The whole Backstreet Boyz thing seems odd to me. I've often wondered if the real Backstreet Boys know what they're doing? Do the BSB know that they have these guys making money by performing THEIR music?! That doesn't seem right.As for me, well, I prefer seeing the real thing (and have 7 times). I just don't see the point of trying to be the Backstreet Boys. They can be fans and all, but they should be just that, fans. As far as creating a group called the Backstreet Boyz, that's pathetic. Maybe they're just going through an identity crisis? If all of these girls claim that they are so amazing, they should get a record deal and be just like the rest of the boy band fakes, like Nsync and O-Town. We all know who the real deal is, the Backstreet Boys. -Cindy

I think all the people that started after the Backstreet Boys suck! All they do is copy the way they sing and everything else, like NSYNC. I think it's stupid and there's now too many boy groups. I am only loyal to BSB and wouldn't consider changing!

BSB are one of a kind. They are my favorite group of all time. They are talented, cute and cool. They opened doors for the other pop groups. I respect and like some of the other pop groups. I have to say I'm loyal to BSB.

Look, i agree with this 'sick tribute band' thing. Why do they have to copy? Do they need money that badly? Are they as desperate as *N-sync for some decent guidance in music? Or are they simply not capable of writing their own stuff?KTBSPA!!!!! (That is bs boys, not bs boyz!)

Hey all bsb fans, I think that all the groups that followed behind the Backstreet Boys are awesome people and please don't go around saying that the BSB are the best out of all cos I think that all of them have different personalities and different types of stlye and that is to far away from copying the one and only Backstreet Boys!!!!!!

I love the real backstreet boys. But I've never been to their concert cuz they never come to Sask and i can't afford to go to another province to see them so when the tribute band came to a town half hour away from where i live, i was soooo happy. I know it wasn't the real thing, but it was the next best thing. Even if i have been to the real Bsb concert, i would still love the tribute band cuz i love going to concerts and acting crazy!!!

The Backstreet Boyz performed here in Hawaii, this past ending May, and beginning June, at our 50th State Fair. My sisters and I were curious, so we attended. I'm sure glad that we did. They were awesome. I'll admit, I wasn't that big a fan of BSB before. Right now, I'm a DIE HARD BSB FAN! Russell, Sam, Carlos, Shawn, and Darryl were the sweetest, polite, respectful, unselfish, talented, and professional group of performers Iv'e ever met. Their band: Danno, Karim, and the Bass player(I'm sorry, I forgot his name), were awesome too. Roger, their manager, and the Sound Guy(I forgot his name too), deserve kudos also. I got to meet them all and they were so cool. They really interacted well with the audience. They made everyone feel special. During that time, I was going through a rough spot in my life. After meeting them, I can honestly say that I'm out of my slump now. Thanks to them. I'm not saying this because they were performing like BSB. Anyone can try, but, I felt that they really put their heart and soul into it. They were different. They totally rule.I thought that they performed superbly, under the circumstances. The heat and smoke from the food being grilled nearby, was too much. To add to that, there were hardly any breezes those nights. Through it all they still put on an awesome show. The girls were screaming, taking pictures, having a great time. I heard one comment from a jealous and insecure boy. He said,"I don't know why their screaming, that's not even the real BSB." This girl turned around and told him,"Let's see you go up there and perform, if your'e so smart." That boy, didn't know what to say, and slowly left. I gave that girl a high five. The nerve of some people putting people down like that. During their performance of The Perfect Fan, i got a chance to go up on stage with them. I was so nervous, and stuff. I sat next to Carlos, he knew that I was a little uncomfortable up there. So, he took my hand. I'm glad that he did, I felt much better after that. I'll admit I didn't know all the words to the song. So, I just sang the chorus with them. It's hard to describe what I was feeling up there. I looked out at the vast audience, and at the Boyz singing to them, it was surreal. I'll never forget that moment. After the song, I gave Carlos a hug(can i die now?), and Russell took my hand and kissed it(i am dying now). They are so awesome. I didn't want to leave. I wish I got to spend more time with them. Dumb job of mine, starts so early in the morning. After the first time I seen them, I went back each and every night that they were on. When they performed, I waved, and they waved back, just like old friends. They even knew me by name. They are the sweetest! Like i said earlier, they are unselfish. After their performances, they still made time to chat, take pictures, and sign autographs for their fans. Nevermind that they probably wanted to rest and relax. They never said no. They were so accomadating. Little did they realize the huge impact these little gestures would make. On their last night performing, my niece graduated from High School. I wasn't sure If I could make it to see them. But, i did. Their last show was just as great as the first. But, it also meant goodbye. I felt so sad and stuff. But, i went with two of my friends, to see them off at the airport. I'm happy to say we were the last ones to see them off. Let me tell you, it was like after 1:00 a.m., and, I had to go to work in like a couple of hours. I was tired, but, I had to see them off. Carlos was so sweet, he knew that, and he was very sympathetic. I really wanted to go with them back to Canada. Sigh. Well, they finally had to board the plane, I gave each of them a hug, told them to have a safe trip, and to come back real soon. I was almost crying. But, I restrained myself. Later that morning, it took all the will in me, not to fall asleep at work. But, it was well worth it. I want to thank all who made it possible for the Backstreet Boyz The Tribute, to be who they are. Russell, Sam, Carlos, Shawn, and Darryl, if your'e reading this, take care and god bless, all your'e fans here in Hawaii want to see you all again real soon! Aloha from Hawaii, Tanya :) *P.S.: e-mail me when you get a chance.
