Date: Nov 02, 2099 Nick was a guest on the radio station in Baltimore, Maryland, B102.7 and here's the transcript... (around 7:15 or so pm, November 1, '99) A sound bite comes on that says: "HI! WE'RE THE BACKSTREET BOYS! AND YOU'RE HANGING WITH...(and howie goes)..."what's this guy's name again?" (lol and the guys answer)..."PRIESTLY!" Priestly: (I didn't catch the beginning quite, but here's what I have, sorry! I guess he just introduced nick to the public..) hehe, stop laughing! Nick: (laughing) hehehe Priestly: Ladies & Gentlemen, from the Backstreet Boys, Nick Carter! Nick: hey, whassup? hehe Priestly: how ya doin? Nick: I'm just chillin', talkin to everybody in Baltimore, heheh Priestly: very very cool, well nick, we wanna kinda play a 20 questions with ya, if you will. Nick: no problem Priestly: I wanted to open the phone lines up to the listeners, but I know they'd explode, so, instead, I kinda did a lil, secret, I dunno, searching, if you will, and hit some fan sites- Nick: how cool- Priestly: -they adore the Backstreet Boys and we wanna kinda see if this is true or not. the first thing I read, is this true? no matter what country you guys are in, you travel in this luxury bus, that's got 5 beds, a stereo, a GIANT screen tv, a VCR, and a video game station? Nick: oohh, definitely, not true. Priestly: (laughs) definitely not true! Nick: well definitely, see over in Europe, the buses are different, they're more, they're more so like a regular coach would be. Priestly: really? Nick: they have bunks in em, but they're really not...they they have seats up in the front, just ya know, (logs??) over there and everything. and yeah, they do have TVs on them, and we play a lil bit of playstation. but, it it definitely doesn't have a big screen tv. Priestly: oh, I was getting ready to say, you're not dealing with one of those flat screen TVs, that are like 32 inches big? Nick: yeah, I wish (laughs) Priestly: (laughs)it would make touring a lot nicer, wouldn't it? Nick: yeah Priestly: I hear ya, bro. alright, here check this one out. before every show, you guys focus for a few minutes, you high-five each other, you hug, you pray, and then you hug again. Nick: (snickers)(high-pitched voice) yeah...yeah...i guess you could say we do that... Priestly: you got some kind of a ritual? or is that close...- Nick: (says something I can't understand) well, I mean, it's just something to ??give big?? ya, know? Priestly: I gotcha, of course! Nick: ya know, and of course we always give our love before we go up on stage. Priestly: you're a good bunch of guys. Nick: yeah Priestly: and I know this. alright now, here, this is what i'm gonna roll the dice on, okay? and say that this is definitely not true, cuz if it was, you guys would be like sticks. (nick and priestly chuckle) Priestly: it says here that each of you lose about 4 pounds during a performance. I mean, I know you;re working- Nick: lemme, lemme tell you what- Priestly: what's that? Nick: I mean, we've- you definitely lose a lot of weight up on stage, I mean, cuz you drink a lot of water, you tend to drink a lot of water, becuz bukily, you wanna, ya know, keep everything hydrated, I guess you'd wanna say... Priestly: absolutely. Nick: and,um, when you're up on stage, you just, you sweat a lot, especially 2 hours nonstop, just dancing and stuff. so I mean, you could lose like 2 pounds, I wouldn't say 4. Priestly: I was gonna say, 4 pounds a show? (nicky coughs) you guys are gonna be nothing by the end of, ya know, 3 shows! there's not much to you guys... Nick: (laughs like I can't believe you said that) hehe. Priestly: so uh, let's see here what else? confirm or deny this for me? your name comes from a popular teen hangout, called the Backstreet Market? Nick: uh, it used to be, a long long time ago, which was like early 90's. ya know, it was a place called the Backstreet Market. Priestly: really? Nick: and it was a fact that, um, whether whether or not- that was exactly where we got it exactly from, which like it was, ya know, a couple names you throw out, different things...see how they sound together. you always wanna come out with something different. Priestly: I hear ya. well uh, I gotcha on the phone. we're gonna hang out, we're gonna talk some more, let's go to commercials- I just want the proof (nick is talking in background, but I can't make it out), ladies and gentlemen, who are