My 'Now or Never 2003 Tour' concert review from the Vanderbilt concert in Plainview, NY on Feb. 22

Hi guys! Well I finally got the time to write up my review from Nicks concert in NY. Let me just say he ROCKED!!! It was amazing, the best concert I've been to, so much energy, it was great. Ok let me start from the beginning. So I got there at like 1pm, and there were already fans there. I would say about a good 20 fans. My friend got there earlier then me and I saw here going back to her spot and I called her, so told me to come up with her, and of course I did. She said they were gonna try to get in and c nick, so I was like 'include me in!' LOL. I told my dad to stay outside and hold our spots for us, while we went inside. As we walked guess who was standing right there!!..... yup Nick! I was like 'holy shit' we were a group of seven and no one but me noticed it was nick. I told my friend and she was lookin at the guy that was with Nick, and I was like 'Not him, the one standing in front of him.... ITS NICK!' One of the grls that was with us freaked out, (not a very good idea) he turned around and saw here, and had the 'omg I think I better go' look in his face, I wanted to go up to him, but I figured they would kick me out, and plus as soon as he saw the grl that screamed he headed upstairs... so we go inside the restaurant and like 2 mins. lata Nick walks in. I was sooo HAPPY! He was wearing these camouflage pants, I dont remember wut color shirt and a white hat on backwards. He looks really cute! Like always... anywaz we saw him walk in and I wanted to go seat near him and that stupid manager sat me and my friends all the way on the other side of the restaurant I was like 'wuts up with that!' Ugh I was soo mad. We took 4eva to order, I wasnt hungry... how can n e one be hungry knowing that Nick is in the same room as u!!' my friend was so she ordered, I was too busy looking to c wut Nick was doing. Anywaz.... my friends r eating and Im still tryin to get a glimpse of Nick, he finishes and walked ova to the table right next to ours and talked to this grl for like Idk a min or so, and then came ova to my table and was like 'Hey wuts up!' and inside Im like 'OMG!!!!' I said 'hi Nick' and he was like 'Catch ya lata' and I gettin my camera cos I wanted to take a quick pic with him, but his bodyguard said Nick couldn't take n e pics, grrrrr.... I was soooo upset. Well Nick walked into the bar and I didnt c him anymore. He bodyguard came back and I called him ova and I started talkin to him, hes really nice and was kinda funny. I told him that I wanted to take a picture with Nick and he said he was sry he had 2 say no, its that Nick needed to get upstairs to his room, he was sick and stuff and I was like wuteva! LOL. I told him that if I was outside afta the show, and there werent alot of fans, if he could help me out in taking a pic with Nick, he said yes that he would, only if there werent alot of fans there. Well it didnt happen there were alot of fans.... oh well, at least Nick said hi to me, that made my day, and I got 2 hear must of he sound check. Well I went back outside and waited till 7:30, they let us in and a ran upstairs, to my surprise there were lot of fans already up there, I was sooo MAD. I pushed me way in, and this grl standing next to me said I was pushing, OK... y would I push to the side!! I was like wuteva... her friend hit me and... there rest is not even worth remembering. Allz I know is that she ended up in the back! HAHA!! I was in the front and it was sooo hot in there, I thought I was gonna pass out! Vi3 came out and they were really good! I like their performance, Justin and Lucas r really cute...anywaz, I like them and Justincase, I was really into it. They took 4eva to get Nick onstage, during the opening acts I saw Bob up through these windows, anywaz it was passed 10, and Aaron came out and introduced Nick on stage, Nick came out and he started singing 'Grls in the USA' I was sooo HAPPY I luv that song. He was like 'Ladies its gettin really hot in here' and he took off his sweater. He spit out his water and it landed all ova me! I was like 'OK.... thankx Nick' Well I was happy Nick wet me 4 times with really cold water, which felt good, cos it was really hot in there. Nick was amazing!! He had so much energy and I gave him alot of credit for all that jumpin around and everything... being sick and all. He sang that 'Not like You' song, I luved it. He also sang 'Wanna Shout' I was like 'yes!' I luved his performance, he wsa really good. This little grl got to go up on stage and give him this teddy bear that said "I luv you' on it and Nick took it and was like 'Its actually true, I do Luv u' HES THE BEST! LOL. When 'Help Me' was coming up he was sayin stuff like: can someone help me, I cant remember the song, of course everyone was screamin 'Help Me' cheesy but good. He introduced his band during the song. He danced the robot thing, wuteva its called, he looked GREAT!! He Was sweatin like crazy. He sang 'DIHTCFY' sitting down, I luved it. He sounded tired but still good. He throw 3 towels to the crowd and I think 3 water bottles if not 2. He played the guitar a couple of times, which I loved! HE ROCKED!! Seriously he put on an amazing show!! I would go again and again if I could. I bought a tour shirt and poser....35 bucks! I had a great time!!! Nick was really GOOD, AMAZING, everything. It was insane in there, but still I had a great time.

