^^^sorry, this board has already reached its hanson fan quota of 1..youre gonna have to post somewhere else

6/6/2010 5:51:22 PM

who is with them tonight. there are like 6 tour buses

6/6/2010 5:53:41 PM

i wish i was going

it would be amazinggggggggggggg

not cause i'm a groupie. i always preferred nsync over bsb. i didn't consider hanson to be in the running with those bands but hanson was my #1 obsession. i would never go see hanson now. its not the same as going to a BSB concert. BSB would be so bad its good. hanson would just be bad.

i am always slightly suspect of people that can go to a concert like bsb, nsync, etc and not have fun. just take it for what it isssss.

true story

back in 1994 or 95 my middle school in wilmington (myrtle grove middle school) held a fundraiser throughout the semester. We were told that the top 100 students who sold the most units would get special VIP seating for an end of the semester concert - the band was never named.

well the end of the semester rolled around, I was in the top 100, so I got to sit in the front couple of rows in our gym for a concert featuring none other than the Backstreet Boys. This was a few years before they blew up, but they were definitely playing a fundraiser at a middle school in wilmington, nc. The event is documented and pictures are shown in our school yearbook. I would scan it in for proof, but I think the album is at my moms house, I'm not positive though.

the vip students also were given band posters and were allowed to stay after the show to get the poster signed by every member of the group. I wish I knew where that poster was, I couldve ebay'd it and made some cash

/true story

6/6/2010 5:57:55 PM

hahaha that is freaking awesome! i'm jealous.

junior mafia played at my middle school. we were pretty ghetto.

6/6/2010 5:59:42 PM

Mercury Morris spoke at an assembly at my high school about the dangers of drugs

6/6/2010 6:02:41 PM

lil' kim did NOT give us that speech.

i barely remember the show. if it even was one. i just think they yelled a lot and all the black people went cray cray

its in my 6th grade year book though

6/6/2010 6:04:24 PM

6/6/2010 6:05:22 PM

as soon as JT's acting career is over

6/6/2010 6:06:20 PM

as soon as JT is crushed in an orgy

6/6/2010 6:08:47 PM

he's acting now?

6/6/2010 6:10:13 PM

~~

6/6/2010 6:11:05 PM

IMDB tells us that he's been in about 12 movies, including 4 that are in production

Friends With Benefits intrigues me, mainly because I have a serious crush on Mila Kunis

6/6/2010 6:16:44 PM

6/6/2010 6:17:55 PM

Same shit happened in Goldsboro at Dillard (then Elementary, but now Middle), when I was in 6th Grade in 1992-93.


If i recall correctly, they were called "The Upbeat Boys" back then.

they were still called the Backstreet Boys when they came to our school. I do remember them having a song where they talked about giving "you" a bath/shower/something revolving around bathing and they had a little dance where it looked like they were scrubbing their chests

its burned into my memory, maybe I should see a therapist

6/6/2010 7:19:13 PM

I remember that i didn't make the top 100, and I was pretty jealous on the kids who did..... until this band came out.


I was like "1. Who the fuck are these people, and 2. This is the worst type of music I've ever heard."





I was even a pretentious little music shit back then.

6/6/2010 7:26:00 PM

hey they came to my high school and performed for us as a result of some magazine and fruit fundraiser, no one knew who they were at the time, and I had the poster and it signed and everything, its at my parents place in our attic, prob worth alotof mula now, who knows, but yeah they came to Greenville , NC it was either in 1992 or 1993.

The performance wasnt bad, everyone was like oh this is the white version of Boyz II Men, however I still think Nsync harmonizes MUCH better then backstreet boys do!

I think you all missed the cash cow. Would have probably been $$$$ about 10 years ago.

6/6/2010 8:56:02 PM

those fuckers are getting rained out

6/6/2010 10:31:49 PM

I enjoyed it. Definitely a lot of girls out there (for you single and cheating men and/or lesbian women out there...)

It sprinkled... It wasn't bad.

Now, those 12 year olds dancing the first 20 minutes where a trip... At first I was like "whaa?" But then, after about 2 minutes, I was bored with them.

6/6/2010 10:39:04 PM

i tried to tell them!
