NKOTBSB at Fenway Archives - I am a Honey Bee

It was a packed house for the NKOTBSB concert!

As Amanda noted, “I don’t think Fenway park has seen so many vaginas at one time.” I woud have to agree. you think restroom lines are bad at a Sox game. Ha! these lines were 100+ ladies deep.

I created this medley of little spinets of video I took during the NKOTBSB show at Fenway this past weekend. I love getting to hear bits of the both bands at once.

This photo is specifically for Amanda!

And this photo is for me!

Check out the guys wearing Bruins jersey’s since the Bruins are playing in the Stanley Cup. (Go Bruins!) A check wardrobe change, and NKOTB put on Celtics jersey’s and BSB put on Orlando Magic jersey’s to represent each hometown.

Backstreet Boys played Everybody for their encore. Classic. Check out the video below.

In middle school I used to go over my best friend’s house and we would watch their concert DVD’s while doing homework. Often the DVD’s have instructions on how to do some of their dances, including Everybody. We might have tried the dance, might have…

The NKOTB did their encore on the Green Monster. BSB then joined them to do a mash up of their hits, similar to their one they did at the AMA awards when they first announced their collaboration and upcoming tour.

They were selling shirts that said ‘Once in a Lifetime’ about having them play together at Fenway. As much as I enjoyed the shirt I decided to save my $40 and just rely on my memories, photos, and videos. Obviously, I will be scrapbooking this!

BSB “Everybody”

NKOTB “Hang Tough” and encore Medley

You may recall that I confessed my love for The Backstreet Boys last year when their newest album came out. They were my first concert!! They are my ‘I-know-every-word-to-this-song’ and my ‘drive-Pricer-super-crazy-by-playing-all-their-CD’s-on-repeat’ band. So when I heard talks of a tour with New Kids on the Block I was tweeking out a bit. what? NKOTB AND BSB?!?!?!! One year my camp councilor woke us up every morning by BLASTING a NKOTB song. You will def wake up to ‘Hang Tough’ blasting and wake up happy. When the ‘boys’ ended the American Music Awards with a mashup I sat glued to the TV and watched it over and over again.

Fast forward a few months to their tickets going on sale and Amanda sending out a tweet about getting some American Express presale tickets. Sign me up!! After counting down the months, weeks, days we finally made our way to Fenway to see NKOTBSB!!!!

Every aspect of the show was fantastic!!

Jordin Sparks opened for the bands. It was the second time I had seen her as an opener

Mayor Menio named June 11th 2011 NKOTBSB day (actually it might just be NKOTB day but you can’t understand a word that man really says)

Mark Wahlberg, aka Marky Mark, came out to introduce the bands

The bands ran out on the field from the Red Sox dug out for intros

It poured rain but we were under the upper deck so remained dry

Even though it poured and was so cold the boys kept performing and even had fun in the rain splashing around and using the stage as a slip and slide
