Backstreet Boys Hit the Road

Backstreet's back alright. The five men, who claim they were "Never Gone," will hit the road this summer to promote their latest album, the first in over four years. All grown-up and rested, the Backstreet Boys, or Backstreet Men shall we say, will begin their tour in boy band heaven, Florida, on July 22. Until September 2nd, the band will trek all over the states, from Georgia to New Jersey, New York to Vermont, Pennsylvania to Kansas and California to Washington, to serenade the crowd with hits such as "Incomplete," which is currently in heavy rotation on radio stations all over the country. But gasp, the reunion tour almost didn't happen. "It's been four years," Nick Carter told Rolling Stone in May. "You don't really know if people are still going to care." The ticket sales indicate the contrary; the tour sold out in minutes, proving that the Backstreet Men were never gone.
