Deutsch­land ist ein Boygroup‐​Land: Junge Mäd­chen sind Fans aktu­el­ler Boy­groups, die nicht mehr ganz so jun­gen Mäd­chen nut­zen eben­falls jede Chance, ihren ehe­ma­li­gen Teenie‐​Idolen zuzu­ju­beln. Und eine sol­che Gelegenheit bie­tet sich am 9. Mai in der Ham­bur­ger O2‐​Arena, wenn „NKOTBSB“, der Zusam­men­schluss der „New Kids on the Block“ und der „Back­street Boys“ gemein­sam alte und neue Hits sin­gen werden.

Mit ins­ge­samt mehr als 200 Mil­lio­nen Plat­ten und zahl­lo­sen aus­ver­kauf­ten Shows welt­weit gehören New Kids on the Block und die Back­street Boys zu den erfolg­reichs­ten Pop‐​Acts aller Zei­ten, jetzt begeis­tern sie die Fans gemein­sam. Ein Überraschungsauftritt 2010 als NKOTBSB in New York stellte die Wei­chen für ein gemeinsames Erfolgs‐​Projekt. Seit Beginn des Jah­res tou­ren sie unun­ter­bro­chen, die Nach­frage ist rie­sig, ihre Tickets zählten in den USA zu den „hei­ßes­ten Tickets des Som­mers“ (OK! Maga­zin). NKOTBSB sind erwach­sen gewor­den, aber ohne auch nur einen Hauch ihrer jugend­li­chen Ener­gie und Aus­strah­lung ver­lo­ren zu haben. Immer noch brin­gen sie die Hal­len mit neuen Songs und alten Smash‐​Hits zum kochen und ste­hen 2012 end­lich auch wie­der in Europa auf der Bühne. Die Fans können sich auf eine Show der Extra­klasse freuen, bei der die New Kids on the Block genauso wie die Back­street Boys natürlich ihre größten Hits per­for­men wer­den und auch der gemein­same Song „Don’t turn out the Lights“ nicht feh­len darf.

Nick Car­ter (BSB): „Europa ist für die Back­street Boys wie ein zwei­tes Zuhause, daher sind wir alle sehr auf­ge­regt, unsere Show end­lich zu unse­ren Fans dort zu brin­gen. NKOTBSB wird inter­na­tio­nal!“ und Don­nie Wahl­berg (NKOTB) fügt hinzu: „Wir haben solch enga­gierte Fans, die immer wie­der zu unse­ren Shows kom­men. Unsere inter­na­tio­na­len Fans flie­gen seit Jah­ren in die USA, um uns dort zu sehen, jetzt kom­men wir zu ihnen.“

Mark claims he was scheduled to be on one of the Boston-to-Los Angeles flights that crashed into the twin towers, but cancelled his ticket a few days before the tragedy struck.

[ NKOTB ] How The NKOTB Changed The Super Bowl Halftime Show Forever

Back in the early days of the Super Bowl, the halftime show resembled that of most college football games, a marching band. Super Bowl I featured the marching bands from the University of Arizona and Grambling State University. And for the first 20 years, that is all the halftime show was.

And then, in 1987, for Super Bowl XXI, George Burns and some Disney Characters were added to the mix and the halftime show became more of a show.

But it wasn’t until Super Bowl XXV in 1991 that the halftime show became an event. That was when New Kids on the Block performed. Yes, the New Kids. And the Super Bowl halftime show has never been the same.

On the next few pages, we will take a walk through the evolution of the halftime show with a look at the more notable moments…