ya? Nick: (since he was talking, he's now lost lol) what's that? Priestly: go head, tell- Nick: who am I? okay, (laughs) I think i'm nick! Priestly: nick carter from the backstreet boys! ya think? no, I know for fact! alright, hang on the line, and we'll be right back! Nick: alright then they break for commercial Priestly: hey, it's priestly, back with nick carter from the backstreet boys. uh, born in New York, Jamestown, huh? Nick: yeah, I was born up there. Priestly: i'm a New York boy, too, myself. Nick: it's really upstate (laughs) Priestly: really- yeah, it is, i'm a Long Island guy, myself. Nick: really... Priestly: but, uh, we;re talkin a lil bit bout you now, we're doing the 20 questions, and ya know, kinda confirming and denying the facts that the fans seem to be circulating on the internet. at 9 years old, you were in the musical "The Phantom of the Opera?" Nick: yeah, I wasn't actually in the musical...it was in school. Priestly: okay... Nick: and it was just a it was like a school play, and I kinda got lucky to get the part cuz, first place, because I was in a different grade, and one of the guys had dropped out-or uh, he didn't wanna do it. Priestly: so it's a great opportunity Nick: the teacher heard about me, heard that I was a singer. and uh, so she offered it. that's how it kinda happ-how that went. it was a cool lil thing for school. Priestly: it says here, this is an interesting thing, I thought, that when you were younger, you were kinda unsure about your vocal talent and your opportunities in the music world, that you were focusing on sports. Nick: ye- well i, no I said, I think what they were tryin to probably say was I would have LIKED to have been in sports. Priestly: OH Nick: yeah I think that kinda got...misconstrued. I never got ot go to high school, so it's like, cuz I jumped right out of junior high into the group, and then immediately I did tutoring. Priestly: AH Nick: so, from then, ya know, i, I never got to experience high school, so I would have loved to have gone and played sports and do some of dat. and actually I still wanna pursue soem type of sporting career after this. Priestly: well what kind of sports you into? Nick: um, i'm into... personally I love, I love football, I love ya know watching the (??) of football, I love watching sports in general. I love to play basketball... Priestly: mmkay... Nick: I love playing basketball, and there's probably something I wanna do. i'm sure, ya know, if we ever get soem time in the future, i'd go to college and play some basketball. Priestly: excellent! Nick: OR football- Priestly: if you were in college, (nick coughs) what would you be interested in studying? Nick: um, I dunno, I think i'd probably- it definitely wouldn't be math! (dj laughs) cuz, math is not me and the ??activity?? I think i'd be uh....some time of...some type of history...what would you call that...?..uhh... Priestly: it would be history! yeah, it would be history, like, uh history, socialogy, that kind of stuff. Nick: yeah, so it would kinda be cool to like get into archaeology or somethin like dat. Priestly: I could imagine what it would be liek, being nick carter, going to college. Nick: I know, it would be kind of...odd, (laughs) Priestly: bombarded, you would be man. that would be nuts. Nick: it'd be fun Priestly: yeah, I think you'd have a REAL good time. uh lets' see here, other things about you...this was interesting...i did soem research, ok? and is it true that you've recently developed an allergy to cats?? Nick: n-i've HAD that allergy for a long long time Priestly: it says that you have a cat named PINKY! Nick: ooohh, my goodness! Priestly: oh Nick: that was...do you know how long ago that...that cat in particular...that was bout...almost like, taht was like........9 years ago... Priestly: really? Nick: ...i've had that cat, yeah. she was Pinky, and the reason why we named her Pinky was she had uh 7 toes Priestly: that's a freaky cat! Nick: yeah, anyway it was like a little thing, a 7-toed cat Priestly: well also, I got these notes here, on a terrier named Boo-Boo?

Nick: yeah, I know (laughs) Priestly: he jsut wants the attention, that's all nick. Nick: it's cool man. he's running around...doing SOMEthing... Priestly: so, I know you're busy, but what about giving us a vocal intro to one of your songs? Nick: uhmm, hhmm, let's see...which song didja wanna hear?....uhh...
