Backstreet Boys land Las Vegas residency at the Sphere. Backstreet's back, all right
Backstreet's back, all right! The Backstreet Boys are heading to Las Vegas this summer with nine shows at the Sphere. The iconic Y2K boy band will kick off a nine-show residency July 11, making the quintet the first pop act to play the state-of-the art venue christened by U2 in 2023. 'We're heading 'Into The Millennium' once again!' the group said Wednesday on Instagram. 'Relive your Backstreet Boys Y2K memories, but this time… LARGER THAN LIFE at @SphereVegas starting this July!' Band members AJ McLean, Kevin Richardson, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough and the embattled Nick Carter are bringing their 1999 album, which featured the hit 'I Want It That Way' as well as 'Larger Than Life,' 'Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely' and 'The One,' back to the stage. Indeed, the 'boys' are currently grown men whose original fervent fanbase likely now consists of moms whose children are old enough for a Vegas trip. 'Fans can expect an unforgettable experience as the Backstreet Boys bring their legendary 'Millennium' album to life, alongside a selection of their greatest hits,' concert producer Live Nation said in a statement. 'Beloved classics like 'I Want It That Way,' and 'Larger Than Life,' will be delivered or enhanced with cutting-edge visuals and sound made possible by Sphere's revolutionary immersive technology.'
