New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys swept through Tacoma

New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys swept through Tacoma last night. Here’s the report from Seattle Weekly photographer Stephen Giang:”While we were tucked away in the photographer’s area, Mr. Schue from Glee walked right by us and I was feeling starstruck for a sec. So. Many. Screaming. Kids. And by “kids” I mean people like our age. Backstreet’s back, ALRIGHT!”Music writer Gwendolyn Elliott also went to the show – here’s her review.Photos by Stephen Giang.Published on July 9, 2011
