Nick: Wassup this is Nick! Together: And we're from the Backstreet Boys. Nick: And we're chillin' with our boy John Garabidien. Who has taken us into the Millennium. Howie: With the biggest part on the planet, the Open House Party. Heard all around the world. Nick: You all ready? I don't think you're ready! Whoo c'mon! John: Howie and Nick, hello. Nick: Wassup! (in this high-pitched voice) Howie: Hey! John: Nice to see you again! Howie: Good to see you too! Nick: You too man! John: You guys have an incredible tour going on and I guess the biggest problem for the tour is you didn't have more time to spend in every single city. It sold out in what, 3 or 4 hours? Howie: Yeah Nick (simultaneously): Something like that... Howie: It's unbelievable. It was in the record, The Guiness Book of World Records I heard. Nick: Did we? Howie: Yeah that's what I heard...a lil bit ago... Nick: (stumped and so cute) Oh wow... John: You didn't expect that? Nick: No... Howie: Not really John: So now what do you do? I mean, You have all these fans, people are trying to get the tickets and the scalpers are making a fortune and even the scalpers can't get the tickets. Nick: I know..::Sigh:: Howie: (simultaneously) I know..we even put on extra dates, but we only had a certain amount of time to put in those amount of dates and we weren't able to get into every place we really wanted to, like Texas and Cleveland and Indianapolis, so there's some talk about possibly doing another feature tour maybe in Feb, sometime around in there, ya know, to finish up and hit more of the states that we didn't get the chance to. John: I imagine the fact now that the winter season of basketball means that the arenas are really booked up. Nick: Yeah, exactly... Howie: yeah...right... John: That slows it down... Howie: We had a little bit more free time now...we're having some actual days off. John: I can see the fans listening now, ooh they're out running around in the daytime, where do I find them? Howie: Psst...McDonald's.. Nick: Arcade! John: You go to places like that? McDonald's and arcades? Nick: It's hard. It's been hard..I mean, like I wanted to go to the movies the other night, and it really kind've couldn't happen because we had a little fan situation outside the hotel. And ya know we... we try our hardest, ya know some of the guys go to clubs, and we usually don't get much of a chance to get out of the hotel, but when we do... John: Do people recognize you? Nick: Yes! Howie: A bit now more... Nick: Yah, a bit more than usual... Howie: More than in the past... John: Oh your pictures are all over the place. I just came into the San Jose Arena and people are driving around with vans, with ur posters all over the sides of the van, and holding big signs and ur pictures are on the signs! Howie: The poor parents! I've seen them out there with shaving cream on the windows and everything and I'm thinking, Oh my god...they're serious. Nick: (interrupting) I got stuck in traffic, man. I mean, I was on the way back from my house cause I just moved to...Oh (Howie and John laugh at his mistake here)..I just moved to LA, so we were performing in Anaheim and I stayed at my house and I got stuck in traffic on the way to the concert with all the fans and I was looking around and we asked some fans how to get to the venue cause we didn't know how to get there (Howie and John laugh some more)...Hey, scuse me..you know how to get to the venue? John: Ahahahahahaha! (he's gonna die of laughter..i swear) Howie: Just follow the thirty cars ahead of you.. John: Are you Nick?? Nick: No, I just look like him! ::does a cute little laugh:: John: Tell us about the show. Because all of the people who can't see the show, I mean, there are thousands, hundreds of thousands of fans who won't be able to see the Millennium show. Howie: We've got about I'd say 14? 14, 15 songs that we do? Nick: Yeah.. Howie: I think there's more than that.. Nick: There's like 18.. Howie: 18 maybe? Nick: There's like 18, almost 20 and..and uh..we have every..like...all..most of them are the singles and and..it's I mean, it's an all around great show..it's a lot of..it's really energy packed.. John: It must be so much different than when you first started out. Cause you have all these hits and u go up and sing these hits and the minute you start they go, Oh here's my favorite song... Nick: (interrupting) That's...unbelievable... John: As opposed to when you first started out..as a new group.. Nick: I can't believe, I can't believe that ya know..after all these years we've been working and have all these songs and everything and it just baffles me to think that ya know every single one of the songs we're doing were singles and very successful singles.. Howie: Yah..and actually this show..it's pretty much we do all the new songs from the Millennium album and we do all like the greatest hits of the singles from the last album and it's good to see all the fans out there knowing all the music and they're singing, they're right along with us. John: Well ur coming out with such great music. I mean, these are great songs that you do and it's...(Nick says thanks in the background) Howard Stern was playing I want it that way on his show every day, I mean he loved the song. I mean what's with that? Nick: Really? I dunno.. Howie: I think I heard he had a different version of it? Uh..was it get Ky or something like that? John: hahahahaha! Nick: NO WAAAY!!! ::laughs:: OOh man. I knew it was too good to be true! Howie: I know, right? It was funny, we had a umm..after the MTV Awards, Howard Stern..What is his buddy? Um... Nick: OOOh...Lisp..Lisp... John: Stuttering John? Nick: Ooh! Stuttering John! We, we were having a regular interview...with the press and everything.. Howie: I mean just everybody, the whole media.. Nick: and all of a sudden, this guy just comes out of nowhere..and starts yelling at us.. Howie: And he was asking us our sexual preferences and if we were with each other..and I just mean, it was like.. Nick: And we were like..And we were like...And who is this guy? Howie: And what was so funny about it, none of us recognized him... Nick: later on.. Howie:..We just thought this was some kinda weird pervert guy in the audience that was just trying to ask us some sex... Nick: (interrupting) And NOBODY was doing anything about it! (Howie, Nick, and John were all laughing hysterically throughout this) Howie: Exactly! Nick: Nobody was doing anything about it! Howie: And finally, they kicked him out..he's cool..I hear his kids are really into our music.. John: Really? Howie: so I heard he respects us as well. John: But you know, when you get to the top, everyone's going to come at you with something, I mean poor Celine Dion..ya know.. Nick and Howie: Right..yeah.. Nick: Oh my god.. Howie: We just bumped into Weird Al Yankovic the other day. He said he did an album.. Nick: He said he had something on his album.. Howie: Yah a track.. Nick: Everybody? A polka version of Backstreet's Back, yeah.. John: Oh you know what you're in? I just realized..the Blink 182 song.. Howie: Oh yeah.. John: Have you seen it? Nick: That's hillarious..yah we saw it.. Howie: I think it's hillarious.. Nick: Naw, I mean, it's just that at this point in our career, you gotta be able to learn to poke fun at your ownself.. John: That's a great way at looking at it, Nick Nick: Mm hmm.. John: Congratulations on all your success. I know you work very, very hard to get where you are, and its gonna keep on going...so thank you. Howie: Thanks for all your support! We won't forget the early days back in the basement. John: We'll get a couple of lights turned on for you next time! Nick: I tell you what! I hope you get some lights down on that driveway, man, because I was afraid at what was gonna come out and get me! Hehe.
