I am paying $45 for the ticket, but if it cost more than this, I would be willing to pay at least $80 for the ticket. I'm saying this because I also went to their concert in St. Louis on November 17th, and this is the same show. But if it was thier show that I'd never seen before, I would still probably pay $80 for the ticket.

We got pretty good seats, too.They are in section 113, which is almost floor seats. They only cost $45.00 which was the cover price. I would spend as much as I would be allowed to for tickets. but my mom has other ideas. Her limit is about $100 which is totally cheap. oh well Submitted by Sara from Fountain Valley California USA Date: Mon Dec 27 14:55:42 1999 The most I would pay would probably be $400.

The day tickets went on sale I wated in this huge ass line for the ticket lady to give I swear the last row in the whole place it was against the wall in the last row all the way up top. I was in tears. So I took every penny, dime, nickle whatever then i took all my savings bonds that i got as a when i was born that my aunts and uncles all assumed were going tords collage. But we all know what happens when you assume. By the time i was done I had 500 to get a 3rd row on the floor ticket. The backstreetBoys totally kicked ass. I was soooo close I saw thier sweat. I even talked Leighann Wallace for like 2 seconds (Brians gf) i got her autograph. I asked my mom who sat in 90million rows back what she saw and she said little spots! So the Bsb only came on for 2 hours about so i paid 4.16 a min to see them and it was the best one of the best nights of my life!! Submitted by holly from Cincinnati Ohio USA Date: Sun Dec 26 22:08:26 1999 When i found out they were coming here, to cincinnati i was so excited. i could hardly sleep or eat the whole week but finally i made it to saturday morning. we got down to firtstar center at like 6:45 am to meet up with some other friends who were trying to get tickets. since we though there would be some sort of drawing we split up in the line and waited. at like 9:30 this guy came out and held up a box (from which everyone was supposed to draw his/her number) and the mad rush was on. after we all got our numbers my friends and i reunited and found that the best number we had was 49, or seventh in line since there were 7 windows open. my story isnt so sad because we did get tix but they were up so high....... anyways it was early sept and i was reading the paper and i saw an advertisement for bsb tix. for kicks my friend and i decided to call to see what areas they had available and how much they were. well we found out that they had second row!!! only they were $650, before service charges. to make a long story short we bought them-$682.50 for each one. for lexington, the friday night show we spent $80 for lower arena and that show...seeing brian and kevin in their hometown...it had so much emotion and when brian brought his mom up there i almost cried. i actually enjoyed that one more than the one in cincinnati. and finally i spent $95 for the first show in indanopolis for march 10. so there is no price to great for me. i'd do anything to see the boys, anything at all. if anyone from like indy or cincy wants to talk about the concerts, or is going to any of the upcoming ones feel free to email me i'd love to talk. holly Submitted by Katie from Shelbyville Indiana USA Date: Sun Dec 26 21:17:57 1999 I went to the Backstreet Boys concert in Cincinnati, Ohio on November 15th & I have to say it was the best [and only] concert I've been to! My father paid for the tickets to the show which ended up costing a little over $2,200. We had front-row seats which was a once in a lifetime experience that I will never forget. I would give almost anything I own to do it again. Submitted by Bridget from Long Island New York U.S.A.

Submitted by Ashley from Bucyrus Ohio USA Date: Sun Dec 26 19:44:03 1999 I have been a Backstreet Boys fan ever since I first heard " Quit Playing Games ( with my heart )" on the radio.When I first saw Nick's gorgeous, gorgeous image, I knew I had fallen in love and when I saw Kevin's body, Howie's wink, A.J.'s eyes and funky style, and Brian's blue eyes and innocent smile, I fell in love as well. But when I first heard their voices, it was like angels singing. I knew I would not rest until I saw them in concert. I own every single one of there singles, their movies, taped tv appereances, clothes, posters, pillows, and CD's and imports. That's why I paid a total of $410 for two Backstreet Boys tickets for the October 4th show in Columbus, Ohio at Schottenstein's. It was the best day of my life. They had great opening acts--EYC and Mandy Moore. And it was hysterical when Nick kept doing karate to kick the camera flying over them. And it was beautiful listening to Kevin play the piano. At the end when they all get on the round stand in the middle and go down, a girl threw her little tank top and jacket at A.J. He got the biggest smile on his face, put the shirt and jacket on and said "Thanks". The Backstreet Boys are the greatest band alive and I stand up for them every time someone calls them " a bunch of girls " or "they're fags or gay" cause they're not. They're five incredible angels with voices from God and they're just persuing their dream career. -Ashley Submitted by Kristy from Saint John New Brunswick Canada Date: Sun Dec 26 19:11:05 1999 My very first BSB concert was 2 years ago... December 27th, 1997. My best friend and I (we're both 19) wanted to see them but they were only going to a city 6 hours away from us and we knew it would be difficult to get tickets. We decided that we still wanted to try our hardest to get there and that we'd do anything... so we started calling the Metro Center in Halifax every week for info on ticket sales (info on when they were going on sale wasn't being released) We did this for about a month and one week when we called they said that the tickets went on sale the saturday before and that it was all sold out. We were devestated at first but were just as determined, if not more. Knowing that it was a long shot we sent an add to the Halifax newspaper and just sat back and waited - which seems like an easy enough thing to do but it was the most anxious either of us have ever felt!! Throughout the first week and a half people would call me asking if I had tickets to sell and finally 2 weeks before the actual concert someone called me and offered me 2 tickets for $201 and without any hestitation at all I said yes. It was the most amazing feeling in the whole world and it was even better because we worked so hard to get them. The Boys always say 'never give up', we didn't and it paid off. If I had it to do all over again I wouldn't change a thing... even how much we paid, every minute of anxiety and stress was worth it. The memories and the experience of seeing the BSB are priceless and make up for everything. First Page - Previous - Next - Last - Add Entry - Other Topics - Message Boards - Exit Page 29 of 50
