The Backstreet Boys Give A Little!
The guys & their music make Florida a whole lot brighter!
The sweltering Florida sun got a whole lot hotter when those sizzlin' BACKSTREET BOYS pulled into town. They were back home in Orlando at the Hard Rock Café, leading the effort to rasie money for the victims of this year's devastating tornadoes. KEVIN, BRIAN, HOWIE, AJ & NICK put on a killer fund-rasing concert that brought in $168,000 - which was presented to the state by Hard Rock pres James Berk.

Boys And Their Hair!

Howie, AJ and Nick pose near their tour bus after presenting the generous check to the State's tornado survivors. There's still a few hours 'til showtime - which might explain the guys' various coif choices. Howie's got his shorter these days, and tied back; AJ's sportin' some serious dreads (and funky pilor-style eyewear); and Nick seems to have said, "Yeah right, you'll see my hair after 10 hours on a bus!" - he opted for a fisherman's hat.

Givin' Back!

Howie, Brian and the boys may have been giving something back to the town of Orlando - the town they call home - but the Orlando fans had plenty to give to them! Howie received a teddy bear clutching a rose, while Brian kept his wrapped present a secret. They both look positivly yummy, don't they?

What's Up Kevin?

Looks like BsB head honcho Kevin hears someone calling his name - could it be time for the group's soundcheck? Kevin's always the one who gets the rest of the guys where they need to be, on time.

Thumb's Up For Girl Power!

As the guys set up (and warm up), the fans line up, determined to grab the best seats in the house. One lucky fan who found a place up front used the opportunity to express her undying devotion to Nick. Wonder what his answer was?

The Main Event!

The Boys take to the stage wearing their sylin' brown pin-stripe suits. Nick & the guys love wearing baggy pants and jackets when they're performing - they've gotta be comfy when they break out into their famous & outrageous dance moves.

Nick Cools Down!

Nick takes a break and kicks back some bottled water. Man, it can get seriously brutal under those lights and that hot sun - but nothing dims the boys' love of performing.

"Everybody" On Your Feet!

It's clear Brian likes what he sees as he checks out the audience. He loves it when the crowds sing along to hits like "As Long As You Love Me," "Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)" and the latest smash, "Everybody." (Have you seen the video for "Everybody?" Mild-mannered, genteel Brian plays a snarly werewolf.