Hey guys!

Well as I posted before on the site, I went to see Nick and omg what an experience! It wasn’t the first time that I met Nick so to speak, I got his autograph back in May of this year, when he was at the CBS plaza in NYC with Aaron, if you can call that meeting them… anywaz… heres my story LOL :)

Nick was at Macys last Monday, the 28th, and I went, I skipped skool and I flow my aunt all the way from Puerto Rico so she can take me… I was up at the employees entrance all day waiting for the production manager to help me meet him… cos they didn’t have any more VIP passes left, (well to my surprise they still had a couple left early in the morning, but I didn’t know,) the manger never called me back (asshole). So I went down to where Nick was supposed to be, I found this security guard who was Spanish, and he was so sweet, he told me to stand next to him, cos when Nick finished he was gonna come out throw there, so I stayed, he tried to get me a pass, but couldn’t , BUT he did get my picture that I wanted Nick to sign to him, and Nick signed it to me! OMG I was so happy, well when Nick finally finished he came out and I got to touch he’s hand, and he said ‘hi!’. Afterwards, I went to his hotel and waited for him there. When I arrived he was already there, but he was supposed to come back out at 9:30 pm to go to Z100. When he came out, I completely froze! I couldn’t believe he was standing right in front of me! Well, he signed another poster for me and he said that he was gonna be back in an hour , to chill there and he’ll be back. When he was walking to the van, a bunch of fans, me included walked with him. (He wasn’t feeling well, poor baby!) They were all saying things to him like ‘hows your dad?’ and this fan told him that she loved Aaron too. I have no idea y! LOL So then he left. I was so mad cos my aunt got to give Nick a kiss and I completely froze. So when he left I walked into this deli, and they had Z100 on, so I got to hear the interview with Nick, when it finished I walked back to the hotel to wait for him… well Nick didn’t get back in an hour, I would go with he came back in like an hour and a half or sumein’. When he did I was ready! I was telling myself not to freeze!!! So when he was walking back into the hotel, I told him if I could give him a kiss, and he just stood there very still, so I could! I wrapped my arms around him and gave him a BIG KISS!! HEHE THAT MADE MY DAY!! When he was walking up he turned around and said he had to go, cos 2morrow was a big day, he said he felt like it was New Years! After he walked in, from the end of the hotel hall, he turned and stood there with this sad face on, looking at all us fans outside and he waved again! He is SUPER SWEET! When I got back home it was 3:30 in the morning. The next morning ,the big day, Oct. 29! I woke up sick! NICK FEVER!!! Either I got sick from being outside all night, or I caughted what Nick had! HEHE. So I couldn’t go see him that day, but I listened to his new CD all day!! I was so upset that I couldn’t go see him, that my mom said she would take me to go see him at Toys R Us next Tuesday!!!

