New Kids, Backstreet Boys plan NC show

New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys -- which collaborated on a show-stealing performance for "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest" last weekend -- won't make a visit to Charlotte in 2011.

But the two iconic groups will perform just up I-85 at Greensboro Coliseum on Saturday, July 23, one of 16 new dates added to their "NKOTBSB Tour."

Tickets go on sale Saturday, Jan. 15 at LiveNation.com, the Greensboro Coliseum box office, Ticketmaster or charge-by-phone at 800-745-3000.

NKOTBSB?? Is that New Kids On The Back Street Boys? They may want to rethink that. Oh well, Don't Ask; Don't Tell.

Charlotte, you'll never be world class as long as you can't draw such "big name acts" to play here. But I did hear that RuPaul will be passing through in '11.

Saw BSB in Greensboro back in 2001! Can't wait to see them again! (Also saw them in Raleigh, Milwaukee and Portland too... but that's besides the point!)

You've seen the Backstreet Boys four times? I don't blame you for wanting to remain anonymous.

Excuse me! NKOTBSB will be an EPIC concert. Charlotte is one hundred time better in every way than Greensboro, don't hate.

Dear Karla, I've seen them more than that, however didn't want to have to list ALL the places I've seen them. However, I have also met them and hung out with one of them for a week. :o) I enjoy the entertainment of the shows. Hmmm, might need to reconnect with my Boy too. And I post as anonymous because its just easy to do.
