The Backstreet Boys Concert in Tampa FL (December 30,1998)











Here's my concert experience at The Backstreet Boys Concert in Tampa! I traveled all the way to Florida from North Carolina to see my sweetie boys! Well, I arrived at the Tampa Ice House at 4:30pm and the concert started at 8:00pm. I saw a group of girls waiting at an area in the back of the arena, so of course I went over there with them carrying my sign and rose. And then in 5 minutes a police car came zooming down and then an Expedition behind it with A.J. driving it!! I went crazy!! I was screaming and A.J. waved and smiled at us!

Then, Brian and Howie were in a bus looking thing right behind him and Brian poped his head out the window! I waved to him! Then, Howie, Brian, and A.J. came out and waved and smiled to all of us! I was going crazy! I couldn't believe A.J. drove right by me! We were all going crazy and then I just walked around until 7:00pm when they finally let us in.

We went inside and I bought a Backstreet Boys Tour Book.

I walked in and found my seat on the floor. The concert began and LFO came out, Personally I didn't like them at all. They were okay, but nothing compared to BSB. Then, finally after the 30 minute intermission BSB appeared. They came out singing "That's the Way I Like It"...Everyone went crazy! I was screaming as hard as I could. Then, thay sang acapella and my fav part was when they each did a solo. Howie came out first singing and he was wonderful! He is such a great performer! He had a bunch of white roses that he threw into the crowd. Then, A.J. came out...I was scremaing so hard, I was the loudest there. I had a light up rsoe that I was swaying in the air. A.J. sang "Lay Down Beside Me" he lifted his shirt up and my God, I almost passed out. Then, he humped the floor! I went crazy and I got an awesome pic!

Then, Kevin came out singing "Nobody But You" he was so adorable doing his little dances. Then, it was Brian's turn. He came out with his guitar and sang "That's What She Said". Nick was the last to come out and he sang "I Need You Tonight" and he was fantastic! Then, they did "Let's Have a Party" which I loved!! Then, they came out to sing "Quuit Playing Gmaes Wiht my Heart" and the band kept messing up the song(on purpose)the guys kicked them out and took their places...They were so cute! Then, they sang "All I Have to Give" and did their hat routine. They did a great job! Then they sang more of their very popular songs! To make a long show short...They came out at the end singing "Backstreet's Back" they showed parts of the video and the crowd went wild! They appeared in coffins and popped out! It was the greatest!!!! My lungs hurt because I was scremaing so loud! Then, I ran out to the area where they would be leaving and then the cop car exited followed by A.J. in his Expedition and the rest of the guys. I went mad and ran down the road after them until they turned the corner to the highway and were out of sight. I still got in the car and tried to follow them. It was the best!
