NKOTBSB - Really No Joke

This past Thursday I went to the New Kids On The Block / Backstreet Boys (NKOTBSB) show at the Air Canada Centre. Yes me Lori Muma at NKOTBSB. I can't believe it either. Duran Duran was my "boy" band as a girl growing up. Only they were grown men at the time who played their own instruments and wrote their own songs, but I'm going off topic.
First off I need to thank my friend Jillian S for inviting me to this. To say I am not a fan of these bands is an understatement. So my expectation's was really really low.

It started with graphics introducing the band. We saw various ways to spell out NKOTBSB. I believe a "B' is missing, but that would be too long to fist pump too. Then we saw pictures of the guys with there names behind them. This was 10 minutes of nothing, but to determine what boy got the loudest screams from the women. Then all 9 appear on the stage doing a take on Coldplay's Viva La Vida. So far I'm not impressed.

As the show continued, I kept thinking of an episode of The Simpsons I saw, with Mick Jagger at Rock Camp going  "no matter what, wherever you are ,say its the wildest town ever to play"  Between the 9 of them, they must have said "Toronto is the best, Toronto,we love you. Toronto, Toronto...." at least 150 times in a 2 hour show. Yeah I get it. I know where I am. Thanks.

New Kids would play a song, then BSB would sing a song. Women would scream like 13 year old girls again. That is how it went. A nice man in the seat in front of us, gave me a Häagen-Dazs, so that was a highlight. They sang songs I didn't know, they sang other people's songs that pissed me off  and wore either all white outfits or bedazzled basketball Jerseys. I would upload some of these gems of pictures, but they keep crashing my computer. Fitting

They took time to introduce themselves (??) , all 9 of then and that took 15 min, they brought up something about Toronto (again) and the confetti flew and it was over.

Did I hate it? No, the stage was nice, the sound was clear, they loved Toronto. I love confetti and anything bedazzled.
I'm I downloading there music - no chance in hell.
