One one November 11th and one on March 15. Both of these were held in the Skydome in Toronto Canada. The performances were both fantastic!! Even though both times it was the exact same concert. I must say though. The second wone was better. The costumes changed a bit and there was more lighting and special effects. Also we were luck because the March one was the last concert of the tour. So at the end of the concert AJ stripped down, they boys had silly string and water, and they were going nuts on the stage. After the encore, they introduced all the crew, band, lighting, dancers and went crazy with them too. I must say anyone who has been to a BSB concert is very lucky, I've been to 4 now, but i know many others that wish desperatly that they can get tickets as well. It must be luck.

My friends and I were in the 16th row on the floor(after a lot of frustration)and I love my Brian, so of course I loved Quit Playin' Games, when he was directly over me, goofing off with all the stuffed animals. But During "I want it that way", at the very end, does anyone remember the litle harmony Brian and Nick added...it was something like, "Don't wanna don't wanna, don't wanna hear you say, don't want it, don't want it, don't want it that way.." It was so beautiful, and six months later, I still can't get it out of my head...oh man, now I'm sad, wishing I was still at the Fleetcenter......

The first was during "Get down" and he acted like Britney Spears in the Drive me crazy video. The second was when he started doing ballet(and quite well) during "Perfect fan" Submitted by Patricia Shepherd from Huntington Beach California USA Date: Wed Mar 22 13:13:24 2000 THE MOST FAVORITE PART OF THE BACKSTREET BOYS SHOW THAT I WENT TO WAS EVERYTHING. I WENT TO THEIR OCTOBER 15,1999 SHOW OUT HERE IN CALIFORNIA. FIVE OF MY BEST FRIENDS AND I WENT AND THEY WERE REALLY NOT INTO THEM THEY JUST WANTED TO GO AND SEE WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE. WE HAD GOTTEN THERE AND THEY COULDN'T BELIEVE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WERE THERE. THE SHOW HAD SOLD OUT IN UNDER 10 MINUTES. WE WENT TO FIND OUR SEATS BEFORE THE GUYS CAME ON STAGE TO PREFORM. MY FRIENDS WENT TO THE SHOW EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE NOT FANS AND BEFORE THE FIRST SONG WAS OVER THEY WERE SCREAMING OUT THE GUYS' NAMES. THAT WAS A HIGHLIGHT OF THE SHOW TOO. THAT NIGHT WAS THE MOST FUN I HAVE HAD IN A WHILE. THEN 2 MONTHS AFTER THE CONCERT I GOT TO MEET HOWIE D. AT MY LOCAL RADIO STATION. HE IS SO SWEET AND KIND. HE TALKED TO ME FOR ABOUT 4-5 MINUTES BEFORE THE RADIO STATION PUT HIM ON THE AIR. HE ALSO TOOK A PICTURE WITH ME AND HE SAID THAT I WAS SO SWEET AND POLITE. HE GAVE ME A HUG AND A KISS AND SAID THAT HE HOPED TO SEE ME AGAIN SOMETIME. THAT WAS A HIGH POINT IN MY LIFE. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THEY COME HERE AND DO ANOTHER CONCERT. MY SEATS WERE IN THE TOP SECTION BUT IT WASN'T REALLY THAT BAD AT THE CONCERT BECAUSE OF YOU COULD SEE THEM EVEN WITHOUT THE JUMBO TRON SCREEN. SO UNTIL I CAN GO TO ANOTHER CONCERT I WILL ALWAYS KEEP THEM AND THEIR MUSIC CLOSE TO MY HEART BECAUSE THEY HOLD A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART... KEEP THE BACKSTREET PRIDE ALIVE!!!!

Oh my gosh! I was right in front of Brian too! He's my favorite so I was in HEAVEN! They all looked SOOSOOO HOT! I also like it when they flew into the audience because that's when Brian waved at me! Oh it was great! It was the best concert tour EVER! Submitted by joanna from media usa Date: Wed Mar 22 11:10:50 2000 whats my favorite part of the into the mellenium concert? well there was so many!! well when my seats were moved up yo the first row because there was equipment in the way of our seats that was the best part cause it made all the other parts possible. when howie waved at me and my friend then laughed at us cause we were flippin out, that that was pretty cool. then when we got to touch howie's hand.. that was awsome. then that cute little smile nick gave me was just the best thing i my life. i loved the part when they were on those things that looked like part of a monkey bar cause nick just looked so sexy! actually i loved everything about the show!

My parents think I've gone psycho cause ever since I saw them the first time, I have been begging them to get me tickets to Indianapolis, and when I couldn't get any, I cried for like a week. Lexington was the first time I saw them, and after that I fell in love with them, I guess you could say. They did awesome, and even though I knew it'd be good, they did even better than I thought they could. I will never ever forget that day, or how awesome they sounded on IWITW, the cd doesnt do them justice to their capabilities.

I have a 13 year old daughter though and the BSB is something we enjoy together. We went to three of the Millenium concerts. We went to Cincinnati, Lexington and Indianapolis. My daughter has the same last name as Howie, and for every concert she made a sign for Howie telling him her name. In Cincinnati and Lexington we had nosebleed seats so there was no way Howie was going to see the sign. I decided to suprise her and pay the high scalper price for Indianapolis for her birthday and we got 10th row tickets. When we got there, because they were taping the show the camera was right where our seats were supposed to be. This meant they had to move our seats. We ended up in the front row. All I can say is those black leather pants...whoa!!! Anyway Howie noticed her sign right off saying her full name(of course last name same as his). He smiled, nodded and waved. She was thrilled. She turned her sign around and it said, This is Howie do it! He almost forgot to sing from smiling and winking. She was thrilled. We had AJ on our side most of the time and that was great. He threw his water from his water bottle all over us. When Howie jumped off the stage towards the end he made a point of stopping (even though the security guard was trying to push him on forward)and touched my daughter's hand. He was very sweet. Then during I Want It That Way, he had stolen AJ's pink cowboy hat and was wearing it. My daughter held up her sign one last time before they were done and Howie looked right at her and pointed to her and threw the hat right to her. I tried to dive over the rail but the hat didn't quite make it and bounced back inside the rail. We tried to get the security guard to get it for us, but before he could, one of the BSB crew picked it up and took it to the other side and threw it to someone else. We left with her heart broken. I was willing to go ask the girl for the hat and explain why Howie was throwing it to her and would've even paid her for it, but my daughter said, "no that wouldn't be fair to the girl and she probably wouldn't give it up". My daughter cried the whole way home, once it all sank it. That was along drive home, since we live in Cincinnati, Ohio. In the morning though, she got up and said, "you know what, it's ok, Howie saw my sign, acknowledged me and I got to touch his hand. And it was the thought that counts that he tried to give her something special". Well, we had a night to remember thanks to our Sweet D.
