The highly successful New Kids on the Block/Backstreet Boys tour and the development of rising rising singer/songwriter Amos Lee will be the focus of two separate “Road Cases” sessions at the 8th annual Billboard Touring Conference, set for New York Nov. 9-10.
“NKOTBSB: Anatomy of a Home Run” will break down the trek that uniquely combined the pop supergroups New Kids On the Block and Backstreet Boys in a ground-breaking co-headlining tour that moved more than 500,000 tickets and emerged as one of the sleeper tours of 2011. The unique staging and presentation, which fully integrated the hits and performances of both groups, changed the paradigm for co-headlining tours. Key players will discuss the strategic moves in the set-up, launch, and execution of one of the most creative tour concepts in pop music history, including Peter Katsis/Prospect Park, manager, Backstreet Boys; Jared Paul/AGPS, manager, NKOTB; actor/singer Donnie Wahlberg, NKOTB; Darryl Eaton, agent, Creative Artists Agency; and Brad Wavra, VP, Live Nation.

Paul (musicagent123) on twitter who for those who don’t know has been setting up dates for the European leg of the NKOTBSB tour. According to Paul they could not fit dates in either Portugal or Spain.
musicagent123 NKOTBSB, NO Spain and NO Portugal. Sorry, there was just no space to fit it all in and do Australia as well. Boo
The reason as why there is no dates for either country is unknown. But I think it’s due to scheduling. As Paul stated before on his twitter it’s been hard setting up the dates. I’ll keep you posted on when there’s more info on the European leg of the NKOTBSB tour.

Recently a new song by Backstreet Boys “Lost in Space” surfaced on the internet. No one knows where it came from, if it’s new (which to us it seems it is) or a old track. Although it is possible to have been recorded during the NKOTBSB tour as they have mentioned to have recorded some songs during the tour. Many sources like MTV are claiming it’s a new single. Which we don’t know if it is or not. The guys will work on the new album soon. Whatever the case is the song is a fun dance track that easily get’s stuck in your head.
Take a listen to it over at MTV.com
