Backstreet Boys Kick Off Sphere Residency With Larger-Than-Life Show in Las Vegas
Backstreet's back, alright. The Backstreet Boys arguably put on their best show yet at Las Vegas' Sphere on Friday, July 11.
You might have thought the Backstreet Boys peaked in the early 2000s, but fans dressed in all white leaving Las Vegas ‘ Sphere Friday night (July 11) would disagree. The Backstreet Boys — Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, AJ McLean and Kevin Richardson — launched into a night of hits with “Larger Than Life,” which was the perfect description of the show they had created. Highlights of the evening at the over-the-top venue included one moment when the gigantic screen showed the men etched in the side of a mountain during “Siberia,” and another when they rose high above the crowd on a ship singing signature song”“I Want It That Way.” It was the perfect blend of spectacle and heart.
