Date: Jan 11, 2003 Source: Launch Submitted By: jmw Nick Carter will kick off his first solo tour in support of his debut Jive Records album, Now Or Never, on February 17. At 22, Carter is the youngest member of the Backstreet Boys, and he is the first member of the group to launch a solo career. His tour will visit small to midsize clubs and theatres in 17 U.S. cities, and it will continue into early March. Carter, who has played huge arenas and stadiums with the Backstreet Boys in the past, said that the intimate setting of his solo shows will allow for him to interact with his fans. "I wanna be dirty," Nick said. "I wanna be sweaty. I wanna be closer to fans. I wanna be so close to where I could like just touch them, you know what I'm sayin'? And you know, it's just instruments and a P.A. in a little club with a bunch of people who want to hear you, and if they like the music I'm going to give them one hell of a show." Carter's Now Or Never came out on October 29 and debuted at Number 17 on the Billboard 200 albums chart in early November. Tickets for Carter's tour are available via ticketmaster.com. Maverick Records sibling trio Justincase will join Carter on the road in February. Brothers Justin Tosco and Nick Tosco and sister Hannah Tosco will be opening the shows February 17-25. "Nick's got, like, a two-part tour. The first part is a bunch of East Coast dates, and the next is a bunch of Midwest dates, and we're doing all of the East Coast dates during, like, the second week in February," Justin told LAUNCH. "We're really psyched about that--it should be great!"
