The Backstreet Boys may be taking a break from touring but that doesn't mean Howie, Brian, Kevin, Nick and AJ aren't busy.
Howie and his sister Pollyanna are planning their charity concert -- Lupus 2000 -- in honour of their sister, Caroline Dorough Cochran, who died of complications from Lupus in 1998, Launch.com reports.
The benefit will take place in Orlando Florida on June 25 and will feature performances by country singer John Michael Montgomery, A.J. McLean as 'Johnny No Name', and a few surprise guests. Howie and Pollyanna will also perform "Fly To Heaven" at the benefit. The two also hope to release the song as a single.

In more Backstreet news, Howie, Nick and Kevin recently spent time in the Bahamas to enjoy the sun and start writing and listening to music written by other songwriters for their next album.
While the three were relaxing, Brian and his fiancee, Leighanne Wallace, were mobbed in Atlanta, The Washington Post reports.
Brian and Leighanne were shopping for pool-party supplies in an Atlanta Kmart when they were surrounded by excited fans.
