Official Statement....

Backstreet Boys Postpone Summer Concert Dates The Backstreet Boys have been forced to postpone a series of concert dates starting with their Monday, July 9 show at the Fleet Center in Boston, MA.

This announcement comes as the group reveals that member AJ McLean will immediately undergo a 30-day treatment for his clinical depression which has recently led to anxiety attackes and the excessive consumption of alcohol. A key factor causing this depression is the recent death of McLean's grandmother, with whom he was very close.

In a joint statement, Backstreet Boys Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson said: "It's been suggested that we not be so forthcoming about this situation, as many artists in the industry have in the past, but we feel compelled as a group to be honest with our fans and not let them down. AJ is our firend and our brother and we whole-heartedly support him during this difficult time. Fortunately, AJ has realized he can't solve his problems by himself."

"Because he is unable to be on tour at this time, we are postponing dates and will make them up as soon as we can," the group added. "At the same time we trust that our fans--who've always stood by us--will understand this decision is absolutely necessary in order for AJ to be well. We look forward to seeing all of you on the road soon."

Tickets already purchased for the upcoming postponed shows will be honored for the rescheduled dates. Refunds for any of the concerts will also be made available.
