Backstreet Boys: Show 'Em What You're Made Of Page #7

---

WE HAD TOPLESS BOWLING.

THAT WAS FUN.

THE GIRLS, REMEMBER THE GIRLS

ON THE BALL RETURNS?

- AHA, STRADDLING THE--

- JUST BOWLING AND--

YEP, WE WOULD JUST CALL

THE GIRLS OVER AFTERWARDS

AND THEY'D COME BY,

AND THEY'D JUST STRIP.

AND DO A LITTLE BIT OF THA - THEY WOULD DO THAT, BUT--

- PRETTIER.

PRETTIER:

AND WITH GIANT B*OBS.

WHATEVER!

YOU DON'T HAVE BIG B*OBS,

SO IT DOESN'T WORK.

WHEE!

THAT'S SUPER FUN.

YOU KNOW, LIKE THOSE CLAW

VENDING MACHINES,

WE WON A BRITNEY SPEARS

DOLL OUT OF THERE.

- WELL, I WON.

- HE WON IT AND THEN--

YOU PROBABLY SPENT LIKE

$100 ON IT.

I SPENT A DOLLAR

AND I WON IT.

AND I WANTED TO BOWL HIM

FOR IT.

AND I GOT YOU ANNIHILATED

BY THE FIFTH FRAME.

'CAUSE I CAN'T DRINK

AND BOWL.

- IT'S THE ONLY THING THAT'S--

- AND I HAD A SHO AND I KIND OF THREW UP

A LITTLE BIT BACK IN THE CUP

BUT I STILL FINISHED I WITH A LITTLE BIT OF PUKE

AND BECAUSE OF THAT,

HE COULD NEVER DO SHOTS

EVER AGAIN.

- I THREW UP.

- YOU THREW UP LATER.

NO, NO, NO, I THREW UP

IN THE CUP, AND YOU DRANK THAT.

- OH, IS THAT WHAT IT WAS?

- YES, THAT'S WHAT--

IF IT WAS JUST YOU PUKED

THEN I COULD THEN-- THAT'S FINE.

- OH, SORRY.

- I THREW UP IN THE CUP

- AND THAT WASN'T-- THAT WAS--

- THAT'S A TWIST.

A.J. WANTED TO BE

THIS BAD BOY SO BADLY.

I THINK IN HIS OWN MIND,

HE THOUGHT HE WAS ROCK AND ROLL

NOT REALIZING:

HE WAS IN A BOY BAND.

HOW'S EVERYBODY RIGHT DOWN

IN THE FRONT?!

TO ME THAT WAS:

THE ONLY TOUR:

I EVER DRANK ON STAGE

DURING THE SHOW:

I WAS AT MY WORS AT THAT POINT.

YOU IN THE--

I THINK HE WAS REBELLING

AGAINST THIS FACADE

THAT PEOPLE THOUGHT WE WERE

AND THOUGHT WE HAD TO BE.

I LOST SIGHT OF MYSELF,

WHICH IS VERY EASY TO DO

WHEN YOU'RE IN A GROUP.

YOU LOSE YOURSELF.

YOU LOSE YOUR IDENTITY.

IN BOSTON, IN 2001,

WE WERE SUPPOSED TO DO

THE FIRST PITCH:

AT THIS SOFTBALL GAME,

OR BASEBALL GAME

UM, AND SING

THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

I GET A CALL FROM

OUR ROAD MANAGER

THAT A.J. IS NOT COMING.

I WAS IN WHAT PEOPLE

IN THE DRUG WORLD

WOULD CALL A COKE COMA,

'CAUSE I'D JUST BEEN UP

FOR DAYS ON END:

AND I JUST NEEDED TO SLEEP.

KEVIN, IN KEVIN'S KEVIN WAY

DID NOT LIKE THAT VERY MUCH.

HE WON'T ANSWER HIS PHONE,

HE WON'T ANSWER HIS DOOR.

SO I BACKED UP AND...

BUSTED IT OPEN,

I WAS AS MAD AS HELL.