TOYS R US

This Tuesday when Nick was at Toys R US, I got to met him again!! I was so HAPPY! My mom felt bad cos I couldn’t go see him last Tuesday when he was at TRL, cos I was sick… and she took me. I had to go to skool, I needed to take 3 major test that day, before the end of the quarter, well all day I was so upset, I thought she wasn’t going to bring, my mom couldn’t get out of work, and when I called her turning my lunch period, I convinced her to do anything to get out of work and bring me, she noticed how upset I was so she said YES! HEHE My friends where all sayin I was crazy to get out of skool just to go see Nick, well ANYTHING FOR NICK! LOL, my mom picked me up and I rushed into my house and into be room, got changed and got everything I needed, we made it just in time for the train,. When we got there it was packed! OVER 500 FANS WHERE THERE!! I had called in 2 weeks before to see if we needed to buy or get passes to met him, and they told me no, but to my surprise WE DID! I was so mad! I was trying to get a pass, but couldn’t. I needed one to go up to the 3rd floor to met him. Nick came out on the 1st floor first and I got to get a look at him from a far, these guys that where in front of me, let me go in front of them, so I could see better. Well Nick sang Karaoke and talked about the J-14 contest with the Singing Star Machine thing,. He sang Linkin Park, if I can remember right, I was too busy trying to get to the front! Anywaz… when he left the ppl with passes needed to make a line, so they could go up stairs. I got in the line, making pretend I had a pass, while for my luck, this guy that my dad made friends with when he took me to see Nick back in May was there with his son… becos of the huge line his son didn’t want to make the line and his wife came to the back of the line where I was and asked if anyone wanted a pass! My mom grabbed the pass, and said she would pay so I could keep the pass, the lady said she didn’t have to and I got to keep the pass, the guy remembered me so he was happy that I got the pass (God Bless Him), There were only 500 passes and I was number 477! I made the line and got to go up! When my turn to go up to him came, I almost fainted! He is so HOT!!!!! OMG HE GETS HOTTER BY THE MINUITE! I said hi and I forgot what I wanted to tell him ( I GET SO MAD AT MYSLEF) I just can’t think right with him in front of me! I told him that I loved him sooo much! And if he was going back to the hotel, he started laughing and said no. He signed my CD and then said bye and I told him again that I loved him! He looked so HOT! They didn’t allow pictures so I could take a picture of him seating there, I was a little mad cos of that, but at least I got to met him again! OMG for those ppl who say he’s fat! They r sooo wrong! He is even hotter in person, even my mom said he was gorgeous! I get down stairs and went outside to wait for him to leave the store! When he did he waved from inside that car and left. OMG Those are the most WONDERFULLEST DAYS OF MY LIFE!!!! He is so gorgeous! And I don’t think he could be any sweeter!! I’m so happy! PLUS I got tickets to see him and Aaron at WBLI’s Winter Jam 2002 on Dec. 2!!!! AND I met Eve while I was waiting for Nick back at his hotel last Monday!

Well thats my story!! I took pics of him on Monday the 28th, I will post them 2morrow! And this grl, Amy, got ot meet Nick too!! She e-mailed me her encounter, she wanted to share it with me at every1 else, so her story is right below! Plz read it, its really good! ENJOY!!! :)

Meeting Nick

This Encounter was sent to me by: Amy

I met Nick at Macy's in NYC on 10/28/02. I go to school in Florida and my family lives in NJ. My mom had gotten VIP passes to meet Nick. She was originally gonna go for me but then I thought I should fly up to NYC to meet him. I had two days to get an airline ticket so luckily there was a cheap flight from Orlando to La Guardia airport. I got to NY on 10/26 and spent the weekend with my mom. We went into NYC on monday and got to Macy's at about 4pm. We waited in line for an hour and Z100 radio station was doing a contest before Nick appeared. Someone had to name a Madonna song and I said "Don't Tell Me" and I won a tee shirt. The DJ brought out Nick and all the girls started screaming. I was so excited and in shock to see him up front. I was writing a term paper about Nick Carter going solo and I wanted to give him my paper and a pic of me personally. The security guard wouldn't let me give him anything so he took my paper and put it with the rest of the gifts for Nick. I saw that Nick's eyes kept looking at me and I was blushing. The girl in front of me asked me to take a picture of her and Nick together. So I did and I could see that he was really looking at me. I had to give my camera to the security before I got up to Nick. He asked what my name was and I said Amy. He signed my picture to Amy love Nick forever with a heart around it. I told him that I wrote a term paper about him but security took. He said to stop by TRL tomorrow and to bring my friends. He then gave me a hug and kiss and said "I love you." I kissed him on the cheek too. I wanted a picture of us but security wouldn't allow it. My mom then met him and had Nick sign the picture to my sister. My mom and I agreed that he is the sweetest person in the world. I waited until the event was over to see him one last time. He came out with his security guards shaking all the girls hands and I even touched his hand a little bit. The girls started chasing after him and I even followed along with it. One of the cops tried to grab me and I said get off me I'm trying to get out of here. Nick went out the side door and into the van. It was worth flying all the way from Florida just to get a hug and kiss and hearing him say "I love you." Later on that night I was so emotional because I met my favorite person in the world. I know I will see him again without the other 300 girls. I would like to get to know Nick as a person because he is really sweet and down to earth.

