then she realized it was us. She took us back onto the tour bus to see the guys. They were just sitting around waiting for their time to go on. We chatted for a few minutes and then we left so they could get ready. They did their show and when they were done they signed some autographs. Brian and Kevin went back to the tour bus before they went they asked if we wanted to come along so we did. Howie, A.J. and Nick stayed and danced a little. When we were on the tourbus we chatted a little more with Brian (who is the most sweetiest guy). Before we knew it the guys had to leave and move on to the next city. We said our goodbyes and saw them leave. We still kept in touch with each other through letters, telephone calls and I even got a birthday video from BSB on my 17th birthday!!! Which is the sweetiest tape and present I could ever get!!! The next time we would see them is two years later in 1997, and guess what they remembered us too!! That was the first time I got to see the guys after the whole world made them number one and it was great. We went back to the meet and greet where we saw the guys. They changed alittle, they got cutier. Their personalities were the same since the very first time I met them. We chatted and caught up on some things. I always hated it when we said goodbye. Six months later, we went to another concert, but the night before the concert my two sisters, my friend and I bumped into AJ and Howie at a local nightclub. AJ was great, he stayed and chatted with us about lots of things. We went to the concert and gave them the gifts we got them. We waited in line for half of the day but it was worth it. We got to see the guys do an interview and sign autographs. That night the concert rocked once again, the only thing that bothered me was all the pushing that the girls were doing, to get closer to the guys. All the guys looked great and Brian looked very cute, he's my (Angel's & my sister's Brandy) favorite one. I love his face expressions when he is talking to you. Kevin was wonderful and kind, he is very very cute in person. Pictures don't do justice for what he really looks like. Kevin is Brittany's favorite!! AJ was such a sweetie!! We can't begin to explain what these three guys do for us!!! They are all sweethearts! Don't get me wrong Nick (who is Michele's favorite) is a great guy too. We remember when he was smaller than Brian and now we can't believe how he grew up these past few years. What can we say about Howie, he's just a great guy? The band is great! The two women behind the BSB, who are the sweetest in the world, Donna & Denise. The saying go behind every great man you could find a great woman. You two are the greatest, you have always welcomed us with open arms!!! Thanks a bunch!!! All my encounters with the Backstreet Boys are memories I'll always keep close to the heart. I (Angel) always knew since the first time I met them, that one day they will become famous. Now here they are five of the most wanted men alive!!! We are more than fans we are Friends of theirs. We believed in them since the very beginning and we still believe.