KEVIN CAME TO THE OTHER DOOR

WHICH WAS DOUBLE BOLTED

AND I TRIED TO BUST THA THING IN

AND I COULDN' GET IN THERE.

UH, BUT I'M GLAD

THAT I DIDN'T.

I'M GLAD I DIDN' 'CAUSE I WAS MAD.

I WAS ABOUT TO BEA THE SH*T OUT OF HIM,

BUT I WAS MAD.

TO THIS DAY, I WILL FOREVER

BE GRATEFUL TO KEVIN

BEING THE REASON WHY

I EVEN WENT INTO REHAB.

YOU KNOW, HE'S THE ONE

THAT MADE THAT INTERVENTION.

HE'S THE ONE THAT BROKE DOWN

MY HOTEL ROOM DOOR

AND EXCHANGED THE WORDS

THAT WE EXCHANGED

THAT WERE NOT NICE.

YOU KNOW, I MEAN,

I'LL NEVER FORGET HIM

SAYING, "YOU ARE DEAD TO ME."

THAT WAS IT.

I GOT A.J. OVER HERE

NEXT TO ME:

PULLED UP IN IS HOT ROD.

HE THINKS HE'S A RAPPER,

I THINK.

AND...

STRAIGHT LINE.

HEY!

I'LL BE IN THE LINE

BEHIND A.J. RIGHT.

- TAKE A MENTAL NOTE.

- I'M TRYING TO GET THERE.

YOU KNOW,

NOBODY TELLS YOU WHAT TO DO

WHEN YOU GET TO THE TOP.

EVERYBODY IS SO QUICK

TO PUSH, PUSH, PUSH,

TO GET YOU THERE,

BUT THEY'RE NOT QUICK

TO HOLD YOU THERE.

THEY JUST WANNA:

YOU KNOW WHAT?

NEXT.

YOU KNOW,

AFTER WE LOST KEVIN,

EVERYBODY THOUGH IT WAS OVER,

EVEN THOUGH THE FOUR OF US

KEPT GOING.

WE DID TWO ALBUMS.

WE DID THREE TOURS.

BUT FOR ME, PERSONALLY,

IT WAS JUST NEVER THE SAME.

LOOKING DOWN THE LINE

ON STAGE,

YOU SEE JUST THREE OTHER GUYS,

IT WAS JUST NEVER RIGHT.

YEAH,

GO TO THE RHYTHM.

OBVIOUSLY, THERE'S ALWAYS

GONNA BE DOUBTS AND FEARS.

I MEAN, THIS IS NOT JUS A REGULAR TOUR.

THIS IS A BIG DEAL.

NOW THAT WASN'T RIGHT.

THAT RIGHT THERE--

BRINGING BACK:

SOME OF THE OLD CHOREOGRAPHY

WE HAVEN'T DONE IN

15-PLUS YEARS.

YOU KNOW,

IT'S NERVE-RACKING.

I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER

THE BEGINNING FORMATION.

RIGHT HERE.

- YO, MAN.

YOU... OUT.

WE GOT IT.

DON'T WORRY,

I'LL BE SWEET WITH YOU,

BUT I GOT TO BE HARD

WITH YOUR DADDY, OKAY.

YOU GUYS, ANY QUESTIONS

BEFORE WE MOVE ON?

YEAH.

IT'S JUST LITTLE DETAILS.

KEVIN HASN'T BEEN ON STAGE

WITH US IN OVER SEVEN YEARS.

I'VE HAD TWO KNEE SURGERIES.

AND THEN DEALING WITH

PROBABLY THE BIGGEST ISSUE NOW,

WHICH IS BRIAN.

BUT WE DON'T LIKE TO TALK

ABOUT IT.

AND I DON'T THINK HE LIKES

TO TALK ABOUT IT VERY MUCH.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TAKING

THIS THING AROUND THE WORLD.

IT'S NOT JUST 30,

40 SHOWS AND THAT'S IT.

I MEAN, THIS IS GONNA BE 80

TO 100-SOMETHING SHOWS OVERALL.

WE'VE DONE TOURS BEFORE

IN LESS AMOUNT OF TIME.

