Backstreet Boys to "open" for Pistons
October 26, 1999

The Backstreet Boys have sold out three nights at The Palace At Auburn Hills in Detroit, and have just announced a fourth appearance at the venue but this time, you won't be hearing the guys crooning "I Want It That Way," "Larger Than Life" and the rest of their hits.

It turns out that the Backstreet Boys are big basketball fans, and the night before they kick off their three-night stand at the Palace, they'll be serving as an opening act of sorts, when they sing the National Anthem before the Detroit Pistons' home opener on November 5.

While the Backstreet Boys are busy fighting off the hordes of screaming fans, the Pistons will be taking on the defending Eastern Conference champions the New York Knicks.

The next three nights, November 6, 7 and 8, will see them returning to performing their usual repertoire at their sold out concerts at the same venue.

Here's the guys' headlining itinerary for the next few weeks:
