It’s A Backstreet Boys World

Touring in support of their 2013 album In A World Like This, AJ McLean, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, Kevin Richardson and Nick Carter have proven beyond a doubt that there is life for ’90s boy bands in the new millennium.  Whether appearing as the evening’s headliner or joining forces with New Kids On The Block, Backstreet Boys have shown plenty of drawing power for filling those seats.

Of course, having Lavigne appear on the upcoming U.S. shows is an added draw.

“We really wanted to put together a great show and do our best to give everyone their money’s worth,” Littrell said. “Avril is an unbelievably talented artist who’s a perfect fit to make these shows extra special for our fans.”