BUT FOR SOME REASON,

I'M A LITTLE SCARED MYSELF

THAT WE'LL STILL BEHIND

THE 8 BALL.

TIME-WISE,

ARE WE BEHIND RIGHT NOW?

ARE WE ON PAR:

THE WAY YOU GUYS ARE?

I'M NOT GONNA, YOU KNOW,

SUGARCOAT ANYTHING.

- WE ARE BEHIND.

- OKAY.

WE ONLY HAVE 14 DAYS

OF REHEARSAL LEFT.

I'M HERE TO F***ING REHEARSE

WHATEVER.

- OKAY.

- ALL RIGHT, BABY?

- ALL RIGHT.

- I'M HERE.

JUST MAKING SURE BECAUSE

WE'RE F***ING LOSING TIME.

LOOK, I'M HERE, BABY.

I'M HERE.

WAIT, WAIT,

HOLD ON, LISTEN.

REHEARSING SATURDAYS,

EVERY SATURDAY.

LIKE, WE WERE GONNA

HAVE WEEKENDS OFF,

NOW WE GOT TO REHEARSE

EVERY SATURDAY.

I WAS ALREADY PREPARED FOR THAT.

WE'RE SO FAR BEHIND,

IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY,

AND IT'S DISAPPOINTING

AND IT'S FRUSTRATING

AND IT PISSES ME OFF,

AND IT STRESSES ME OUT.

WE'LL MAKE IT SIMPLE.

ALL OF THEM, THAT'S A DOUBLE CD.

WE'RE DONE.

OKAY, NO, LET'S NOT TRY

TO DWELL ON SONGS UNLESS--

'CAUSE WE COULD BE

ON ONE SONG FOR AN HOUR

AND WE HAVE LIMITED TIME.

DEFINE:

WHAT NOT DWELL MEANS.

THERE'S NO TIME LIMIT,

JUST DON'T DWELL

ALL RIGHT,

PLAY "BE YOUR SOLDIER."

THE CHORUS JUST DOESN' DO IT FOR ME.

- THE SONG IS GREAT.

- BUT AS A SUBJECT MATTER,

I LIKE WHAT THE SONG

IS SAYING, LIKE--

IT DOESN'T DO IT FOR ME.

I DISAGREE, I THINK THE CHORUS

ACTUALLY IS GOOD.

I ACTUALLY LIKE THE VERSES.

I HEAR WHAT YOU'RE SAYING

ON THE CHORUS.

- JUST THAT ONE LITTLE--

I HEAR YOU,

I HEAR YOU.

THAT'S THE ONLY THING

THAT BOTHERS ME.

BUT I THINK IT'S A GREAT SONG

FOR THE ALBUM,

- BECAUSE I LOVE WHAT IT SAYS.

- I THINK IT'S DEFINITELY

A CONTENDER.

I CAN SING THIS:

WITH CONVICTION:

BECAUSE IT MEANS

SOMETHING TO ME.

I'M NOT COMFORTABLE WITH

CHANGING THE CHORUS

OF THIS SONG.

NO, NO, NO, DON'T-- YOU DON' HAVE TO LIKE DO THAT TO ME.

JUST CALM DOWN.

YOU'RE GETTING FLUSHED.

NICK'S GETTING RED.

- IT'S GOING UP TO HERE.

- I'M TELLING YOU,

I'M TELLING YOU

THAT THIS IS A BIG SONG.

PEOPLE GET-- F***ING,

IF IT'S NOT ON A RECORD,

WE COULD BE REGRETTING IT.

MY POINT IS IS:

I STILL DON'T LIKE IT.

WHETHER YOU CHANGE IT OR NOT,

I STILL DON'T LIKE IT.

- I'VE HEARD YOUR POINT.

- I KNOW, AND WE

SEE YOUR POINT.

ALL RIGHT,

NEXT SONG IS:

"SHOW ME WHA YOU'RE MADE OF."

SHOULD WE TALK ABOU THE SONG A LITTLE MORE?

NO. MOVE ON.

- LOOK AT YOU.

- YOU LOOK THE SAME.

I LOOK THE SAME.

OH, THANK YOU.
