Backstreet Boys (Like ten years ago!)




Last Sunday Itos, Becs and I went to watch the Backstreet Boys (they should really think of revamping their name to something more age appropriate!! haha) concert. There we met with Mari and Lorraine. Before the concert, we headed to Dominicks (ala2 Giant, Tesco, etc.) to pick up some food for our picnic at the concert grounds. We picked up a whole roast chicken, buns, salad, crackers, hummus, as well as chocolate cake for desert. I must say that we were very satisfied with the food :)

We arrived at about 5 pm. The original plan was to arrive at 4 pm to get a good spot but that didn't work out :P Anyways after we arrived and found a spot to lepak (chill), we spread out a blanket, placed our chairs and food, and began our picnic. At around 7 pm, the concert started with Girlicious as the opening act. They performed for about 20 minutes. After that we were made to wait till about 8 pm when BSB came out to perform.

The funny thing about this concert was that Itos and I only caught a glimpse of the BSB because we were at the lawn sitting area a.k.a. cheap seats where you can't see a thing! Anyways, we had a blast. We sang along to their songs which brought back lots of memories from high school. I remember being in Form 4 (16 years old) when I was pretty much obsessed with the group.

It was a really really fun and enjoyable outing. Great food, great music (some might disagree), and great company..Who could ask for more?
