Backstreet Boys review – sympathy, hugs and immaculate harmonies

O2 Arena, London Suffused with awareness of the death of Nick Carter’s brother Aaron, the crowd’s support for the boyband definers was rewarded by a flawless set

T he energy in the O2 Arena on Sunday is rowdy. Groups of women are waving flashing LED sticks and taking pulls from plastic bottles of red wine. Millennial friendship groups in white cargo trousers and bucket hats are filming each other with phone torches on. A girl in a diamante camo cap, carrying a cardboard cut-out of Kevin Richardson’s face, is shouting at her friend about someone being “done for assault”. It’s the first day of the UK leg of Backstreet Boys’ DNA World Tour (for 2022, at least – the tour, which has been running since 2019, has passed through London before) and the hours leading up to it were full of uncertainty as to whether or not it would go ahead.

Taking place the day after the tragic death of Nick Carter’s younger brother Aaron was announced, a heavy cloud hung over the proceedings. “My heart is broken,” Nick wrote on Instagram shortly before the show. “Even though my brother and I had a complicated relationship, my love for him has never faded.” He was visibly emotional during the two hour, 32-song set. But the mood of the night was one of palpable support, both from the audience and from fellow bandmates Kevin, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough and Brian Littrell, who hugged and high-fived him throughout.

The arena erupted into applause when Nick sang solo for the first time, and screams of “we love you Nick” were peppered throughout the night – particularly during the introduction of Breathe, a ballad about “family”, which they dedicated to Aaron. “We wanted to find a moment in our show to recognise him,” Kevin said, while they gathered into a group huddle.

As far as high production pop mega-tours go, the show itself was flawless. It’s difficult to imagine how Backstreet Boys – a 29-year-old group, assembled at the dawn of an era that saw pop culture dictated largely by the desires of teenage girls – could work in a far more cynical decade, when everyone on stage and off is in their mid-30s on average. Those concerns are blown away within the first few minutes, however, when it becomes apparent that their voices are immaculate, the harmonies on which they have always prided themselves have become better with age, and even the dodgiest of actions-to-lyrics dance moves still make you want to join in like it’s Cheese Night at the world’s greatest student’s union.

Naturally, they traffic somewhat in nostalgia. References to Smash Hits, Ant and Dec (for whom they opened on their first ever UK tour), and the year 1999 abound – particularly during a seven-song run of early hits towards the end of the night, including Everybody (Backstreet’s Back) and I Want It That Way. Calling on their legacy as one of the more jocular boybands, there were plenty of hi-jinks to keep people entertained, including more outfit changes than Lady Gaga (I lost count around five) and a skit that saw AJ and Kevin do a bit of fandom-reversal by taking their trousers off and throwing them into the audience. A few songs were given a modern revamp – Backstreet’s Back was treated to a whomping EDM remix, while closer Larger Than Life cut to the instrumental for Timbaland’s The Way I Are – which was probably unnecessary, but fun all the same.

For a group so moored in a particular time and place, it can be easy to overlook Backstreet Boys’ continued impact. In 2019, they became the first group since Led Zeppelin to have their first 10 albums reach the Top 10 on the Billboard 200, and the DNA tour is scheduled to run well into 2023 . A large part of their appeal comes down to the fact that these are simply some of the most electric pop songs in modern history – I defy anyone not to fling their arms towards heaven and scream “TELL ME WHY” during the chorus of Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely. But they are also songs designed to be heard in a crowd. Much like the fabled Boys themselves, they come alive when surrounded by people screaming.

Amazing show from start to finish. The show felt really intimate even though it was at a big venue. The guys sounded great and showed they can still hit those notes while dancing. They worked hard for this tour and you can tell. All of the dance moves and videos , included with the shows was a surprise and add to the already awesome show, I can’t wait to see them again!!!

This was an absolutely amazing show! BSB did not fail to disappoint. I saw them several years ago when they came to Hershey with NKOTB, and as fantastic as that show was, this one was even better. I already can not wait for them to come back to Philly, and I am definitely purchasing their new album to add to my collection.

Live updates, taylor swift fans in the uk have lost $1.2m from eras tour scams: bank.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Taylor Swift’s loyal legion of Swifties in the United Kingdom have reportedly been scammed out of $1.2 million in their quest to see the pop star’s coveted “Eras Tour.”

Some 90% of the cons have targeted 25 to 34-year-olds seeking tickets to Swift’s record-breaking international tour on Facebook, including Facebook Marketplace, according to Lloyds Bank.

“A search of Facebook revealed dozens of unofficial groups have been set up, many with tens of thousands of members, specifically for people looking to buy and sell tickets for Taylor Swift concerts,” the London-based shared as part of an “urgent warning” issued Wednesday.

“Likewise Facebook Marketplace has various listings for tickets at venues all over the country [UK],” as Swift gears up to head across the pond for the first time in six years.

