For The Love of Boy Bands, Britney. . .and Ross Perot?!?

1989- New Kids On The Block Concert, Pittsburgh P.A.
2001- Backstreet Boys Concert, Cleveland, OH
2009- Britney Spears Concert, Columbus, OH
2011- Saw them all over again in Dallas, Texas!!

And how did I get tickets to see NKOTBSB and Britney, you ask?

Ross Perot didn’t feel like going.

Yes, lucky for me, that little man that I so desperately wished I was old enough to vote for in 1996 (despite the fact that I proudly wear an elephant on my sleeve. . .) apparently doesn’t like the boy bands.  And I’d be willing to place a safe bet that Britney and Nicki Minaj aren’t uploaded onto any of his playlists either. . .

Fortunately, a girlfriend of mine works for a division of Dell that was previously owned by Mr. Perot himself.  And to this day, tickets at American Airlines Center belong to him and his family.  If he doesn’t want them, they then become available to employees.  Ahh, it’s good to have friends in ticket-getting places Love you Jenny!

Here are a few share-worthy show moments.  






KNOTBSB - Such a great show.  Really.  And not just because Nick Carter is skinny again. The music and dancing were fantastic, and the people watching was downright amazing.  There were more scrunchies in that arena then there were in all of 1987.

And then there’s Britney.  I don’t care what anyone says – that girl puts on one incredible lip-syncing show.  The dancers, the lights and the I’m-right-back-in-the-AOPi-bathroom-getting-ready-for-a-social-music.  Classic.








So here’s a big shout out to Ross.  Thank you for 2 girl's nights and for not appreciating the finer music in life.  And here’s to hoping you aren’t into Kanye either.
