MAD RESPECT!!!

As many of you know, a few months back our guys were in talks with NKOTB & The Backstreet Boys to join their stadium tour earlier this summer. But to the surprise of many, the guys were told "No Thank You" by the Backstreet Boys, and the tour went on without our guys. Meanwhile NKOTB (spearheaded by Donnie Whalberg) was doing everything in its power to get our guys on the tour.

So finally after ALL of Whalberg's HARD WORK and persuasion, our guys were invited to appear as the special guest at a SOLD-OUT Orlando Arena late last month and the crowd went CRAZY!!!!!! Performing last, our guys entered from underneath the stage to the countdown of "Uhh Ahh" and then they went right into the classic bridge of "MotownPhilly." Next, the guys sang a section of "I'll Make Love to You" followed by the R&B anthem "End Of The Road." Everyone was singing every song at the top of their lungs! NKOTB & BSB came down and joined the guys to sing End of the Road to close out. Donnie was dancing around the stage like a big kid...excited that the guys were so well received and that he was the one that ultimately convinced BSB to have our guys join them!

Nathan: I told Donnie, "Thanks for everything and thanks for all the hard work you put into making this happen."

Donnie: "You guys sold over 60 million records, don't thank me, you guys deserve to be in arenas like this. This is where you're supposed to be! EVERY NIGHT!"

It's not often we get that type of respect in this business anymore so guys, please send out special tweets to the guys from NKOTB..... they REALLY LOOKED OUT for YOUR BOYZ!!!!!!!!!!