The Post’s own search for Eras Tour tickets in the UK did, in fact, yield numerous posts and groups that claim to feature “legit” transactions, including one with upwards of 40,000 members and another dedicated solely to scoring access to Swift’s stops at London’s Wembley Stadium in June and August.

Lloyds found that 600 of its own customers had been victimized alone, losing anywhere from roughly $400 to upwards of $1,200.

Outside of its own banking system, Lloyds estimated some 3,000 more UK residents may have fallen prey to the scams, according to its warning, which was earlier reported on by Business Insider.

In most of the fraudulent transactions, “victims are asked to pay upfront for the tickets, but once the payment is made, the scammers disappear,” Lloyds explained. “This leaves the buyer without the tickets and out of pocket.”

“For her legion of dedicated Swifties, the excitement is building ahead of Taylor’s Eras Tour finally touching down in the UK this summer. However cruel fraudsters have wasted no time in targeting her most loyal fans as they rush to pick up tickets for her must-see concerts,” the bank’s fraud prevention director, Liz Ziegler, said.

Ziegler advised aspiring Eras Tour attendees to buy “directly from reputable, authorized platforms” — and “even then, always pay by debit or credit card for the greatest protection.”

“It’s easy to let our emotions get the better of us when we find out our favorite artist is going to be performing live, but it’s important not to let those feelings cloud our judgement when trying to get hold of tickets,” Ziegler added.

For those that still want to take a risk of buying second-hand, “if you’re being asked to pay by bank transfer, particularly from a seller you’ve found on social media, that should immediately set alarm bells ringing,” Ziegler warned.

It’s been a “Cruel Summer” for Swifties in other parts of the world as well — including 20-year-old Australian fan Grace, who told a local radio station late last year that she lost over $775 after seeing a “friend of a friend” selling four of the highly coveted tickets on Facebook.

“I messaged them and they sent a screenshot of the email confirmation of having bought these tickets. It had their name in it, it had the section of the tickets, it had four tickets,” she explained.

“None of my alarm bells were raised because that all looked above board to me.”

But in reality, it wasn’t her friend on the other side of the message at all, but rather a scammer who hacked into the Facebook account.

Fearing the worst, Grace phoned up her friend and learned she wasn’t the only victim.

Yin, like Grace, took to Facebook to find a ticket being sold second-hand, forking over about $388 to a seller she thought was selling legitimate tickets before being blocked.

And fellow Australian Swiftie named Nick was  yet another fan who was scammed  by a hacker masquerading as a Facebook friend.

After he made contact,  the scammer offered various tickets  and even asked Nick how his family was doing, feigning a personal connection.

Nick lost $388 to the scam after he transferred the funds and the hacker vanished.

Tickets to Swift’s Eras Tour have been so popular since the concert kicked off in March 2023 that it became the highest-grossing tour of its kind by December, when it raked in more than $1 billion, according to Pollstar’s 2023 year-end charts.

Thank’s to the concert’s blockbuster success, Swift, 34, scored billionaire status.

And it’s not over yet: Swift won’t perform her final Eras Tour concert until December 2024 in Vancouver, Canada, following a stint across Europe and additional US shows in Florida, Louisiana and Indiana.

Lloyds Bank is aiming to help Taylor Swift fans in the UK avoid a cruel summer. The bank has issued an “urgent warning” over ticket scams for the upcoming UK leg of the superstar’s Eras Tour, finding that Swifties are being “targeted by a wave of concert ticket scams flooding social media.”

The institution further estimates that industry-wide across the UK there are likely to have been at least 3,000 victims since tickets went on sale, with over £1 million ($1.25 million) lost to fraudsters so far.

More than 90% of reported cases start with fake ads or posts on Facebook, which includes Facebook Marketplace, according to Lloyds, with dozens of unofficial groups set up specifically for people looking to buy and sell tickets for Taylor Swift concerts. 

Lloyds warned, “With all UK dates now sold out, many more fans are likely to fall victim to ticket scams in the coming weeks and months, both leading up to the tour and once the concerts begin in June.”

In its research, Lloyds found that the number of reported scam cases relating to concert tickets more than doubled last summer compared to the same period a year earlier (up by 158%). Among the other major artists most commonly targeted last summer were Coldplay, Harry Styles and Beyonce.

Liz Ziegler, Fraud Prevention Director, Lloyds Bank, said, “For her legion of dedicated Swifties, the excitement is building ahead of Taylor’s Eras Tour finally touching down in the UK this summer. However, cruel fraudsters have wasted no time in targeting her most loyal fans as they rush to pick up tickets for her must-see concerts.

Ziegler suggested, “Buying directly from reputable, authorized platforms is the only way to guarantee you’re paying for a genuine ticket. Even then, always pay by debit or credit card for the greatest protection. If you’re being asked to pay by bank transfer, particularly from a seller you’ve found on social media, that should immediately set alarm bells ringing.”