I went to TRL the next day but I couldn't get upstairs because it was overbooked. Fortunately there was a camera crew downstairs and Hilary the VJ was there. I was on camera a couple of times and my dad saw the show and said I was on tv more than the people upstairs. Two girls from downstairs got to go up because they had Nick written all over their faces. Nick then came out to the audience and the fans got to ask him questions. My favorite was when he said that he takes a hot bath naked before he goes to sleep. He then came to the window and I was screaming for him. He is the sexiest man in the world. He then had a signing at Virgin Records across the street. I couldn't go because I had to catch my flight back to Florida. This was the best weekend of my life. The album is awesome and I listen to it non stop. My two favorite songs are Girls in the USA and Miss America. Girls in the USA sounds like Def Leopards Pour Sugar on me which has a rock beat and that what I like. It also mentions Jersey girl in the song and that's where I'm from. The lyrics in Miss America is revealing when he says "Take it off, take it off/ Let's get it on, get it on" which gives me the chills.

I hope that Nick read my term paper and was impressed with it. I hope he comes to Orlando soon so I can see him perform. I'm glad that he put out a solo album because I know it's something he's wanted to do for a while. I can't wait to see him again and hopefully I'll get to talk to him more without all the security guards being jerks. I hope everyone likes the album. KTBSPA

More Nick Encounters

I wasn't able to post this story for a while, I wanted a special page for all the Nick encounters, but I haven't had the time... So I decited to post it now! Enjoy

This encounter was send to me by: Jill

Hello All:

I thought that I would share with you my BSB experience with you all. This happened last June on their Black and Blue World tour. Local radio stations were having all kind of contest ever since it was announced that the Backstreet Boys were coming to Connecticut. It had been about 3 years since they came to our state, so this was a pretty big deal. My radio station was having the best contest! You had to be the tenth caller when you heard one of the boys voice. If you were the tenth caller who automatically won two tickets to the show and you were then qualified for the grand prize. The grand prize was, you would be in the photo pit for the first two songs, front row seats, and backstage passes!! I was glued to the radio. I kept on calling in and I always got a busy tone. But finally I got through. I heard Brian's voice and I hit the redial button (I preprogrammed it in there!!..hehe). First I got a busy signal and they I hit the redial button again and got through. Finally I was going to a BSB concert and may have the chance to meet them. This had happened on a Tuesday night and the grand prize would be drawn on Friday....those couple of days were the longest days. Friday finally came. I was sitting in my room with the phone in my hand. The phone rang...and guess who it was...the radio station! They said I won the grand prize. I was just so excited..(I had on of those over excited moments!) Keep in mind that this contest was held at the end of May so I had a month before the concert. Again, those days up to the concert felt soo long. But finally the day had arrived. I didn't sleep the night before. The morning of the concert I went to go and get my hair done. Finally it was time for me and my friend to leave for the show. We were just so excited. The ride there wasn't that bad, long then usual though..LoL.. We got there and we were give our tickets and our meet and greet passes and I was given my photo pass! We hung around the venue place for a bit and then we were escorted to the meet and greet. As I was standing in line waiting for our turn I was so nervous and excited. Our turn had arrived. I walked up to them with a nice smile and me and my friend each got a hug and a kiss. For me Nick was the best. He smelled so good and he is so tall! Unfortunately we weren't allowed to bring in gifts, but oh well next time I will give it to him. After the meet and greet we went to our seats, which were front row center stage! Watch Krystal for a bit and then I was escorted to the photo pit area. I was so close and it was awesome! Wish I could have had been there for the whole show. I then went back to my seat which was right behind the pit area and watch the show. It was amazing!! The show was great!! I had a special moment with Nick that I will never forget. So there it is! Hope ya all enjoyed reading this. Take good care and Keep The Backstreet Pride Alive!
