Backstreet Boys To Hit Six Continents In One Day

From http://www.music365.co.uk/autocontent/news_047670.htm
 
BACKSTREET BOYS have announced their intention to undertake a world tour in a single day.

The multi-platinum US boy band are to make appearances in all six continents on November 21, to celebrate the release of their forthcoming �Black And Blue� album. The Boys� Howie Dorough announced the band�s plans to a US radio station.

�It just so happens that Japan is a day ahead because of the time difference so we can cover all six continents on 21 November,� the singer claimed. �We have a huge fan base in America and we are very fortunate to have lots of fans around the world as well so we wanted to do this six continent thing for them.�

Backstreet Boys are not the first band to engage in one day continent hopping. Def Leppard and Geri Halliwell have both undertaken similar jet lag-defying promotional trips in the past.

The new Backstreet Boys� single �Shape Of My Heart� is released on November 6. The release of �Black And Blue� follows on November 21.

Are Backstreet Boys really going global for 'The Kids'? Or is their continent-hopping merely an attempt to milk maximum publicity for the release of their new album? Email us with your thoughts. [email protected]
