New Arrivals

What you'll find here are new arrivals. In other words, updates in my page. I also may post other things here (like news) that don't really fit into any other category, 'kay Captain? There is also a "Current [Events] Links" section. This will include links to BSB news. These links will open a new web browser when you click on it.The most recent things are first. Archive updates are at the bottom...

Wow...it's been SOOOOO long since I've updated this thing. Eversince Geocities did that whole data transfer limit thing, I've lost A LOT of my visitors, and I've been too lazy to move it somewhere else. Finding another freeserver that fits the Backstreet Boat needs isn't as easy as you may think. Since I've been unsuccessful in finding one, I'm seriously considering paid hosting.

I'm gonna be honest. For the next couple of months, this site will still not see any new updates. However, after I settle all this hosting business, a new and improved Backstreet Cruise will be up and running.

Grrrr....my site is very messed up at the moment. Apparently my current host, Geocities, has said my site has exceeded it's transfer for the month. Basically, what that means is that YOU, the captain/visitor, are unable to view certain pages at a certain time. This is a MAJOR inconvenience for both you and me. For this, I'm VERY sorry. I am annoyed with the situation just as much as you might be. I am currently in the process of moving this site to a new host. Please bookmark/link this site using the URL http://www.backstreetcruise.com to ensure that you will reach this site EVERY time whenever or wherever the "boat" may move. Thanx muchly!

As you may know, the Backstreet Boys lost one of their crew members who was on board one of the hijacked planes. Daniel Lee, a carpenter on the crew, was on his way to see his pregnant wife when the incident happened. Instead of cancelling/postponing their tour once again, the boys decided the show must go on and performed the following day in Toronto. Before performing Wednesday night, the Boys had a moment of silence in Lee's honour and in honour of the other victims. The Air Canada Centre was in total silence at that moment.

The Boys performed 3 shows at the Air Canada Centre (on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday). I wasn't at any of them =+( Oh well, maybe next time. Also this week the new single "Drowning" was released on the radio. GOOD NEWS! The lyrics are now up at Lyric Island. However, this is the only thing that has been updated. Most Media files/pictures still don't work. Sorry, but school keeps me busy!

You have a cellphone/mobile? I got this e-mail and thought I'd pass it along to you

PLEASE READ THE WHOLE OF THIS REVISED EMAIL

Hi Webmaster, I was browsing the web and came across your website, one of the best on Backstreet Boys I thought. I work for the piracy commision in London, which is trying to end the copying of music into the form of mobile phone ringtones for mobile phones. We have teamed up with Backstreet Boys, who have allowed us to produce two official Backstreet Boys ringtones which are available to all. Fans just need to call the number below and follow the instructions given on the phone. Once the rintone has been sent to their mobile phone, they are free to send it to as many friends as they wish (in the UK). If you could put a feature about the service on your website, and help Backstreet Boys personally, it would be greatly appreciated. The instructions are as follows;

1. Call 0906 959 2105
2. Follow the instructions given, and enter the following code when asked

Larger than Life 5078
Quit Playing Games 5079
The ringtone will be sent to their phone in seconds

Perhaps you could email your members to let them know about what we are
fighting for?

All who support the cause will be sent a selection of Backstreet Boys
official merchandise as a token of their gratitude

Thanks again,
Guy Hepner
The Piracy Commission
