Backstreet Boys Sued By Former Stagehand

(from livedaily.com)

The Backstreet Boys are being sued by a former stagehand who claims he was injured by prop used in the group's stage show. The stagehand, Michael Barrett, filed suit last Tuesday (12/15) in Virginia, citing the band with negligence.

The suit stems from an incident on tour where a confetti cannon, used to shoot confetti into the audience, was untied and tumbled, striking Barrett in the head. The suit names another stagehand as a defendant as well. Barrett is seeking $3 million for physical injuries and emotional distress.

The Backstreet Boys are currently finishing work on the follow-up to their massively successful self-titled debut, which currently holds the #5 position on the pop album charts after 70 weeks. The follow-up, tentatively scheduled for release in April of 1999, will be previewed with a single, scheduled for release in late January / early February.
