My first memory of BSB was when I was 10 years old in 1996 a classmate was talking about music groups she liked listening to and then she talked about a group called the Backstreet Boys. I thought it was a silly name to be honest, like maybe they were trying too hard to have some sort of tough guy image. That's also what I thought of when I first learned about Nick and AJ.. and now when I hear the "Bad Boy" song I laugh because I know my first impression was so wrong and I also know the boys don't like that song. Anyway, "Quit Playing Games" was the song that made me into a BSB fan for life. Their voices are simply amazing and they can sing about anything, I would buy it and sing along with them. Proud to be a fan of these wonderful men. <3

My favorite memory of BSB has to be the 1st time I ever saw them. I was at high school and actually a very dedicated Boyzone fan.. It was a cold winters evening in London and I accepted a ticked to see Backstreet Boys as a girl at school couldn't go. My Grandad dropped me off at Earle's Court in London and I walked up thinking urghh this wont be anything like a Boyzone concert...hahaha how wrong was I!! ..
We took our seats (Last row at the back) and awaited what I was convinced would be a painful 90 minutes...
Lights went low..... Suddenly Starwars type music started beaming out of the speakers... Everyone was screaming, the atmosphere was electric... Out of nowhere FLEW these GORGEOUS 5 men (and Boy..Nick).. My heart stopped and instantly I was captivated...Couldn't believe what was before my young eyes.. What an incredible show...I was sold..Went home and removed all traces of Ronan Keating and turned my bedroom in to a shrine to these 5 guys from Florida.. Instantly I was OBSESSED...
Well that little girl is now 33.. She has a son named "Nicholas".... I have since moved to Australia and have never missed a Brisbane show. During the NKOTBSB meet and greet I had the opportunity to tell them I was PREGNANT. Rochelle was pregnant with Ava also. My pregnancy was rife with dramas and I managed to tell AJ about them via Instagram.. When I went back to IAWLT tour, I reminded them I was the pregnant one.. The boys halted the meet and greet photo and asked me how everything went.. I have never felt so special and cared for and then being able to tell Nick that my baby's name is Nicholas just was so much fun..
I then went to Vegas in March of this year and dragged in my oversized flag of Australia for the all important photo... My memory of this is the smell of Nicks leather jacket... their over pouring of love and feeling like my world was the most perfect one to be in..
I have made a friend thanks to BSB who is literally my soul mate.. We are coming back to Vegas in February..
I have so many incredible memories of BSB....but to be honest my life has just been one continued happy memory as every step, every milestone has included these beautiful men.

Summer of 1997, (fourteen years old), Quit Playing Games comes on Much Music. Oh man, it's game over from there. Obsession hit hard with audio recordings using my little brothers Fisher Price cassette player, recording and rewatching every single TV appearance from Sabrina the Teenage Witch to MM Intimate and Interactive, dial-up internet stalking using the public library's computers. Yup, the BSB consumed me.

My first memory of Backstreet Boys is when I was 6 and just came out of my endocrinology appointment and a getting in the car and a bsb song coming on the radio
